For me the SR version of Ritalin lasts up to 8 hours. I know that because when i take it after 2 pm, i can't get to sleep at 10 mp.

> I found the regular ritalin to last about 2.5 to 3 hours, the sustained release, about 4-4.5. I took three doses of the short acting, and two of the sr. I then switched to adderall--I usualy take 2 doses, which seem to last around 6 hours. If I have a very early start (5 am), I sometimes dose 3 times that day. Still, even when the adderall wears off, I don't have the let-down, or rebound, that I did with ritalin.
