Is adderall xr as strong as adderall?
No way....adderall is broke down immediately in the system where as the extended-release (xr) releases small amounts over a six hour period or so. I have taken both and adderall is alot more effective than xr! For the record, Adderall xr IS Adderall, lol. It has an integrated time release formula, combined with the capsule which supplements the time release. Instant release Adderall tablets have a faster onset, but their half life is significantly reduced from that of the XR. So in other words, technically yes, XRs are less potent according to dosage, but the effects are much shorter. In my personal opinion, 3 extended release Adderall has the equivalent affect of 2 instant releases, give or take a few mgs. If you take one 20mg XR, the kick will be that of a 10mg instant release.
Can you open an Adderall XR capsule to take it?
Here's what the Adderall website has to say:Do not crush, chew, break, or open the capsule. Swallow it whole because it is designed to release the amphetamine and dextroamphetamine slowly. Breaking or opening the pill would cause the stimulant to be released too quickly. Drink a full glass of water with the Adderall.If is is hard for your child to swallow Adderall XR whole, the capsule may be opened and the contents sprinkled into soft food such as applesauce or yogurt and taken immediately.Do not drink fruit juices or take vitamin C with any form of amphetamine or dextroamphetamine. These can may reduce the absorption of the stimulant.
Does Adderall come in tablet form or capsule?
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.
How long does 30mg Adderall stay in your system?
I am assuming you mean Adderall instant release in contrast to Adderall XR, which would be different. Adderall is excreted depending upon the PH of the urine, thus it depends upon what types of drinks one has consumed. But, in general, this dose would be gone within 30 hours.
Does adderall work faster then adderall xr?
Yes because Adderall XR stands for Adderall Extended Release. XR lasts longer though because the tiny beads in the XR capsules have sort of like a plastic cover over them which makes them longer to dissolve in your stomach...Its almost like a capsules in a capsule. Hope this answered your question. -Shrimpo
Mixing adderall tablets and extended release capsules?
Well depending on the mg of the aderall tablet, Youll most likely be feelin reeeally good. I get the 30 mg adderall tab and have mixed with a 30 mg XR capsule. Prettyyy awesome.
What lasts longer Generic Adderall or Adderall XR?
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.
What are the different types of Adderall?
The four-hour forms are called Adderall and come in 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, and 30 mg strengths. The eight-hour capsules come as Adderall XR and come in 5, 10, 15, 20, 15, and 30 mg strengths. The tablets are now available in generic form. Visit Here- blinkshealth com
When Adderall xr and Adderall instant release are prescribed together what is a safe dosage?
If you were prescribed both than your doctor should've given you a certain dosage and told you when to take it. Dosages will vary depending on the patient's profile and the severity of the condition for which the drug is being prescribed.
How much is generic 20mg adderall without insurance?
I just had a prescription filled for 30 20mg Adderall XR capsules. Without insurance it would have been around $215! Since my insurance sucks I still paid around $175. Gonna talk to my doctor about switching to Dexedrine which is comparable to Adderall and costs around $40-50 depending on the dose. Just an FYI, you can get a generic version of Adderall (sold as mixed amphetamine salts), but only in the instant release version. Adderall XR (extended release) is patented through 2018 so there will not be a generic version of Adderall XR for several years.
Is inmecin-R a sustained release capsule?
Yes,Inmecin R is a sustained release capsule
What will happen if you take an opened time release Adderall capsule?
Nothing different than taking it with the capsule. It is just there to hold the beads in. The actual amphetamine is inside the little beads. There are 2 different kinds of beads. One dissolves within half an hour and the other dissolves 4 hours later. This is what makes it time release. That is why they say do not crush on the bottle. If you crush them, you eliminate the time release.
