adderall

Avatar f tn I say this because Basically phentermine is a stimulant (works like adderall), but works differently then adderall. I am not sure you should be taking it with adderall. "Phentermine use is containdicated in those who are: Taking amphetamine (i.e. Adderall, Dexedrine, Vyvanse), in the last 14 days" This quote is from - http://en.wikipedia.
5717054 tn?1372958545 iv been on Valium forever it stops my paranoia some of my anxiety and insomnia and vertigo too much benzo has paradoxical effect. I just started Adderall 20mds XR First day was bad i figured cause my anxiety.
Avatar f tn Hi there, Yes, Adderall can cause withdrawals when it's used recreationally, abused, and sometimes unintentionally. Something that you really need to be aware of is that toxic symptoms and signs of overdose can happen even with low dosage milligrams. Popping Adderall every couple of hours will only exacerbate side effects because they are usually intended as extended release capsules/caplets, to be used only once daily. The amount you have taken in the last few days is seriously dangerous.
Avatar f tn 5mg once a day and topamax 23 mg in half doeses twice dailey. I also take adderall 20mg twice Dailey. I asked him if theses two meds who interact with one another and his response was no . I guess my question is how do I safely spread them out during the day. It seems I can't get it right because when I take either or I get very anxious . I already take a anti anxiety med clonazepam for accational panic attacks. How do I safely take these?
Avatar n tn Hey guys, I'm a 21 year old male and I have an oral issue where the cause is unknown. Apparently I have a habit of pushing my tongue to the roof of my mouth and feeling around as if there was bits of food stuck on the roof of my mouth. It almost seems like a nervous reaction like popping joints or biting nails. It wouldn't usually bother me, but I've been tasting blood lately, as if I'm actually cutting the roof of my mouth. Does anyone have anything to help me?
5957912 tn?1379936972 t have to taper off adderall. Pentermine side effects say to not drink coffee, Adderall does not. You may have felt like crap because you stopped the pentermine. You need to talk to your doc. The problem quite possible could be the interactions of what you are taking. You really sound like you were over dosing and I think that could have been the drug combo.
Avatar f tn (Junior year is the first year I started taking/ sometimes double dosing adderall XR) I would take about 20-40 MG a day for school. (Adderall intensifies my symptoms by a big Margin) All the sudden I start experiencing things in class and around me that I'm sure all of you know. Sniffing, looks, coughing, sneezing, etc... My tongue was coated white and my breath was very hot. When I sit in cars even now sometimes all the windows will just fog up uncecessarily. I got terrible brain fog.
1569985 tn?1328247482 I have done that when mine was high and then gone back to regular dosing. I hope you find the problem quickly. Let us know what you find out if you feel it would be of help to others on this drug. BTW, I am doing better on 1/2 of a 25 mg. Atenolol at night and nothing thru the day. My heart rate is up a little and I am not used to that, so I'm feeling a little hyper. I am hoping it will level out and I will feel more energetic. My dizzy spells are also less.
Avatar m tn I started to try different doses of Vyvanse and Adderall, starting at 10mg Vyvanse and going up to 50mg, and starting at 5mg Adderall (IR) and increasing to 10, at most, 4x a day. All of these medications seemed to increase my depressive symptoms, and since I wasn't really retaining much or cognizant of how I was doing, I ended up going three weeks without touching my homework, going to class or talking to my friends.
Avatar f tn I got sent to a special school all thru high shool they had me on 30mg adderall 100 mg zoloft every morning total 4 years huge interaction Now it is like 9 years later & I've started taking meds again adderall in the morning 4 my adhd & xanax 4 my anxiety & agoraphobia the drs started me on xanax like 3 years ago & I was on a low dosage until a few months ago when my drs changed I went from having anxiety free full nights sleep with 1mg of xanex but then the dr upped it to 2
3063045 tn?1340654053 Wow, Jenny, you need to give your doctor a call and tell him what is going on and double check the dosing instructions. Vyvanse typically has a duration of 8 to 12 hours! And usually you take one pill a day. It may be that you are over dosing yourself (tiredness is a symptom of that). Call your doctor immediately.
