Neither will be had without a doctors prescription, legally. So I think the Q is from someone who has it. I, too, have it. I'm prescribed both. 20mg IR in the morning + 2mg Ativan. They seem to kick in at the same time and last about as long. Later in the day I take a second 20mg IR, usually after lunch so I've got an appetite. Then when the world starts to feel a bit too nasty it's time for that second Ativan. The world didn't used to feel so nasty, but I've been taking Adderall for 6 years with the same dose, roughly, and the "come down" in the evenings without something to smooth it over really blows. Ativan is highly addictive in a sneaky way just like every other benzo though. So *start smaller than you think you need* ... break any dose your doctor prescribes you into 1/4's. Otherwise you'll build up a tolorance QUICK (unlike adderall) and find yourself needing it at all times on an increasing ramp, usually ending with an empty bottle and a frantic call to your doctor. They don't like that. So start verrrrry small. They are safe to be taken together, just be real familiar with both so you know when you can take less. I have my "spares" bottle that grows over time. I'm rather proud of it, it's proof I've been able to skip doses here and there when I simply felt like I could. My final piece of advice: Write the day/night/party/dinner get together etc off before taking the Ativan, if you can. There is no impact on your meds by telling your friends you're just not up for it. The opposite or worse-- diving into the spares bottle for a simple night out? That's a step in the wrong direction. And when taking adderall and ativan together, there aren't many steps, they're very steep, but the view sure is good from up here. :)

Good luck!

The two are opposites. Adderall is a stimulate and Ativan is a depressant, and so they--like all drugs-- should only be taken together under a doctor's supervision.

Yes, if prescribed. Adderall and Concerta are both central nervous system stimulants and when taken together increase the risk of adverse effects including cardiac events (heart attack, tachycardia) and high blood pressure. If your doctor has prescribed these two drugs, he or she has decided that the potential benefit is higher than the risk. Do not recreationally mix these two drugs.

If the Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) is legally prescribed and the jurisdiction allows medical marijuana and that too is prescribed then it should be safe.

Using both drugs does carry risk and should only be attempted under the directions of a doctor.

I have before. I don't feel like the adderall affected my marijuana high. Adderall is for ADHD, and marijuana can make you hype, so it kinda evens out.

I did! I took both and had not one side effect. I was on a rather high dose of Prozac at the time.

Hope that helps!
