I took a half of a 10mg xr ritalin on sunday morning, trying to get my self going. I went to see my pain management doctor today and I had to give a urine sample. Do you think it has had time to flush from my system? I figured they was just seeing if I was taking the meds that i have been prescribed. Anybody have any comments?

Pain management doctors test for everything and while I do not know the half life of this drug, I am guessing it may still have been detectable in your system. If so, you violated the contract you signed when you entered pain management and you may be released from the practice. I know that my PM doc checks for lots of different drugs, including things like Ritalin, to make sure that I am not getting meds from any other doctors that he does not know about. If you have a prescription for it, you may be able to talk to them about it if the drug test comes back positive. If not, then you may be looking for a new PM doctor
