According to many studies, methylphenidate (available in Concerta) can lead to psychological dependence, especially in people who abuse it. This substance has a stimulating effect on the central nervous system, which can make some people feel more energized, increase their activity and experience feelings of euphoria. Therefore, there is a risk that individuals may abuse methylphenidate to get these effects, which can lead to psychological dependence.
However, under medical supervision and following dosage recommendations, methylphenidate is relatively safe and effective in treating ADHD.
It is important for people taking methylphenidate, especially those with a history of substance dependence, to be aware of the potential risks of addiction and to follow their doctor's instructions to avoid abusing the drug. If there is a concern that someone may develop an addiction to methylphenidate, it is important to consult with a doctor quickly to adjust the treatment plan.
