MethylphenidateThis page contains recent news articles, when available, and an overview of Methylphenidate but does not offer medical advice. You should contact your physician with regard to any health issues or concerns.Overview: Methylphenidate (when available) Methylphenidate, a central nervous system stimulant chemically similar to the amphetamines, is used to treat narcolepsy, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, post-stroke depression or other depressive disorders. Children with attention deficit disorders Mechanism Of Action: Methylphenidate blocks dopamine uptake in central adrenergic neurons by blocking dopamine transport or carrier proteins. Methylphenidate acts at the brain stem arousal system and the cerebral cortex and causes increased sympathomimetic activity in the central nervous system. Alteration of serotonergic pathways via changes in dopamine transport may result.
