First off NOBODY should take any kind of prescription medication whether for A.D.D. or other conditions without first consulting a doctor and being prescribed to the medication.
A.D.D. is treated with the use of amphetamines or similar "uppers". If you don't have A.D.D. or A.D.H.D. the effects will be similar to the those experienced by patients prescribed to the medications but much more intense. The effects, intensity, and time the drug takes to kick in can vary greatly depending on the actual medication taken and whether it is instant release, which take effect quickly, or extended release, which will break down more slowly. For example extended release Adderall (a common A.D.D. and A.D.H.D. medication) contains two different kinds of balls in each capsule. The first dissolves immediately upon consumption, taking effect almost immediately. The second type can take up to 4 hours to dissolve releasing a delayed second wave of medication. When taking A.D.D. medication you will feel "up" or more energetic and most likely be in a better mood. You may also notice slight variations in your vision and a slight body buzz. In most cases it will also increase your ability to stay focused and your productivity/work ethic. Side effects include dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, restlessness, loss of appetite, and an uncomfortable feeling similar to getting goose bumps. Amphetamines also makes it extremely difficult to fall asleep and/or stay asleep. For this reason theses medications should be taken as early in the day as possible to avoid a late night. Unless of course having trouble staying awake and aware is one of your reasons for using an A.D.D. medication.
I have heard that some A.D.D. medications are also used for weight loss but I am not sure if this is a common or healthy method for weight loss. I hope i was able to help answer some of your questions about A.D.D. medications and their effects.
