About once a month I'll hit the tanning booth.  About six minutes and
I'm nice and tan.  I'm not one of those nuts who goes every day and
ends upp a prune by 30.  Trust me I'm aware of the dangers and I read
up on the subnject.
My question, is there and adverse effects while taking Ritalin and
tanning?  I always made sure I hadn't taken a Ritalin for 24 hours
before tanning.  Sometimes more.  Is that a neccessarey step?

No,  The whole deal with tanning and Ritalin is that the drug may make
you more susceptible to the sun.  A lot of meds are like that, like
birth control pills.  They will just make you tan or burn faster in the
sun.
