Use Ritalin only if it has already been prescribed by a board-certified physician, and pay attention to when you take it relative to studying or learning. The key protocol is to match dosing to the drug’s duration of action and whether you want the effect to support learning before, during, or after the material, so the cognitive boost lines up with the task instead of wearing off at the wrong time.

The ones that I think most of you will be familiar with are the drugs that increase dopamine and norepinephrine for the treatment of ADHD. And I did an entire episode of the Huberman Lab podcast about those compounds, things like Adderall, things like Ritalin.
