Avatar f tn what would the side effects be if a person took 40, 30mg adderall xr. how long do the side effects last?
Avatar m tn If you don't mind. What symptoms did your brother have? And did he have ADHD?
Avatar m tn this was due to a cocaine overdose which in reality is the same as speed/adderall etc...races the heart and can do permanent damage...he has "locked in syndrome"...he is awake and alert but can not move a muscle in his body...the family is uneducated and will not make him a dnr(do not resusitate)...he has been coded over and over,,,poor thing...
Avatar m tn It all started about Wed (02/08/17) morning when I woke up, as soon as I sat up I had a strong urge to gag and did but didn't vomit. It was an unpleasant feeling of course that lasted through the evening with me having no appetite. What I find odd is that it pretty much completely disappears by around 8PM every time! Now about a week later I'm still experiencing this which is why I came here seeking help.
Avatar f tn I have never taken a pill like this before. Realizing I could possibly overdose and maybe die or even to get high... I took 3, 60mg Vyvanse capsules. I popped them at about 10:20 PM.. later in the night, I started to have a faster heart beat, having a hard time breathing, I was dizzy, my pupils were very big, I was panicking all night, my depression and anxiety only seemed to get worse, my forearms and legs started to hurt.
Avatar m tn t slept, there is a tightness around my heart/chest, and I feel like my body really wants to move. Almost like my skin is crawling and shaking. What should I do? Did I maybe overdose? Should I be worried? Please tell me how to make this feeling go away.
Avatar f tn I've been on brand name Adderall XR 15mg pills for a few months now, and I've never had any problems with side effects other than suppressed appetite. Thanks to our new insurance only covering the generic, I had to switch to a drug "identical" to the brand. When I initially told my mom I was worried about the switch, she told me they're the exact same thing. She's a pharmacist, so I took her word for it. Fast forward to today, when I started the generic.

1054372 tn?1254848313 Has a wife in a comma from a overdose, and a 3 year old son... We just discovered he is back to using. What do I do to help him i have tried meetings, counceling, reality and he still goes back to it.....Please someone what do I do? This is been going on for years always been their for him but can't take it anymore....How can I get him back on the right track?
Avatar n tn The tingling is simply poor peripheral perfusion (poor circulation to hands and feet). Think of an adderall overdose like this, if you were about to enter a fight, how would your body react? Sweaty palms, elevated BP and pulse, diaphoretic, etc. When I encountered the adderall OD, I usually grab a beer, as it helps me calm down. An hour or two and you should be fine. Hope this helps.
673186 tn?1225983925 So, taking more than 2 times a day am and noon is too much. You are not to take this druh in the pm but abusers do. The hours in your system are not enough to eliminatewe the drug before bedtime if taken in the PM. To Krissy 28-your friend is in big trouble-its prob.
Avatar n tn I am 22 and I have a 6 year old son who is so out of control and he just cannot listen if his life depended on it it’s like he is always out in left field some where if you tell him to do something he will not do it never ever and sometimes he will just repeat everything you say I don’t know what to do I really don’t iv tried sending him to counseling we have tried some exercise I have done just about everything I’m waiting on an appointment to put him on meds and I hope it helps.
1744544 tn?1311299862 Is there a way to get a 2nd doctor's opinion? Is this your gp that was prescribing the meds or a pdoc? If this was your pdoc perhapse your gp can help while you shop for another pdoc? It doesn't sound like this doc takes your concerns seriously if they aren't answering your questions and concerns about your meds. For what it's worth, I have a son on Intuniv myself. I agree that, at least in pediatric patients, the reactions to it and adderall are vastly different.
Avatar n tn The symptoms could be due to the drug itself or due to overdose of the drug. However there are other possibilities too. Talk to your doctor ASAP. This also looks like an episode of transient ischemic attack wherein the blood supply to brain is temporarily cut off. The episodes last for a maximum of 24 hours and then resolve or a new symptom starts. Please consult a neurologist. You will need to undergo a MRI of the brain. The second possibility is seizures.
Avatar n tn I'm sorry I'm late finding this post and I hope by now you've either started feeling better, or have sought medical attention. More than likely what you're experiencing (experienced) was a case of low blood sugar. As I'm sure you know, the Glyburide-Metformin helps to lower the blood sugar of someone who has diabetes. If you take it and don't have diabetes, it can cause an unsafe drop in your blood sugar.
Avatar f tn Hi I posted on here before and got great answers so I'm back again. I've had ADHD since 14 but only took meds for a few year before I decided to try things on my own. Now at 26 I'm working full time, going school and being a single parent. Needing help to focus and with depression I went to see a pyschologist( I have medi-cal so theres only one available) He put me on 10mg Adderall three times a day ( he said 4 but I made the decision to only do three).

6601982 tn?1383751336 You obviously have a purpose on this earth and many more things to do as well as living to do. Please stick around. This is a great place to get advice and support. Stick with your taper plan and take good care of yourself. Chin up!
Avatar f tn My son just turned 5- and this year had been a very eventful year for him. He was diagnosed with AD/HD, ODD, and OCD. He is becoming very hard to deal with, he cries over anything and everything. When he doesn't get his way he cries and throws a fit. I can't take him out in public because im affraid he will throw a fit on me and start screaming and crying. He doesn't listen to anything his Father and I tell him. He is the the total opposite at school, he listens and is polite.
Avatar m tn I was under the impression suboxone wipes all the opiates out of your system, and unless you wait long enough after your last suboxone (24-72 hours) dose you will not be able to feel anything from opiates. If that is true then do the opiates that you tried to relapse with even stick to receptors in your body or do they just get flushed out as if you hadn't taken a thing and you ended up just "wasting" pain pills?
Avatar n tn At night i needed a quick fix to go to bed and relax my nerves and body and thats what weed did, but when my adderall dose got higher so did my THC tolerence. i need to fix my body and head. I need advice on the most safe way to quit this drug without a form of rehab facility. That for of treatment is just not an option for me.
Avatar n tn Concur...until he is ready to do something about it u cant do anything but be there for him.....adderall is not a physical withdrawal as much as narcotics...it is a very mental withdrawal like cocaine...it affects the pleasure center/the dopamine receptors...so withdrawls would have a lot of depression and fatigue....a friend of mine had to quit as the doctor quit prescribing it for him...
Avatar n tn He may need immediate medical attention if the symptoms have not resolved. Overdose of Adderall with is an amphetamine can be toxic or deadly. Please make sure that this is addressed. My best wishes to both of you.
