Question by CariChick: Do drugs like Ritalin and Aderrall (ADD medication) really help college students get better grades?
I remember hearing on the news a while back that a lot of college students were taking these drugs to help them keep focus in school. Does it really work?

Best answer:

Answer by D.D.
Like any drug that is misused, ritalin /aderrall, are very dangerous when misused. If they seem to help someone ‘get better grades’, it is not without a great cost, since aderrall is as addictive as cocaine and has side effects.
So, while a person may think it helps them, in fact their life is going backwards and they end up with a drug addiction , poor health, and criminals, since all misuse of perscription and other drugs are felonies.
So, it may be popular, but very expensive in so many ways.
