Breggin, M.D. Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology:"The "Just Say No To Drugs" campaign was aimed at discouraging children from experimenting with dangerous and addictive drugs such as amphetamine and Ritalin. Our society viewed with loathing those who "pushed" stimulant drugs on children. Yet today there are more children taking Ritalin and amphetamine from doctors than ever received them from the illegal pushers. Furthermore, the ready availability of prescribed stimulants had led to their increasing illegal use by children and youth. What has happened to our society's values? How can we be so blind to the implications of the widespread prescribing of stimulants? Does a drug become "safe" simply because it is prescribed by a doctor? Does "pushing" drugs on children become legitimate simply because it is done by drug manufacturers? The answers to these questions are complex--but the most important step is to start asking the right questions. The following resources can assist in that process." Peter R. Breggin, M.D."Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology 4628 Chestnut Street, Bethesda, Maryland 20814 http://www.breggin.com/ritalin.html ******************************************************
Why to Avoid RITALIN® (methylphenidate), healthysource.com:"Though many experts do not agree on the cause of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD), the mainstay of conventional treatment of ADD/ADHD is medication; usually stimulant medication such as Ritalin (methylphenidate), Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine), Desoxyn (methamphetamine) or Cylert (pemoline). When stimulants are not effective, children may be given tricyclic antidepressants. (22) It's no wonder that millions of parents across the United States are overwhelmed and feeling trapped within a very bad situation: Not only have their children been diagnosed as having ADD/ADHD, but the prescribed treatment usually consists of powerful stimulant drugs." ******************************************************
on Non-Medical Use of Ritalin (methylphenidate), Indiana Prevention Resource Center:"A familiar stimulant drug, long used to treat hyperactivity in children, is quickly becoming the drug abuse "hot topic" in the American Midwest. Reports of Ritalin (methylphenidate) abuse have taken center stage in television specials and news magazine articles in the fall of 1995. Prescription tablets, which produce mild stimulant effects when taken as directed and at usual prescription doses, can create powerful stimulant effects and serious health risks when crushed and then snorted like cocaine, or injected like heroin." ******************************************************
Methylphenidate, Internet Mental Health:"Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), previously known as Attention-Deficit Disorder. Other terms being used to describe this behavioral syndrome include: minimal Brain Dysfunction in Children, Hyperkinetic Child Syndrome, Minimal Brain Damage, Minimal Cerebral Dysfunction, Minor Cerebral Dysfunction.
Methylphenidate is indicated as an integral part of a total treatment program which typically includes other remedial measures (psychological, educational, social) for a stabilizing effect in children with a behavioral syndrome characterized by the following group of developmentally inappropriate symptoms: moderate-to-severe distractibility, short attention span, hyperactivity, emotional lability, and impulsivity. The diagnosis of this syndrome should not be made with finality when these symptoms are only of comparatively recent origin. Non-localizing (soft) neurological signs, learning disability, and abnormal EEG may or may not be present, and a diagnosis of CNS dysfunction may or may not be warranted." ******************************************************
Methylphenidate (Ritalin), The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA):"Methylphenidate is a medication prescribed for individuals (usually children) who have an abnormally high level of activity or attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). According to the National Institute of Mental Health, about 3 to 5 percent of the general population has the disorder, which is characterized by agitated behavior and an inability to focus on tasks. Methylphenidate also is occasionally prescribed for treating narcolepsy." ******************************************************
On Beyond Ritalin....
By Carol Watkins, M.D. and Glenn Brynes, Ph.D, M.D. Northern County Psychiatric Associates:"Said Debra Ann Dilly O'Malley O'Clad
Who had AD/HD and wow was it was bad,
"I've tried Ritalin in the morning and night
Doses low, doses high and it just isn't right.
I've altered dose intervals; tried the SR.
I've gone on-line lots; talked to friends near and far.
I've learned all there is on this darned ADD.
But my mind still can't focus, just how can this be?
My children and husband are ready to bust
I think I'll just give up and say I'm a klutz." ******************************************************
Parents Against Ritalin:"What is P.A.R.?
P.A.R. is a international non-profit association of parents who are committed to educating the public about the natural alternatives available for managing ADD/ADHD, otherwise known as Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
P.A.R. is NOT about wiping out Ritalin from the face of the earth. There are some children for whom Ritalin may be their best option. However, there are countless others that are being drugged unnecessarily. Many would welcome using a natural approach but don't have the opportunity to do so because they don't know about it. That's where P.A.R. comes in, as an educational resource." ******************************************************
Why Ritalin Rules, By MARY EBERSTADT, Policy Review, Published by the Heritage Foundation:"Ritalin, Ritalin, seizure drugs, Ritalin," in the words of its sing-song opening. "So goes the rhythm of noontime" for a typical school nurse in East Boston "as she trots her tray of brown plastic vials and paper water cups from class to class, dispensing pills into outstretched young palms." For this nurse, as for her counterparts in middle- and upper-middle class schools across the country, the day's routine is now driven by what the Times dubs "a ticklish question," to wit: "With the number of children across the country taking Ritalin estimated at well over three million, more than double the 1990 figure, who should be giving out the pills?" ******************************************************
Death From Ritalin, www.ritalindeath.com:"Hello, I'm here to let you know about the death of our fourteen-Year-old Son Matthew. He died on March 21, 2000.

Long Term Use of Methylphenidate (Ritalin). According to Dr. Ljubisa Dragovic, The chief pathologist at Oakland County Medical Examiners office in Michigan said upon autopsy, Matthews heart showed clear signs of small vessel damage, the type caused by stimulant drugs like amphetamines." ******************************************************

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
