Is it advisable to take 8-hour concerta twice a day?

Yes: You can determine how long the effect of your first dose lasts. You can take the next dose 1/2 hour before that. You should consult your prescriber so that you can be monitored appropriately.

Concerta: If second dose taken after 3 or 4 p.m., it might interfere with sleep.
