RubbahSlippahs Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Is there any pharmacy where I could buy Ritalin or Aderral for ADHD? Can someone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrry Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I understand it may be available through hospitals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 moving to the health forum as I suspect a prescription is required for this medication and the advice of one of the qualified health practitioners in that forum is probably best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumball Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Ritalin should not be given to a child without prior testing and diagnosis , some serious side effects have been found , the child needs to be under the supervision of a qualified person and the effects carefull monitored .

bina Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 sheryl, concerta is the slow release ritilin (at least in israel concerta means the slow release type) not the regular 10 mg four hours only pill... i know my kid is on regular ritilin since the concerta my friend's girl uses does not fit my child's needs... maybe concerta have more then one type? bina israel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Repeat: it is a controlled substance in Thailand and sale OTC is illegal. Both for the seller and the buyer. References to illegal activity have been deleted per forum rules. It is not, hiowever, an illegal substance and possession of it if you have a valid prescription = no problem. (To be safe keep it in container which shows presecriptibing doctor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLovin Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Is there any pharmacy where I could buy Ritalin or Aderral for ADHD?Can someone help me? Proper diet, exercise and discipline will do more than Ritalin will ever do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
