Possibly but it depends on why a person is taking it. Adderall will sometimes be prescribed to someone with chronic depression when most all other drug combinations and dosages seem to have failed or not brought about as well a result as hoped. The Adderall can help boost seratonin levels but a patient needs to be closely monitored since amphetamines are highly addictive. For those taking the medication due to ADHD, it would again depend on how severely affected the patient has been throughout there lives by the ADHD. Although it is true that many as they age become better able to control or hide the symptoms of ADHD and most patients do improve to an extent with age more doctors are aware that the problems of untreated ADHD do not end at the completion of adolescence but can and most often do affect people long into there adult lives.
