Ritalin is made by Novartis (the brand is owned and historically manufactured under Novartis’s methylphenidate products).
Yes. Methylphenidate is sold both as brand-name products and as generic equivalents, and those generics can be made by multiple companies depending on the country, supplier, and specific formulation (for example, immediate-release vs extended-release).
The manufacturer can vary by product strength and formulation. To confirm, check the box or the prescribing information for the specific Ritalin variant you have (for example, Ritalin immediate-release vs Ritalin LA/other extended-release products).
