How should this medicine be used?

Dexmethylphenidate comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken twice a day, at least 4 hours apart, with or without food. To help you remember to take dexmethylphenidate, take it around the same time every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand.

Your doctor will probably start you on a low dose of dexmethylphenidate and gradually increase your dose, not more than once a week.

Before taking dexmethylphenidate, ask your pharmacist or doctor for a copy of the manufacturer's information for the patient and read it carefully.
