Correction, teeth grinding is a side effect for extacy, and yes, ritalin and speed have a similar chem compound. As for the question, talk to your doctor about a ritalin alternative, ritalin has why to many negative side effects. I beleive adderal ( im not 100% sure) would be the best alternative.
My son is grinding his teeth while taking ritalin is this a posssible side effect or is this the wrong drug?
my answer was better Report It

Here is a link with all the side effects.
Speak to his doctor and educate yourself on why he is taking it and what he has been diagnosed with.
If the teeth grinding persists ..speak to a dentist about a mouth guard
Reply:Teeth grinding is a side effect of taking speed, so isn't Ritalin basically the same chemical as speed? that's what i've been told. Maybe his dose is too high? does it help with his behaviour?
Reply:if hes stressed he could be grinding anyway... but yes ritalin can make you grind your teeth... you can talk to your pediatrician or the pharmacist about it also.... if they suggest hes just stressed buy a mouth guard for him to wear at night to protect his teeth... you can get em at walgreens, cvs, walmart just about anywhere... Good luck!
Reply:Ritalin is a stimulant drug. Yes it is similar to speed.
Children's systems work the opposite to adults.
These drugs slow the system down in children.
My sister has a 9 yr old with adhd and we found coffee works good when he's hyper.
You need to discuss the teeth grinding with his doctor. Is this when he is sleeping or during the day ? You can often get information from Dr. Scott public questions and answers email. The email address is doctorscotts@yahoo.com
Reply:Yes teeth grinding can be a possible side affect to the drug. Consult your doctor and dentist on ways to deal with this.
Reply:please stop giving your child drugs. no child needs to be taking ritalin or anything like that. Try giving him some attention.
