Has anyone tried these 2 together? I met with a new PDoc (therapist) twice so far, but we haven't yet discussed meds and I just realized I am going to be short a few pills of dextro before my next appt.; so, instead of taking my 2nd 10 mg. dose of dextro today, I took a Ritalin before it [dextro] wore off.
I never liked the Ritalin too much (still have leftovers from February), but I took it 4 hours or so after I took a dextro - I feel it greatly improved my concentration as opposed to just the dextro.
Ritalin is so short acting and gives you a down feeling when you come off it. Isn't there some kind of slow release version of Ritalin out there?
Or maybe it's just that the dextro is losing its effect on me. I just can't afford to take a dextro holiday right now with too many upcoming deadlines.
Several times I thought the dexto is better for motivation; Ritalin (and Adderall for those who can tolerate) for concentration. The 2 together? Hmmm....
