Avatar f tn Also the Dose of V should be 30mg compared to 10mgs of adderall XR to be somewhat equal.
Avatar f tn 1 support staff who is even challenged to keep himself safe from him. He recently had to go to the hospital for a severe bite in the hand. He is currently taking Focalin 5 Mg twice per day for the Hyperactivity and the doctor wants to try Zoloft starting at 12.5 MG this weekend. He has been unsuccessful due to tics, td, and sleep disturbance on med trials of all of the following other meds: Celexa, Prozac, Abilify, Risperdal, Strattera, Vyvanse, Methylin and Adderall.
Avatar f tn Adderall is a cakewalk compared to opiates. You will be just fine. Kids stay on adderall and still get into Harvard--in fact, kids are purposefully getting on adderall to improve their grades. Coming off something like adderall is in no way, shape or form as hard as painkillers so I know you can do it. Just drink lots of juice, have some tylenol just in case. You'll be fine, honey.
Avatar f tn I have even been given Methylin to try and help get me reved up. Does not help either! So, I do not know what else they could possibly have in their bag of tricks for folks like us...But, I hope it is something and soon ;0 Please let me know if you come up w/ something that helps and I shall do the same. I am Thankful for all the "Up" time I have and the bit of energy to go with it.
Avatar f tn Do yourself a favor and try all other options before turning to adderall. I was addicted to adderall. I just finished physical withdrawals and now I'm dealing with phychatric withdrawals. This drug is sold on the streets and you might find yourself needing more and more in order for it to work. Just be careful! I just don't want anyone to go through what I just experienced! I thinks it's crazy they give this stuff to kids.
Avatar m tn Hi guys, I know it's been some time since I last posted something. I was able to get the 120 mg of Adderall xr , and I was feeling better. I wanted to give Dexedrine a chance so as to take a break from Adderall, I was given Dexedrine spansules 90 mg. It is smoother compared to the Adderall, but it doesn't last long as the 120 of Adderall. Dexedrine did bring hope to me as in being another choice other than Adderall, but the 90 mg is not doing it.
1367899 tn?1278121440 My sister and I started a blog on Adderall to learn more about the medication along with alternative and complementary ADHD treatment options. Any feedback from users of Adderall or Adderall XR would be greatly appreciated. Topics to be added this week on http://Adderall.org How is Adderall XR different from Adderall? [Adderall vs. Adderall XR] What is Adderall? How to Make Adderall: [Adderall Background Information] What are the best Adderall and ADHD books?
Avatar f tn i do have mild add i found out dr changed me from adderall to ritalin...im also on xanax was on prozac dr changed it to wellbutrin sr..i have been reading where these meds can cause a seizure...
Avatar n tn How about you try food supplements that have shown to have equal efficacy to Ritalin,Multiple vitimin with B Complex and Vit C . also Fish oil and been tried by many parents,with success, go into your local whole food store,if you have one called "Sprouts "they are very good and will go online for you to find what you need in a Natural Remedy to help you.If the drugs you have been trying dont work its time to find something less invasive that will, Good Luck.
Avatar m tn Both do take a while to take effect (compared to a stimulant). If you google them, you will be able to see lots of anecdotal posts on how it worked for that poster or their children. Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn I recently had to switch my add meds from adderall xr to vyvanse and I am on day 2 and I feel like I havnt taken anything. I am extremely tired, have anxiety with everything going on around me at once, and I cant concentrate at all, I walked around my kitchen for 15 minutes not knowing why i wass but knew there was a reason then finally got my car keys that i was needing to get in the first place. Is this normal?
Avatar f tn About a month ago I began to get a bitter taste in my mouth and it's progressively gotten worse. It's to the point that almost everything tastes horrible..I can't stand it. I will literally shiver eating foods I used to enjoy because they taste so bad. Is this due to Adderall? I've been on it since Jan. 2020 with no issues, so I just don't get why this would start now. Does anyone else have this issue?? How did you cure it?
7297821 tn?1390603432 I used to take adderall about 6 years ago ( not prescribed, solely for energy..) I took it for about a year and when I stopped I had 0 energy and mood swings from ****... I can't say how it really was because I started taking pain pills on top of/after quitting the adderall... I have no experience with subs..
Avatar m tn Please do not think this is the adderall alone, I have just recently started taking the adderall again in the last 3 days and I have noticed before that I forget to breathe when I was not on the adderall. I do however think what happened to me in the car is because the adderall is making my sleep worse.
Avatar f tn without going to a doctor or talking to my parents. i did bring in an adult and shes trying to help as much as she can but doesnt know much about adderall abuse so ya.
Avatar f tn Personally I would get rid of the Adderall and try to a withdrawal from Xanax and maybe go with an SNRI. Maybe adding Wellbutrin with the SNRI or other antidepressants. See, you can try different combination and the odds are good that you will eventually find something that works. Anyway it's probably all issues you will discuss with your new doctor in June.
312330 tn?1245176752 I currently take Prednisone, Qvar, Foradil, Zantac and Adderall. I would prefer not to add another pill to the mix if I can help it, the less med interactions I chance the better....any suggestions? It's quite common for it to be after 3am before I can get to sleep...and with being in graduate school, I have to get up in the mornings for class.
Avatar f tn I am an eighth grade dropout, so dont listen to me, but I believe anyone who prescribes sphyc medicine to a child should be locked up,, Thats my take..
Avatar n tn Hi, just a few questions and wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience or any thoughts or ideas. I've been diagnosed add/depression/anxiety. I've been on ativan, adderall, celexa, lexapro, and recently zoloft. I used the ativan for a short period of time for anxiety, but didn't want to make it long term for the risks involved although it helped my anxiety a lot and relieved some depression from that.
Avatar f tn Adderall 10 mg = Vyvanse 30 mg, Adderall 20 mg = Vyvanse 50 mg, Adderall 30 mg = Vyvanse 70 mg. I always start lower than expected with a change to Vyvanse, as for about 10-15% that anticipated dose of Vyvanse proves too much. I don’t want folks on my watch to experience 10% problems." I would also check the comments in the above link and some of them might apply to you. the link is - http://www.corepsych.
990354 tn?1307132886 t think she is taking them at the same time but, is it safe for her to take an adderall on occasion? She claims the adderall gives her more energy than the vyvanse so she takes it when she has a night that she is working late and so on. I am just making sure this is not harmful to her, I am a recoverying addict and am scared I am seeing the same signs in her.......
Avatar f tn I have been off vicodin for over 8 days and will still feel so tired and winded so I will try the adderall to help me get my energy back. My job requires me to move so I have to do what I have to do.
Avatar m tn I left school and after a year of working with a psychiatrist I found myself in a position to return to school. Meds were Effexor XR, Adderall XR, Wellbutrin, Lamictal, and Lorazepam. During my senior year in college, my father left our family and I experienced a lot of anger and frustration towards this. I thought my family was leaving me. He had an affair for two years and for those two years I tried desperately to hold a job, but could not because I felt so depressed and hopeless.
Avatar f tn Hi Bob, Adderall is an amphetamine, right? Do you have any weird side effects from it? And do you think you can become addicted to it? Our nurse coordinator and my neuro set me up with the one I'm on now, first, because they said all of the other ones are amphetamines. I haven't heard of this one before, so I'll have to look it up. That's really inexpensive compared to some of the prices I've seen out there for Provigil. Amphetamine make me a little afraid....
