A member asked:
What would happen if i took ritalin (methylphenidate) with phentermine at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't do it: Phentermine and Ritalin (methylphenidate) are both stimulant drugs and should not be taken together. This can cause dangerous elevation in heart rate and blood pressure causing acute stress on the heart. Severe agitation, and insomnia can also occur.
