My child had to switch from Medikinet removed to the Zentiva version. Teachers said the generic is hardly working at all.
Can it really be so much different? Both claim to have a 50 % instant-release part.
Medikinet removed has a similar curve as Ritalin LA with a stronger peak between hour 3 and 6. The Zentiva isn’t even documented that well.

Looks like the post is referring to a Medikinet product that could also be described as delayed release or modified release, instead of the word which was censored in the post. In case anyone else was confused like me.
