8. Methylphenidate (Ritalin)
Addiction rate: 1.25
It is not fair to give children Ritalin to manage the ADHD (a disease called “hyperactivity”), expect from them to change their behavior and then grow up and simply stop using it. Many doctors are warning that even 19% of children take prescribed drugs and that, although it is not harmful during the first years of usage, this leads to addiction and many other changes in their behavior and health.
