Can you take aspirin while taking adderall?

(Note: Not all drug interactions are known or reported in the literature, and new drug interactions are continually being reported. This information is provided only for your education and for you to discuss with your personal healthcare provider. )

There is no documentation of interactions between aleve and Ritalin or aspirin and Ritalin. But there is a negative interaction if you take aspirin and aleve at the same time.

ASPIRIN may interact with NAPROXEN (in Aleve)

Naproxen is broken down by the liver and removed from the body in the urine. If this happens too quickly, then potentially less naproxen would be available for the body to use and blood levels could become too low. This could make naproxen less effective. Aspirin may cause naproxen to be broken down at a faster rate than normal. Based on information from a number of studies, this does not appear to have a significant impact on the therapeutic effect of naproxen. However, both of these drugs can cause stomach irritation and may potentially damage the lining of the stomach. The risk of experiencing these side effects may be increased when aspirin and naproxen are taken at the same time. You may want to ask your healthcare provider about this potential interaction if you think you are having problems.

This interaction is poorly documented and is considered minor in severity.

What are the effects of taking Adderall with sodium bicarbonate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While everyone metabolizes drugs differently, the average person only absorbs about half of the Adderall in an oral dose. How much actually gets in your blood depends on the pH level of your body, or how acidic or alkaline you are. The more acidic your body is, the less Adderall you'll absorb. Sodium Bicarbonate, which is better known as Baking Soda, is an alkalinizing agent. The instructions for use as an antacid are on the box, and taking it as recommended shortly before and/or with Adderall increases the effects and the duration of the Adderall.

Basically, Baking Soda makes Adderall stronger for longer.

That's assuming you can choke it down. Baking Soda is nasty.

Good Luck,

Is smoking cigarettes while taking adderall harmful?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Nicotine is an agonist (a drug that increases the action of a neurotransmitter). It does this by binding to post-synaptic receptors and activates and or increases their effects. In other words, you take some Adderall and it floods your synaptic clefts with various neurotransmitters (dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine) -- that's what provides you with the change in cognitive and bodily actions and perceptions -- if you are at the same time smoking a cigarette, the nicotine will "open up" and make the receptor sites for these neurotransmitters more effective, allowing more of the neurotransmitters to be transmitted. This offers the same effect as an increased dose of the drug. If an SSRI is added to the mix it will block the deactivation or reuptake of the Adderall-produced neurotransmitters, making the effects both longer lasting as well as more intense. Consult a physician for further information regarding the effects and interactions between the drugs. Answer No physician would ever answer this question "yes." It is never healthy or okay to smoke no matter which medications you are on. The health impact of tobacco use is huge--stop now before you cause damage to your body. If you are unable to quit on your own, see a physician for help. Answer I take Adderall XR. 30mg 3 times daily, I also smoke. It's not healthy but it doesn't affect the Adderall. If it does I would suggest you talk with the prescribing doctor. Answer I was a smoker for 5 years and was (and still am) on Adderall XR 20mg for one year. During the time I was smoking around a pack a week. During that time I found it was a lot easier to smoke. Their were two down sides to this. The first (and most obvious), I was smoking a lot more than normal. The second was that I was a lot more on edge and had a couple of panic attacks. Since I quit smoking I've noticed that I'm a lot less likely to "freak out" and (big suprise) my lungs feel a ton better. Past this I have been unable to find a any research on the side effects of Adderall XR beiing taken with different substances... Answer If you feel a need to smoke while on Adderall, you should ask yourself if you have developed a tolerance to the Adderall that makes it less effective than when you first began taking it. This may well be the cause for your need to smoke. I say this because nicotine has an effect on the brain very similar to that of Adderall. If you have developed a tolerance to Adderall, nicotine can overcome that tolerance by basically giving the Adderall a boost. Unfortunately, if you are using the nicotine to overcome a tolerance you developed to the Adderall, you probably will not be able to quit smoking without your symptoms returning. Therefore, you have four choices: (1) increase the dose of Adderall recognizing that, in time, you will also develop a tolerance to that increased dose; (2) change to another medication; (3) supplement the Adderall with another medication; or (4) remain at your present dose and keep smoking to boost its effectiveness. Answer Dextroamphetamine (the chemical in adderall) is a stimulant, therefore it heightens brain activity and thoughts. Adderall XR is a time release pill. Adderall XR 30mg is actually 15mg for 6 hours and another 15mg for 6 hours. (Approx. four hours to five hours of effect, an hour or two come down, and four to five hours of effect, an hour or two come down.) Since dextroamphetamine goes directly to your liver to be broken down, then through your bloodstream to be sent to your brain, it is in your bloodstream throughout the day (while in effect). Nicotine is also a stimulant, even though it feels like a depressant. It constricts your blood vessels which increase your blood pressure and your heart rate, which gives you a good rush from the Adderall since your body is use to the dose already taken. I've wondered the same thing, and I've researched for months now, and here's my summary in words everyone can understand. It is taking a risk if you have heart problems, or any other cardiovascular troubles. Even though I chain smoke five cigarettes at a time when I'm on amphetamines (I take vyvanse recreationally once a month. Judge me. I don't care.) I'm 16 and enjoying life. Don't be a fool. Research anything before you take it. Be smart.

