Avatar n tn Emergency medical treatment should be summoned at the first possible indication of a Ritalin overdose, as a sense of urgency could mean the difference between life and death, in this type of an emergency situation. The treatment protocol for a Ritalin overdose can vary depending on a various factors such as how much of the drug has been taken or if the medication has been combined with alcohol or any other types of drugs.
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...
673186 tn?1225983925 t know all that much about adderall. I did buy it and take it a few times so I know how it makes you feel,but thats about it.If I were to give you an answer here I would have to say that if it's prescribed to her taking any more then the prescribed dose continually is a lot,and if it's not prescribed taking any at all is too much.
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 m tn I was just diagnosed with ADHD today and my doctor prescribed me Adderall. I took 20 mg about 5 hours ago and I feel absolutely NOTHING. Is it because I donated Red Blood Cells yesterday??? I am worried as to why I feel ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, I feel disappointed in this medication and it has been only 1 day. I really need this medication to work for my ADHD. Thank you for your time!
Avatar n tn what is the effect on depression when combining alcohol with prozac and adderall
Avatar f tn I've been clean from opiads for almost 3 years thanks to my wonderful doctor who has me on Suboxone. I'm so angry at myself though bc I stupidly tried Adderall a few times which turned into more regular use. My doctor is aware. I just really need someone's help with suggestions on stopping the Adderall and what I can purchase otc to ease the side effects like weakness, overly tired, etc. I just want to be normal again and not have to take any meds.
Avatar n tn I just wondered how severe my case was. I was prescribed adderall 3 yrs ago. started at 10mg twice a day, i did that for about 6 month, then went up to 15 in the morning 10 after lunch....long story short i really liked the high and started taking it 3 times a week and now i take it daily, and on any given day ill take up to as much as 150mg to just 70 or 80. i believe my body is on the verge of a continuous overdose but at the same time i have some withdraw symptoms.
Avatar m tn Hello. I'm Seventeen years old and have ADD. Last year I stopped taking my 30mg XR adderall because of weight-loss problems. Now i am a generally healthy boy and the only condition I have is asthma, which I out-grew years ago. Last night around eight o'clock I took one of my old 30mg XR capsules to see if it would help me with a big homework assignment.
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 n tn Not only am I a paramedic, I am also a frequent adderall user. This is all common symptoms of a CNS (Central nervous system) overdose. Basically you have just overdosed on Adderall. Don't freak out, or I should say try your best not to. Keep in mind this medicine acts on the "fight or flight" response of the body. The "pounding" heart, elevated HR and tingling can all be explained.
Avatar n tn I take Adderall and have daily for about five months and occasionally get an uncomfortable tingling/numbness on my arms and face but today it wasn't just uncomfortable, I thought I was going to die. While driving I began to feel a tingling sensation in my face, arms and legs. The sensation slowly intencified and soon my whole body was tingling unbelievably (worst in my chest and abbs). I steped out of my car and could barly walk and had little control over my muscles.
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.
Avatar f tn 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). Been doing ok on it despite constant dry mouth and some weight loss. Well I just talked to him again and told him I liked it but felt it hard to focus again. He then suggested starting 20 mg three times a day! Am I crazy or is that way to much?

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?

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 m tn A couple days ago, I made the stupid decision to take a few extra ADD meds to help me study. After 7-10 10 milligram Adderall tablets(taken two or three at a time with at least 4-6 hour interval in between) and day and a half of studying without sleep, I started feeling quite weird; my heart began beating very fast(~130 BPM), and my extremities began to tingle. My dad drove me to the hospital where, after lying on a hospital bed for a couple hours, they told me that I would be fine.
1325193 tn?1450127436 i have a bad history of abusing drugs, and made a mistake of taking adderall. i have had physcs tell me i was adhd. instead of getting tested i went to a friend who gave me 10 15mg ir adderall. i personally dont think i am adhd. But from the first pill, i fell in love. it made me feel incredible. i abused 45 mg a day. Four days ago was my last dose and ever since then i have felt depressed very anxious, and have had crazy dreams.
Avatar n tn This Tongue problem is the side effect of using Adderall medicine. Adderall should be used as prescribed and should avoid overdose, this tongue problem is a minor side effect and if your problem isn't resolved thn you should need to contact your health specialist. Maybe there is a issue with your dosage.
Avatar f tn The dose is once a day, the stuff is not like adderall. Why would you take take 3 times that amount. I guess it could take another day or so for it to clear out of your system. If you can't stop puking, you are gonna need to see the emergency ward as that amount would be an overdose. Its really important to start sipping some kind of sports drink to get electrolytes in your system.
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.
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 m tn Everything I have read says that you have it for life. However, as you get older you (hopefully) learn how to compensate. And the older you get, the more control you usually have. However, if you haven't learned how to compensate or deal with the ADHD, thats when depression, anxiety, or self medication can set in. Having said that - the big IF is - was it an accurate diagnosis of ADHD. There are things that can make it seem like you have ADHD.
