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!
never even occurred to me not to drink alcohol with my Ritalin. not like I wash the pills down with a beer, but certainly later in the afternoon I’d have a smoke, weed, and a beer or two and everything is fine. why wouldn’t you be able to do that?
