Yes and No: There are homeopathic medicines which are "like" ritalin, (methylphenidate) but they are not used the way you might expect them to be. In homeopathy your case is taken in a different, more comprehensive way before a medicine is prescribed. And, what you need may not be related to Ritalin (methylphenidate) at all. Instead, your prescription is tailored to you and the way you suffer what you suffer. There are over 3-4 k remedies.

None: There are no homeopathic medications that have been shown the equal of Ritalin (methylphenidate) in double blind controlled comparative studies. there are herbal medications that contain stimulants such as ephedrin and caffeine,. but it is difficult to titrate a dose that is effective and safe.
