i’m not sure, but i don’t think that Ritalin would be as addictive as other things, but make sure your friend has all the facts down about how powerful it is and stuff, you never want to guesstimate how much you should use

Answer by Johnny
Uhh, I don’t know what you mean by Meth..

Methamphetamine

or

Methylphenidate

??

If you’re talking about Methylphenidate, which is Ritalin, then the side effects are :

“Reported side effects include difficulty sleeping, stomach aches, diarrhea, headaches, lack of hunger (leading to weight loss) and dry mouth, in some cases also including death.

Less common side effects include palpitations, high blood pressure and pulse changes.”

“Concerns about illicit use of the drug (when crushed and snorted, the effects of methylphenidate are somewhat similar to cocaine.”

They’re both stimulants. Tell your friend not to underestimate the power of the drug… and to be careful with it. That’ll prevent a lot of trouble.
