Excellent page from Kids Health.  This site is full of simple content that is quick and easy to navigate through.  The page has a few links to other resources, and other articles similar to it.  This site also has some cool graphics and colors.  Overall this site will tell you in a simple way the basics about Ritalin and Ritalin abuse.

This is a cool site with a few interesting graphics, but mostly text.  This document is comprehensive, and covers all aspects or Ritalin from definition to abuse.  Provided by Indiana University, this page offers a lot in the way of content and credible text, but very little in the way of interactive tools and links.  The audience base is wide, and some of the language is a little difficult, but if you can get past that, the quality of the content is impressive!

A neat site from on ADD. This is the most comprehensive coverage of Ritalin, but there is a lot of text and content.  The quality is very good, although the presentation of the content is not great. You will find out things you never knew. Good information here.
