swim suggests UTFSE, there are plenty of threads on this subject. or use erowid. sorry this doesn't answer your cats question but hopefully these resources will help.

UTFSE is an abbreviation which sort of means ninjaned suggests you to use the search engine of this forum
If you google for erowid you will find that too (not completely sure whether one is allowed to link to other websites in general, but this should help you right )

Swimmy's neighbour's rat uses up to 600mg , up 120mg in single dose

Im thinking, wouldnt that be fatal?It seems like alot.

It would definitely be very dangerous to a new user or someone who does 20-30mg's a day. But if that person slowly started upping their dosage, it is concievable their tolerance allows them to do up to 120mgs, several times a day. Although it certainly is a lot.

Thank you so much Rotten and Escape.My cats been really wondering about how much is crossing the line.Its nice to see people answering her question.Thank you so much.Any words of wisdom would be appreciated as to educate her on this.
Thanks again...

SWIM takes 104mg (2 54mg pills) and crushes them with pliers until its a jagged looking fucked up pill thingy then swallows! Most SWIM has ever done in a day was about 300 mg

[jill]

So swim crushes then swallows.Is that better then snorting{faster high?}Is it instant?
From what my cat is reading 300mg is alot but some do sooo much more.My cat thinks shes building a tolerance for this.Sometimes it worrys her.

Up to 700-1000 mg

Rottenfruit added 2 Minutes and 25 Seconds later...

Swimmy has used well over 1000mg in less then 24 hours , swimmy also rails sometimes up to 400mg per day of ritalin, swimmy's addaiction and tolernace to ritalin is bad and the dosage swimmy uses would kill a first timer

Snorting is better, Tolernace builds fast a new user needs maby 10-20mg to snort but a addaict like swimmy needs to rail 300mg in a single setting now.

Bioavaliability would need to be factored in. Results would vary according to method of administration.
Hypothetically speaking, 200㎍ to 300㎍, ingested orally, produces clinically-intended effects in subjects adjusted to methylphenidate.
Recreational use presumably entails the administration of a higher dose. Factoring in bioavailability, the clinically proper dosage of 200㎍ to 300㎍ would produce stronger effects if a parenteral route of administration were utilized. Research suggests in relation to enteral ingestion, much of the active substance does not cross the blood-brain barrier and that most of the substance is unaltered and is present in waste. It is estimated that the bioavailability pertaining to enteral routes of administration can be as low as 11%.
Theoretically, higher bioavailability can be achieved via utilization of a parenteral RoA. Intravenous or transmucosal (insufflation, rectal*) RoAs are examples, but can be dangerous due to the nature of methods that the aforementioned routes entail.

* By convention, rectal RoAs are defines at enteral, but the effect comes with dissolution and absorption of the drug via mucosal membranes.
