Hi Ya

"What seems to be being emplied is that cocaine is a "Bad" drug, so Ritalin must be to"

cocaine is one of the most psychological addictive substances there is.

Give rats unlimited access to Heroin 1/3 of them will ignore everything until it kills them.

Give rats unlimited to Cocaine 90% will ignore everything else till death-Most Humans are euphoria addicts.

While taken properly, under medical guidence, Ritalin has been used for decades, successfully by many-ADD/HD, Narcolepsy.

But it has a very similar mode of action to Coke. When experienced IV Cocaine users are shot (IVed) with Methylphenidate-they cannot tell the difference-fact.

It can be a very usefull med, but should be treated with caution.

The similarities are well known-hence why it's a Sch 11 med-as with Cocaine Hcl


Cheers
