Common Questions and Answers about Adderall xr dosage maximum

adderall

Avatar m tn No easy answer here. First I assume you mean Adderall XR? Let me know if you don't because the next sentence is about XR. Most Charts list 50mgs as the maximum dose. And weight really has less to do with the dosage then one would think. Dr. Charles Parker, author of "New ADHD Medication Rules", says, "I always steer completely away from an answer to the question of ‘just what is your top dose?

Avatar m tn I stopped taking my perscription to adderall xr 30mg two weeks ago since my semester at college was over. I was taking this dosage for almost three months. Since I have stopped, I have noticed fatigue in the morning along with a foggy thought process through out the day. Is this normal? And how long does this withdrawl last for?
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.

Avatar n tn ve had weekly checkups to monitor my dosage and my doctor and I have slowly worked up to 30 mg of adderall a day (20mg XR AM and 10 IR PM). Since that first week I've been feeling TIRED when taking my adderall and don't think it's working very well anymore.
Avatar n tn I run 2 - 3x per week for 3 - 5 miles, weight training 2x per week, and boxing and wrestling for 90min 4x per week. I take Zantac for acid reflux and Adderall XR for concentration and memory retention. I eat very well, don't smoke, don't drink. I have been living my life this specific way for about 8 months and my heart rate when doing any strenuous exercise is at 200-205 BPM. Within 2 minutes of running until I am finished it beats that fast.

Avatar m tn Adderall XR helped my Cerbral Palsy. I took about 40 mg and my spastiicity feels cured. I think of what may of actually helped too is I took my pain medicine oxycodone too. I am so happy right now I could cry. I don't want to wake up and beb back to normal lol. I am going to call my doc.If you want more info from me my email is ***@****. There is never anyone with answers or helpfulness.
Avatar f tn IVE BEEN takeing 150mgs of adderall xr or 5 30mg tabs a day for over 2 years. i have a tolerance too. my meds are prescribed monthly and legally, i guess what im trying to say is the feeling always becomes normal no matter what the doseage. everything out there for adhd is always going to let u down over time. If it was me ID TRY to get off them before you build up to a level and dependancy like mine.
Avatar n tn What dose of short acting Adderall was she taking before? What dose of the Adderall XR is she taking now?
Avatar f tn I have a real sensitive stomach and immune system, and am allergic to a lot so I would think that you can handle most of these. The best working were the Daytrana, Adderall XR, and Vyvanse, and the Adderall you are taking may be different than what I take(XR) The other Adderall hurt my stomach and made me sick if I didn't eat, but I have no problem with the XR.
Avatar f tn I currently take Levothyroxine 88mcg(μg) in the morning and 2 doses of Adderall (instant release, not XR) 20mg - one in the morning before classes and the second one whenever I need it depending on my classes that day or things I need to work on. I also later added Celexa 20mg which helped a lot with the anxiety and mood swings - especially from the "crash" of the Adderall. But with ADD meds, no one can tell you what will work best for you, or what dosage, before you try it.
1182411 tn?1265321044 My name is David and I was browsing the net for suggestions about adderall tolerance, I am on 90 mg xr of Adderall , and it stopped working . No single psychiatrist as of now has been willing to increase it. It just kinda gives me hope to know that there are others who need more than the 'usual' dose, thanks for your time. I just needed to say this.
Avatar n tn I stopped drinking caffeine for a couple of months while taking the wellbutrin and I felt lousey I would hardly smile or cared to do anything, My psychologist said that it seems that I need stimulation so it should help to be on a higher dose of adderall XR, I am wondering if the celexa is to high of a doseage?
Avatar n tn I am 25 years old. I weigh about 175 lbs. I am prescribed Adderall XR - 30 mg. I take 2 a day as prescribed monday through friday. I do not take any on sat and sunday. I notice that after 3 months or so of use the adderall does not work as well. Should I take a break to reset my tolerance? If so how long?

Avatar f tn I took a break for about 6 months, and now, going back to school I have started back up on Adderall 20 mg XR capsule. I see more side effects with this med than I ever did with the IR- Headaches, "lump in throat" 5 hrs in, severe appitite suppresion, and nausea to the point that I have to lay down for up to 2 hours.
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 n tn I have these & I can't take it anymore...the rubbing of my tongue on the roof of my mouth & teeth due to the Adderall IR & XR...If I recall correctly, it all started when I switched from Adderall to the generic. Has anyone gotten any feedback to this problem?
Avatar n tn , but its going to be a month before they can get my son in to see him. I decided that I would experiment and cut my sons Adderall dosage in half. He appeared to do rather well and didnt have the ticks. Is this safe to do until I can get in to see the Dr or should I go ahead and continue giving him the full 10mg. ?
Avatar f tn Well 3 failed college attempts and 5 car accidents later, I decided to see a pshycologist for a few appointments and tests and he diagnosed me with ADHD and wanted to prescribe me a stimulant and chose adderall. I tried 10mg IR and 20mg IR, with great success and only mild side effects but they did not last very long maybe 5 hours max, and I have 13-16 hour work days.
1085866 tn?1256496382 My doctor put me on adderall XR Oral (but on the bottle it says amphetamine salts). I know that there is usually a feeling out process when it comes to ADHD and the various treatments. However, I have hypertension and in my research, I've noticed that this is not recommended for people with hypertension. I started taking it on Saturday and noticed that my blood pressure, (that I was being treated for with atenlol and lisinopril) shot up to about 160/100 on average.
Avatar m tn I am a 48 yr old female diagnosed with recurring severe depression. When I am not taking my meds, I am tired, can sleep all day, am completely unmotivated to do anything and do not want to socialize with anyone. I have tried several different meds and am currently taking Celexa and Adderall XR. My psy says that adding the Adderall will "kick in the Celexa" and make it work better. I have a love/hate realationship with the Adderall.
