Description
Concerta is a brand name for methylphenidate hydrochloride, a central nervous system stimulant used primarily to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children and adults. Each tablet contains 36mg of methylphenidate hydrochloride in an extended-release formulation designed to provide a controlled release of the medication throughout the day.
How It Works
Methylphenidate hydrochloride works by affecting the chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control. It blocks the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine, two neurotransmitters, by neurons. This increases the concentration of these neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft, thereby enhancing their effects on the brain. The extended-release formulation of Concerta provides a steady release of the medication over 12 hours, helping to manage symptoms throughout the day.Indications
