Anorexia methylphenidate

Methylphenidate is a piperidine derivative, structurally related to amphetamine, but a milder central nervous system stimulant. However, large doses produce symptoms of generalized central nervous system stimulation and convulsions. It is more active than amphetamine as an antidepressant, as a treatment for overdosage of depressant drugs, and in exacerbating schizophremc symptoms. Occasionally, anorexia, nausea, dry mouth, nervousness, insomnia, dizziness, and palpitation have been recorded.
