You should not use Concerta if you have glaucoma, tics or Tourette’s syndrome, or severe anxiety, tension, or agitation. Methylphenidate may be habit-forming, and this medicine is a drug of abuse.

Stimulants have caused stroke, heart attack, and sudden death in people with high blood pressure, heart disease, or a heart defect. Do not use Concerta if you have used an MAO inhibitor in the past 14 days, such as isocarboxazid, linezolid, methylene blue injection, phenelzine, rasagiline, selegiline, or tranylcypromine. Concerta may cause new or worsening psychosis (unusual thoughts or behavior), especially if you have a history of depression, mental illness, or bipolar disorder.
