In Reply to: Ritalin: Brand vs. Generic posted by Bill W

Hi Bill,

I found that the name brand Ritalin was far more consistent and
effective than the generic. On the other hand, if it the generic works
OK for you, it is cheaper.

Some generic medicines work as well as name brand for me, but Ritalin is
not one of them.

Be careful of advice from pharmacists. Sometimes they actually make
more money on generics than name brand or may be otherwise pressured by
insurance companies to use generics.
