Can ritalin (methylphenidate) cause sudden movements (that occur a few times a day) in the jaw after a year of use (even when no ritalin (methylphenidate) was taken for a few days)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Ritalin (methylphenidate) along with other stimulants can cause or worsen tremors and tics, especially in those with tourette's disorder or tic spectrum disorders. Discuss other treatment options with your dr. If you suffer from adhd or depression.
