Not long enough
yes it will
If it's an IR, snort it. Otherwise, eat it.
No it is not safe.
Adderall XR lasts longer. The XR stands for extended release and lasts around 8-12 depending on the consumer, mg, & tolerance. Generic Adderall which is actually Adderall IR (Instant Release) only lasts for a few hours (about 4 depending on the mgs) because Adderall XR is made from 2 different "beads" which one type releases automatically n the other type releases in about 4 hours so in the end Adderall xr lasts about 8 - 12 hours. When you pay for the Adderall XR you are paying for the extended release feature. SO Adderall XR lasts longer than Adderall IR.
You can't pass the test. There is no easy way to cheat it.
No. The XR stands for extended release. Extended release medications work because it takes the acid in your stomach longer to digest part of the medicine in the capsule. It isn't possible to create a tablet that does the same thing.
Everytime i take adderall xr or ir it makes me urine orange or bright yellow....and it's not like that otherwise so yes i would say so...:)
Two 20 mg ir tabs, 1 or 1 1/2 first time
Adderall XR comes in multiple dosage forms, and usually these are easily transcribed to IR or visa versa. However, 20 mg. of IR 3x daily does not have an equivalent XR dosage for the triple daily dose. The manufacturer offers Adderall XR 30 mg. capsules, which would mean you would take the full 60 mg dose (2 capsules) all in the morning. It would end up being equivalent to taking two 30mg dosages of IR, rather than 3x 20 mgs daily. If you feel that the 3x 20 mg. daily dosing of IR is too important, you might want to just stay on that version. You can always talk to your doc and see whats available.
I've tried Vyvanse (the "new" Adderall XR) and it had the same effect. What seems to work best for me (and my doctor knows of my previous substance abuse problem) is 3 20mg pills of Adderall IR distributed throughout the day. Totaling the max adult dosage of 60mg for IR. If I remember correctly, that is equal to the max dose of 30mg of XR. Yet, this way you can distribute your meds throughout the day, and even take half a dose when its evening time. Yet, doctors usually are aware that Adderall IR is easier to abuse.
