Background

Dexmethylphenidate is the dextrorotary form of methylphenidate introduced in 2002. It is a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) and thus a psychostimulant. It is used for treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The d-isomer is thought to have greater effect with fewer side effects than the l-isomer or the racemic mixture.

Indication

Dexmethylphenidate is used as a treatment for ADHD, ideally in conjunction with psychological, educational, behavioral or other forms of treatment.
