Is adderall suposed to be taken all at once or throughout the day?

Your doctor can determine what is best for you based on your schedule - assuming you are seeing one. Adderall can be prescribed in a variety of ways. Adderall XR lasts for 8-12 hours, and gives two divided doses as its time released. It is given once daily. Sometimes, doctors will prescribe a small 10 mg IR dose, for a boost or for avoiding a crash. Adderall IR can be prescribed once daily, although it is only effective 4-6 hours. Doctors typically prescribe this 2x daily for that reason, with the occasional 3x dosing, depending on the persons metabolism and schedule.
