I am on Ritalin for a medical reason and was just wondering how much weight people lost while taking it and how long it took to lose the weight? Only real answers please... I don't need anyone telling me that I shouldn't use Ritalin for weight loss because I am not using it for weight loss... just curious about this side effect

depending if you abuse the drug then much weight will be lost but if you take it for your purpose then you can take it right after a main meal whenevr it is breakfast or dinner and yes u could still posiblly lose a little weight cuz itll still decrease alittle of your apetite but nothing severe you wouldnt notice a difference if tooken the right way to prevent weight loss.It takes a short period of time depending on your motabilism or how much your taking for a person using it for weight loss i dont wanna lie to you how many months or weeks it takes..
