My 13 year old daughter is taking part in time trials this week in order for her to run for the county.A few months ago she was diagnosed as having ADHD and was prescribed Ritalin.She is currently taking 10 mg twice daily.Does anyone know if this is a banned substance at this level of competition?And if so would it be safe for her to not take any on this particular day.asking because I can't get hold of her doctors for over a week due to them being on leave.
Answer:
Ritalin is not currently banned in competitions so she should be fine to continue taking it and compete. If you need to seek advice about her skipping a dose then you could speak to a Pharmacist at a chemist or maybe phone NHS Direct?
