What can you take to counteract stimulant effects of Ritalin I've heard large doses of Vitamin C helps?
No vitamin C does not work directly, because Methylphenidate's chemical structure does not interact with the serotonin receptors of the brain like amphetamine based stimulants do, but rather interact with the dopamine receptors directly. But, if the pill was swallowed then Vitamin C will break it down faster, which will not counteract the effects, but rather increase the intensity of the effects, but shorten the length of time the effects will take place. Truthfully there is no counteracting vitamin that I am aware of you can take. B12 and Potassium(Bananas, mangos, Blueberries), Vitamin C and plenty of water will cause the body to break it down faster, but that is all.
