I am fully aware that I shouldn’t drink alcohol while on Ritalin, however I do sometimes cook with it, so I was curious on if that’s a major problem, as the relative quantity of alcohol is much lower than when drinking it. Say for instance a sauce that’s 1/5 Sake (15% alcohol) of which you then use around 30-40ml. That’s barely any alcohol, so should I be worried and maybe not take my meds when I’m planning on making food containing alcohol, or is it fine if I just avoid beers and wines and such?

Edit: The consensus seems to be that it’s fine, especially if it cooks longer, because it’s a low amount and at high heat the alcohol cooks away anyways. Thank you everyone for your input!

    Spent my 20’s and half my 30’s as a raging alcoholic pretending to be a chef who also survived on adderall, cocaine and cigs. Dont ever underestimate what the human biology is capable of handling. Dont cut yourself short, take ritalin so you can drink more. Then dr8nk more so you can take more ritalin. Rinse repeat and tell your shrink your mama didnt raise no pussies and that you want the good shit amphetamines from now on.

    Or do the opposite of everything i did if you wanna live… idk healthy and long. 💁‍♂️
