298-59-9
C14H19NO2·HCl
White to off-white crystalline powder.
Methylphenidate Hydrochloride is a central nervous system stimulant primarily used in the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. It works by increasing the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly dopamine and norepinephrine, which help improve attention, focus, and impulse control. The drug is widely recognized for its ability to enhance cognitive function and reduce hyperactive behavior in individuals with ADHD.
Treatment of ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)
Methylphenidate is most commonly prescribed for ADHD in both children and adults. It helps increase attention, focus, and impulse control by affecting the brain's neurotransmitter systems. As a result, it significantly improves academic performance, behavior, and social functioning in patients with ADHD.
Treatment of Narcolepsy
Methylphenidate is also used to treat narcolepsy, a sleep disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and sudden sleep attacks. By stimulating the central nervous system, the drug helps to reduce excessive daytime sleepiness and improves wakefulness.
Cognitive Enhancement (Off-label use)
In some cases, methylphenidate may be prescribed off-label to enhance cognitive performance, particularly in individuals with cognitive impairments or those seeking to improve focus in demanding environments such as education or high-performance workplaces.
Adjunctive Therapy in Certain Psychiatric Conditions
Methylphenidate may be used as an adjunct in the treatment of certain mood or psychiatric disorders where enhancing cognitive function is beneficial.
