The first dose of immediate release Adderall peaks in about 4 hours and then, if a second dose is not taken, begins its decline. If a second dose is taken at around the 4 hour mark, it actually reaches a peak higher than the first dose in about 1 to 2 hours after it is taken. If a third dose is not taken, then the second dose begins its decline from its peak in about 8 hours after taking the first dose. Adderall, however, can be very variable both from day to day for the same person and from one individual to another. Therefore, these times are only approximations and depend on a number of variables.

Adderall IR once consumed orally will kick in within 30 minutes to an hour and will last around 4 hours, while the XR version lasting around 8-10 hours. Snorting the adderall will highten the euphoria felt, but will cut those times in half.

my doctor first prescribed me concerta, a drug people with add/adhd start out with. then i was moved to adderall.

i started out with the 20s, 25s, 30s, now i am taking two 20's in the morning.

if you are trying to get high, 10 mg probably wont do it. 20mg may do it.

because I've gotten used to the medicine, i usually feel "up" from about 30-40 mins after i take the pills around 7 in the mornin, past lunch, and it starts to wear off around 2. however, the comedown sucks and if I'm not having a good day that will last until i fall asleep.

Adderall is designed so that the therapeutic effects of the drug last for 4 to 8 hours, depending on which is prescribed. (The 8-hour is an extended-release version called Adderall XR.)

It depends on how sensitive you are to the drug.

Typically 10 mg would last for a few hours at most, unless you rarely or never take it..

Is taking cough syrup with 5mg or 10mg of hydrocodone is this like taking a 5mg or 10mg tablet?

In a literal sense, no. One is solid while the other is liquid - and liquid gets absorbed into your body faster. However, 5mg is 5mg so I would imagine the dosage would be the same.


Is it safe to take 8 Adderall?

It would obviously depend of the dosage. Taking 6 5mg Adderall would be the same as taking 1 30mg Adderall. So, to just say "8 Adderall" can be anywhere from 40mg to 240mg. It also depends on tolerance. If you have little or no amphetamine tolerance, I would not exceed 20-30mg in 1 dose. If your amphetamine tolerance is through the roof, you could probably handle a very large amount. This is not "safe" though, being that large doses of amphetamines can cause long term cardiovascular and psychological damage.
