Has anyone got any proof of the efficacy of ritalinRitalin Ritalin la Ritalin-sr for the treatment of treatment resistant depression? I am currently on 40mg of Celexa. I have been taking it for 7 mths with no improvement of my condition. I am hoping that the addition of ritalinRitalin Ritalin la Ritalin-sr may provide relief to this chronic depression.Any input would be greatly received. Thanks
Acually a good question. There is some reports that RitalinRitalin Ritalin la Ritalin-sr may be benificial for Refractory depression, but the debate on that issue continues, as true effacacy has not yet been proven.
Ritalin does have a mechinism that does help with focus and alertness so I would not be supprised if it was effective for some forms of Depression. To what degree I can't say for sure.
Are you also medication resistant too?
