I have a small breakfast issue. Ritalin LA 30 mg helps me till around 2pm when I get a bit tired for the rest of the day. I go to sleep early, I sleep quite ok but wake up around 3:30am and can't go back to sleep usually. I think it's too early to take meds, so I have a bit of breakfast and it helps me to go back to sleep for a few hours. This is why I have switched taking meds later in the morning, but is it ok to eat breakfast a few hours before taking meds? Then again eat again after an hour or so.

I was also wondering if it would be ok to have coffee in the afternoon when I get tired. I was told not to have coffee with the meds.

Ritalin LA has helped me to sleep better and it lowered my blood pressure.
