For those of you who use meds, in particular methylphenidate:

Do you consume caffeine? What's your experience been with it?

Yes. I picked up the habit at my (former) job (IT). So I drink a few cups throughout the day. I don't really feel anything unless overdo it and drink like 4 cups before noon, in which case I get slightly jittery. But I can't say I've noticed any "synergic" issues from combining equasym & caffeine.

Come to think of it, my meds are specifically slow-release. There are versions of methylphenidate that act more immediately.
