Allegedly performance-enhancing drugs are many on the market. However, one drug that is considered by many to be a real miracle drug is the prescription drug methylphenidate or colloquially also called Ritalin. It is actually used for the treatment of ADHD patients, but more and more healthy people are also resorting to it and hope that it will improve their ability to concentrate in order to cope better with everyday life and work. But not only that! More and more often, young people in particular are using the drug to party through the night and feel euphoric.
Common side effects of the "people's drug" are, for example, loss of appetite, heart disorders or serious sleep disturbances. One must also be aware that the misuse of the drug is a criminal offense and one can become addicted similar to other drugs. What must be said, however, is that it is very easy, especially for young people, to have the drug prescribed by a doctor, as they sometimes prescribe it to non-ADHD patients as well.
So it can be said that medications like Ritalin should not be underestimated and should be taken responsibly, because in the end we are all responsible for our own health. It is available by prescription.
