CONCERTA METHYLPHENIDATE 54MG 30TABS XR

 

Concerta is one of the medications commonly used to treat attention deficit disorder, hyperactivity disorder, and attention deficit disorder (ADHD). This medication has its own features and characteristics that are important to understand before using it.

What is Concerta, and what is it used for?

Concerta is a medication that includes 54 mg of methylphenidate, which is a central nervous system stimulant. The drug is intended to treat ADHD as well as narcolepsy. It helps to improve attention, concentration and impulse control in patients suffering from these disorders.

Structure and mechanism of action of Concerta

Methylphenidate, the main active ingredient in Concerta, affects the central nervous system by increasing the concentration of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. This leads to improved prefrontal cortex function, which helps improve attention and reduce hyperactivity.

Dosage

Concerta is available in a variety of doses, including 54 mg. The drug is available as oblong, controlled-release tablets that provide a gradual release of methylphenidate in the body throughout the day. This allows patients to avoid having to take the medication multiple times. Concerta tablets are taken in the morning without chewing or crushing in order to maximize the effects of treatment.

Concerta dosage, as with any medication, plays an important role in the effectiveness and safety of treatment.

Medication dosages:

Concerta 18 mg or 1/3 tablet: This is the starting dosage often prescribed for children and adults starting treatment. It may be increased later on, depending on the response to the medication.

Concerta 27 mg or ½ tablet: The 27 mg dosage may be prescribed if the initial dosage is not effective enough. The optimal dosage should be determined by the physician, taking into account the patient's response.

Concerta 36 mg: This dosage represents a further increase in the concentration of methylphenidate and may be prescribed if greater control of ADHD symptoms is needed.

Concerta 54 mg: This is the maximum dosage of Concerta, which is rarely prescribed but may be recommended for those patients who have not achieved adequate symptom control with lower dosages.
