805775 tn?1259592170 Yes adderall is an ADHD med., but it is also used for narcolepsy. Adderall should give you energy and at the same time supress your appetite.
Avatar f tn 3 years ago I was told I had Mitral vale prolapse my doctor said it was most likely because of my anxiety and did not seemed worried. I still take adderall and he still prescribes it even though I have MPV should I be worried? Has anyone else taken it and have MVP too? Thanks.
Avatar n tn He will be 12 in a couple of months. He is not on adderall. Folcalin, folcalin xr and respidone.
Avatar f tn My friend is 33 wks pregnant n taken adderall and concerts, will the baby fail the drug test at the hospital when its born from her taken this medicine?
Avatar f tn My son who is 9 years old was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 6, we have tried adderall, aderral xr, medate, medadate xr and now have gone throught all MG of daytrana patch. He is also taking .2 clonidine at night to help sleep. He also has ODD, my question is what medication can we try him on now that will MAYBE help with both? We have tried the Tenex smallest dose possiblr 1/4 pill in am. And he just could not function.
Avatar f tn Several months ago we reported he was having concentration/focusing issues that were being reported to us by his teachers. We went back to the dr. and he was prescribed Adderall XR 5mg, then 10mg. then 15mg. He was easily frustrated/aggitatedy , so we decided to take him off the med. It has been week 3 and his behaviour at school has not been good. He's receiving notes in his agenda almost daily of talking and having to be corrected more than once.
Avatar m tn [Ok I have a quick question I've been prescribed a generic version of adderall 10mg once a day. From what I read this is amphetamine. My prescription ran out and I used a concerta my concern is if I have a urine test or hair follicle test will the methylphenidate in the concerta show up? Concerta is not my prescribed medicine.
305005 tn?1358728290 hi, my boys both have adhd. they just put them on adderall trying it out. can anybody tell me anything on first hand about it. they was one the daytrana patch and i think that made there symtoms worse. thanks!!
Avatar f tn I was taking an antidepressant before starting adderall.
5973125 tn?1378575863 My boyfriend wanted to get back on Adderall and I don't want him too. He starred a new job and wanted to be able to concentrate better. I don't not agree with taking these sort of drugs. I found that taking vitamin c, vitamin b complex (with all the vitamin b's) and omega 3 pills help ADD. I wondered if anyone here has tried them. Please don't try to talkme into him taking Adderall. With all due respect I just don't believe in it period.
Avatar f tn I would like to know how 70mg Vyvanse compares mg wise to Adderall. Adderall instant release didn't seem to help me, what is the best form of this medication to take, sustained or what is the other one besides instant release? What is a MAO inhibitor --no one told me I couldn't mix--maybe that explains the dizziness. Just read a post of a person on both Vyvanese and Adderall--my doctor said no to me. What about Desoxyn?
Avatar n tn After reading many stories on-line of pregnant women taking adderall, I decided to start taking it again after the 3rd month at 1/2 the dose, which is 10mg a day. Does anyone believe that after the crucial period of development, lets say in your 6th month, would it be okay to do things you wouldn't do in the beginning? Like, take your meds (adderall), or have a glass of chardonnay? Once every weekend? I am in conflict, being that I am 6 months today.
Avatar m tn I have been taking 20 mg amphetamine, generic adderall, periodically for the last few months. When I take it, I get very noticeable shrinkage. I am a 30 year old man, but only saw add adhd under the childhood categories. Is this a permanent/long term side effect, or does it change once the medicine is out of your system, my mind might be playing tricks on me at this point, and it's difficult for me to tell.
Avatar m tn I am really sensitive to medications. Adderall was like what I imagine taking crystal methamphetamine feels like. At least I felt like how those people looked. I have been on Vyvanse for a while now. And was worried when they doctor said it was very similar to Adderall XR. But he promised me that the issues I was having with feeling ill, insomnia, and no appitite would lessen on Vyvanse. And that the nasty, gross stimulant feeling I got from Adderall would go away.
Avatar n tn I do appreciate any input, but I feel that if I am charged to speak with a physician, they should take the time to look at my questions and try to answer them if at all possible. I was curious about the effects of taking adderall had on motor neuron and glutamate function. I am currently in medical school and have been taking adderall for some time now and notice that when I am taking in caffeine along with adderall I experience muscle twitching within my arms, legs, and fingers.
959034 tn?1253671476 It made me fell terrible. Also Ithink the plain adderall works better than Adderall XR. I have better control over the regular Adderall than theXR. If I don't feel like I need my afternoon dose, I dpon't take it. I was on 30mg XRs and they kept me up all night and ther is nothing you can do about it unless you have a sedative of some sort like Xanax or Ambien. Dexidrene works ok ,but it has a sharp crash to it and the Adderall just kind of wears off.
Avatar n tn I talked with his therapist and pediatrician and any other medicine including Adderall XR has been denied by the insurance since the medicines are not technically approved for ages under 6. I feel like my son is being tortured. He is good then not good, in trouble then not in trouble. As exhausting as it is for us as parents to deal with Jackal and Hyde. I can only imagine how he feels. What do I do now. We have been doing behavior modification therapy faithfully.
Avatar n tn They have never touched any drugs but do not want me around them without my medicine. By medicine, i mean weed and adderall. It was my lifesaver.
514443 tn?1224592574 I started taking 10mg of Adderall back in July. Around September I started taking an additional 5mg at noon time. It was working great for me untill about two weeks ago. All of a sudden I feel like the 10mg in the morning are doing nothing for me. I am sitting here at work, my leg bouncing uncontrollably, my mind racing and as of yet I have done no work and I have been here two hours.
Avatar m tn 00pm. 70mgs of Adderall total a day.
Avatar n tn Recently my doctor has prescribed me adderall, 20 mgs 3 times a day. Supposedly I have had ADD since I was little, just no one decided to put me on medicine until now. My doctor(whom I find is a little arrogant and rude) told me to take "drug breaks" which means he doesnt want me taking the medicine on fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays. I find this kind of weird. But I did what he said. This weekend I went without adderall for 3 days.
Avatar f tn I also used shroom on the medicine but listening to your advice all I have is left over medicine and shrooms along with alchohol I wanted to get off the antipsychotic due to weight gain, fatigue, slow thinking laziness etc along with brain damage possibly but what do you suggest also what should I do with the left over weed products and other stuff.
11323603 tn?1417233792 once I took adderall at 10 pm by accident when I wanted to take melatonin since my adderall causes insomnia... If I do it again, should I try to puke it back out or what should I do? Stay awake all night long?
Avatar m tn SWIY uses approx. 20-100mg of Adderall XR somewhere between 2-5 days per week (Usually chewed orally, sometimes just swallowed, sometimes crushed and snorted). Dosage varies and it is usually spread out through the day. Currently SWIY takes tums, 1 or 2 extra strength a few minutes before taking the Adderall. Daily Supplements include 250mg of Magnesium Oxide, a multivitamin, fish oil and occasionally 5HTP and Gingko Biloboa.
Avatar m tn For the last year or so, I have noticed that while I am on my adderall, 30mg tab po bid, I often can detect a strong amonia like odor if I sweat. If I take a hot shower while washing my hair I can sometimes smell it. I have also noticed that I have been having difficulty with bowel movements. In the past two weeks I have only had a very small movement every 4 days. I also have itching and burning on the outside area of my rectum.
