Wondering if it was possible some how....
Lets review the facts:
1. People who developed this are geniuses
2. CONCERTA uses osmotic pressure to deliver methylphenidate HCl at a controlled rate.
3. CONCERTA comprises an osmotically active trilayer core surrounded by a semipermeable membrane with an immediate-release drug overcoat. The trilayer core is composed of two drug layers containing the drug and excipients, and a push layer containing osmotically active components. There is a precision-laser drilled orifice on the drug-layer end of the tablet.
4. Chemically, methylphenidate HCl is d,l (racemic) methyl α-phenyl 2-piperidineacetate hydrochloride.
5. CONCERTA also contains the following inert ingredients: butylated hydroxytoluene, carnauba wax, cellulose acetate, hypromellose, lactose, phosphoric acid, poloxamer, polyethylene glycol, polyethylene oxides, povidone, propylene glycol, sodium chloride, stearic acid, succinic acid, synthetic iron oxides, titanium dioxide, and triacetin.
So in conclusion, is there any way to get the methylphenidate HCl out of CONCERTA without a lab? Any comments on how this would work or how big of a dumbass i am are appreciated.
P.S, i know this is a waste of time... but im very bored.
