Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Methylphenidate is a Central Nervous System (CNS) stimulant. A CNS stimulant works by acting on certain chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) to increase their activity in the brain. Methylphenidate acts on two neurotransmitters particularly, called Dopamine and Nor-epinephrine. It prevents the re-absorption of these chemicals by nerves as well as their transport between nerve cells. This produces an accumulation of Dopamine and Nor-epinephrine, which helps decrease the symptoms of ADHD. Methylphenidate is a part of a treatment protocol involving counselling, medication, and tools to improve focus.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • This medicine should not be used concomitantly or within 2 weeks of using Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) like Selegiline, Rasagiline, etc. It may cause a potentially fatal condition called Serotonin Syndrome.
  • Methylphenidate can block the metabolism of certain medications, like anti-depressants, anti-convulsants, and coumarin anticoagulants (blood thinners).
  • Methylphenidate decreases the effectiveness of medications used to decrease blood pressure.
  • This medication should be stopped prior to elective surgery or dental procedures, as it can interact with anaesthetic agents and cause adverse effects.
  • This medicine should not be used with other medications that affect dopamine, as it can cause increased dopamine-related side effects.
  • Methylphenidate should not be used with medicines that increase blood pressure as it can result in hypertensive crises.
  • Inform your doctor regarding your current medications at the time of prescription of Inspiral.
