Ritalin Lawsuit: Learn More About A Dangerous Drug

According to the Food and Drug Administration, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Drugs like Ritalin (Methylphenidate) may cause harmful side effects in children and adults.

Brand name Ritalin, manufactured by Novartis, is often prescribed to treat those who have more difficulty focusing, controlling actions, and remaining still or quiet than other people who are the same age.
