Abstract in brief

  • Methylphenidate is a primary treatment for ADHD in both children and adults, but due to its similarities to drugs like methamphetamine and cocaine, there are concerns about its potential for abuse.
  • Research shows that methylphenidate has some abuse potential, as it shares certain effects with other stimulants, but it can still be effective when used as prescribed, especially alongside behavioral therapies.
  • The FDA has shown interest in developing abuse-deterrent formulations of methylphenidate to reduce its misuse, reflecting ongoing public health concerns about stimulant abuse.
