Consumer:There is some clinical evidence that methylphenidate may lower the seizure threshold, occasionally even in patients without a history of seizures or prior EEG abnormalities. Therapy with methylphenidate (racemic) or dexmethylphenidate (the more pharmacologically active d-enantiomer) should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to seizures. The medication should be discontinued if seizures occur during its use.
