This is how Rephenidate can change your day
How does the medicine work? ⏳
Rephenidate works relatively quickly, and may relieve symptoms of attention deficit disorder within a short time of taking it. ⏰ Its effect helps improve focus and concentration, and helps us cope with tasks that require higher concentration. In many cases, the drug reduces symptoms of restlessness and contributes to improved academic and occupational performance. On a deeper level, Rephenidate affects the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain responsible for transmitting messages between nerve cells, thus helping to temporarily balance brain processes related to focus and attention. Our ability to concentrate improves, and we enjoy a sense of alertness and control over our daily progress.
Scientific explanation of the mechanism of action of Rafinidate
The active ingredient in the drug is methylphenidate. After taking it, the substance is broken down mainly in the liver and helps increase the activity of dopamine and norepinephrine in the synapses in the brain. The focus of the effect is on brain areas related to executive functions and attention. As a result, electrical activity improves in areas that affect the ability to concentrate and control impulsive behavior. The biochemical breakdown process of the active ingredient is based on dedicated enzymes, and ultimately inactive metabolites are excreted through the kidneys. In this way, the drug reduces symptoms that interfere with daily functioning, and allows access to cognitive therapy or behavioral training more effectively.
How to use correctly?
- The dosage should be adjusted according to age, weight, and severity of symptoms – children (age six and older) usually start with an initial dosage of 5–10 mg per day, while the dosage for adults may start at 10 mg per day and reach up to 60 mg per day (according to the doctor's instructions).
- The medication can be taken with or without food, but it is recommended to avoid foods high in caffeine near the time of taking it.
- It is recommended to take it in the morning or afternoon, to reduce the chance of difficulty sleeping in the evening.
- ⚠️ The maximum permitted dose according to the Ministry of Health is 60 mg per day, unless the doctor instructs otherwise.
Possible side effects
- Decreased appetite – a relatively common phenomenon, but usually mild. It is worth paying attention to any change in weight.
- Headaches or dizziness – symptoms that occur occasionally. It is recommended to drink enough water and rest when necessary.
- Difficulty sleeping – a less common phenomenon, but it does exist, especially when treatment is given late at night.
- Increased heart rate – This is a rarer phenomenon, but if you experience it significantly, it is recommended to seek medical advice.
- Symptoms of anxiety or nervousness – when they appear, it is recommended to talk to the therapist about adjusting the dosage or combining it with cognitive therapy.
In any case of unusual side effects or worsening of personal feelings, ⚠️ contact your doctor immediately.