Avatar m tn Just started with adderall and my left side arm and hand are tingling anything to be worried about?
1241508 tn?1313006082 ) without that information they might not know how to answer your question. Either way, I do hope that someone can provide you with a helpful answer. I think that you might have to elaborate though on what and where you are using it for. In addition to anything I have mentioned, please keep in mind, that while I or others may have extensive knowledge in many areas, you should always seek professional medical advice from your own physician, as it pertains to medical conditions or concerns.
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 n tn I wasn't sure where to ask this question so if it's in the wrong forum I apologize, but I have a question reguarding adderall. I don't have add or adhd, and i understand the problems doctors have had with adderall abuse. Despite this fact, I have used another person's perscribed adderall a few times. What im wondering is if adderall is only used to treat adhd and narcolepsy. I have always had low self confidence, so low that I would barely talk to anyone.
Avatar f tn Recently diagnosed with adult adhd. I was put on 20mg vyvanse about 3 months ago. Since then I have titrated up to 60mg in the am and a 10mg 100% d-amp "booster" around 2pm.. After about two weeks on this I felt over stimulated so I told my Dr. and he changed me up. Reduced me back to 40mg Vyvanse in the am and because I said the 100% d-amp (realizing that is in effect what Vyvanse is after it cleaves) was making me too jittery switched me to a new drug - Evekeo.

Avatar f tn My first time taking Adderall 5mg. I didn’t feel differently, didn’t have jitters, no increased heart rate and no sweating. But what I did have was improved eyesight, which is weird. I do wear glasses that I wear for a stigmatism but I do not wear them all the time. When I don’t wear them mailboxes and road signs are blurred. But after I Took the Adderall I could see and read the signs from farther away with out my glasses. I have been trying to make sense of this.
Avatar m tn This only happened once since it was a Friday and I do not do Adderall over the weekend. Everything went back to normal, until Monday I finished the Adderall I had and it happened again, I know the obvious answer is stop taking the Adderall, but can Adderall even have this side effect and cause this to happen? I do not have health insurance and going to a Doctor is more of a life or death situation so any information will be helpful!
Avatar f tn In answering insurance applications, is taking adderall considered a mental disorder?
Avatar n tn Someone close to me is extremely addicted to adderall. He has been getting prescriptions regularly, and has been consistently abusing it for several years, often times going through a months supply in a matter of weeks or less. He initially got onto the drug because he said that he suffered from ADD, although I believe in the past he had played with uppers. His addiction is not only life threatening, but it seems scary as well. He has exhibited psychosis, blatant paranoia, and extreme hostility.
Avatar n tn We could stop the Sunosi and have you do the Adderall three times a day. 90mg is typically the max we try to keep the dosing around for Adderall, but accomodations can be made. I'm suspicious if some of the symptoms you are experiencing during the day is related to Cataplexy? This is typically associated with some form of muscle weakness. Not sure if you notice any of those symptoms at all? In the event this was cataplectic episodes, adding SNRI in the form of Venlafexine.
Avatar f tn There definately is a difference between Ritalin and Adderall. Adderall is stronger. For instance, if a person is on 30mg of Adderall and wants to switch to Ritalin,..you will need aprox. 50 to 60mg of Ritalin to be equivelant to the 30mg of Adderall. I am on 60mg of Adderall daily. I wanted to try Ritalin again just for the heck of it. I have shown proof from reliable sources, to my Doc that he needs to give me MORE than 60mg Ritalin for it to be effective as 60mg Adderrall.
Avatar f tn And, of course, you could simply do an instant release adderall in the afternoon. But, I would definitely first try uping the dosage (and maybe looking for a new doctor). Anyway, here is a link to Dr. Parker talking about the problem of "ADHD medication dosing, not enough". Its also worth taking the time to view his other videos on the subject. I have bought his book and its great. Maybe you should buy it and give it to your doc. The link is https://www.youtube.
