According to this doctor, 27mg concerta = 6mg ritalin 3x daily.

I’m an adult & weigh ~75kg. I’ve tried 27 & 36mg concerta. No nausea or headaches (I always eat a full breakfast when I take it). I do get a strange (but not uncomfortable) sensation inside my head in the first few hrs. 36mg works well for me, but 27 doesn’t do much. I’d like to try 54, and try ritalin SR and generic methylphenidate for times when I don’t need the effect of the concerta for the whole day.
