does cannabis and or thc interfere with ritalin effect?

hi all

i haven't found anything very conclusive or informative, but there's some mention of ritalin and cannabis attaching to the same cb1 receptors??? if so, can pot out compete ritalin, rendering ritalin ineffective?

I don't smoke pot a lot, but i do take thc or pot almost every single night... usually just enough to sleep - sometimes more, lol. never in the day. if i smoke too much at night, say, half or a whole joint, i feel it the next day. a pot hangover.

i'm also definitely interested in people who notice no effect and are happily indulging in both ritalin and pot.....

20 years ago, i tried ritalin, and could barely tolerate 5 or 10 mg. i'd get jittery, and noticed it could really focus me. now, since i take thc or pot, i'm up to 20mg... i don't notice many or any side effects --- it seems to help my focus. we've been upping my dose.............5 ...10......15 over three months... now i just started 20.  

thanks so much. stay healthy.

    I have never noticed a deterioration after ritalin and weed. As far as I know, they work in different fields. I also smoke either in the evening after work or before going to bed. Medical marijuana is still the best thing that copes with my moral and physical fatigue. Sometimes headaches due to stress do not allow me to think about nothing but pain. I usually don't have a hangover after weed since I buy it from the [link removed by moderator] that I could find. Maybe because of bad varieties or just a low-quality product, you will feel a deterioration in your condition. In any case, marijuana affects each person differently.
