7.5mg sounds like a fairly small dose. I don't know how big of a person you are body mass wise, but I usually take 20mg at a time. Sometimes 10 if its getting late in the day and I don't want to be kept up. I usually take it twice a day. Maybe if you took a higher dose you could take it on a full stomach. Ritalin works great for me for several months, then I have to take a vacation from it for a while. Have you considered Concerta? Concerta has a much smoother delivery. It is Ritalin just in a slow release form. Ritalin is a really great med for me.