">Be smart about what you take. Putting my 2cents in. Doctors don't tell you all about what could happen so

read all the instructions you have that comes with the prescription you are

taking. This is no laughing matter I am the kind of person that finds out the

hard way and that is were I went wrong is because now I am suffering from

constant pain that I have no clue what causes it and now in this day and age

its to expensive to go see your doctor just for a regular check up in this

economy. So take this seriously and read the instructions and warnings about what you are taking, and (take notice of what are the side effects) so either take the drugs or take the natural way to getting better it is up to you. I also care about the facts about drugs and medications because this is your life I am talking about everyone is always putting their lives on the line even when it comes to taking something as small as a pill that may seem harmless :) but in the end either you get (good results or bad results) I say if you have a concern about the bad then take this advice and (start taking notice) be smart its you who are in control of your own well being be smart and take this into some kind of consideration.

The myth of smoking during pregnancy being harmful

Wed, 30 Oct 2013 17:51 CDT

In about 1999 I was asked to analyze the data of pregnant women with respect to smoking for a major health insurance company. They were running a campaign to get pregnant women to stop smoking and they expected to find interesting data to support their case.

I used to teach college courses covering the topic. The text books said that smoking causes underweight premature babies. Because of this babies of smoking mothers are more likely to have birth defects. With alcohol, two drinks a day was considered safe, but with tobacco, there was no safe threshold. I thought this was rather strange. You smoke one cigarette while pregnant and you are more likely to have birth defects? Even for a hard core health fanatic that is difficult to believe.

Here is what was found in the data. Babies of smoking mothers average weight was 3232 grams (7.1 lbs.). Babies of non-smoking mothers averaged 3398 grams (7.5 lbs.). That is about a half pound difference and it is statistically significant. Seven pounds is a good healthy birth weight that does not set off any alarms. Babies are considered underweight if they are less than 2270 grams (5 lbs.). 4.5% of smoking mothers babies were underweight and 3.3% of non-smoking mothers babies were underweight. This difference is not significant. There is no indication here of a health risk from smoking based on weight.

The other risk factor is length of term. Normal gestation is 253 days. 4% of smoking mothers did not go to term and 7.8% of non-smoking mothers did not go to term. Smoking mothers did better than non-smoking mothers but the difference was not significant. There was obviously no risk from reduced term for smoking mothers.

Because the non-smoking mothers had heavier babies one would expect more C-Sections from the non-smoking mothers. There were about 20% more. This is significant at the .05 level but not the .01 level so you could argue the significance either way depending on your bias. The data here is limited because only 5% of pregnant women smoked but the trend for smoking mothers was toward less babies retained in the hospital, less C-Sections, insignificantly fewer pre-term deliveries and an insignificant increase in clinically underweight babies.

This data can be explained by assuming that when pregnant women are stressed, they self medicate to relieve the stress. Non-smoking women tend to eat more causing the baby to be larger and more difficult to deliver. This can also cause other problems. Smoking women tend to light up when under stress. This is less harmful to the baby than over-eating. For this reason smoking mothers tended to have better outcomes for baby and mother. They also cost less for the insurance company.

You might be interested in knowing that this information was not used. I was told that the medical insurance business is highly regulated by the government. The company was not allowed to tell the truth about these results even though it was better for the insurance company and for the patients.

I do not think these results suggest that women should start smoking when they get pregnant. I do think it indicates that it is very poor practice to try to get smoking mothers to stop smoking when they get pregnant.

About me

I have a Ph.D. in experimental psychology and have worked in both research and teaching. I am a health nut and do not endorse smoking or care to be around people smoking. I was shocked by these results. My bias if any is certainly against these results. However I think it is horrible to withhold information form people and intentionally give them bad advice to advance a political agenda.

do take this combo, avoid strenuous activity for the first 45 minutes and try not to take it on an empty stomach. I felt like I might die for 30 minutes but now am feeling better.

Will Xanax turn up in a drug screen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That depends on when you take the drug test. Xanax, and all benzodiazepanes, usually stay in the urine system for 3-5 days. #1, there's no such thing as a 10mg xanax. the highest amount you can get is a bar which is 2mg. 10mg is almost a lethal dose so yes of course it will show up in a drug test if your getting tested for benzodiazepanes....

Is Vyvanse more more similar to Ritalin or adderall?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vyvanse is a stimulant of the amphetamine class that is used to treat ADHD. It is closely related to Adderall. Vyvanse is a schedule II controlled substance.
Strattera is a pseudostimulant used for the treatment of ADHD, since it has a much lower potential for abuse than amphetamines. It is not a member of the amphetamine class. It is not a scheduled controlled substance.



Strattera is classified as a non-stimulant drug, it is in the group of SNRIs - serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, while Vyvanse is a stimulant belonging to amphetamines.

Strattera cannot make one feel 'high', so it really has a very low potential for abuse. But when used for treatment of ADHD, Strattera works slower than Vyvanse and other stimulants. To achieve the desired effects one may need several weeks.

On the other hand, it is said that effects of Strattera are more steady, and patients on Strattera can feel fine all day long, while Vyvanse only boosts their abilities for a short period after being taken.

Are Adderall and Methylphenidate the same?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Essentially speaking, "meth", adderall (and other ADD meds), and cocaine are all made up of the same stuff, called Amphetamines. The only difference is their mechanisms of action, which are not yet fully understood. The 'meth' in methamphetamines is an extra molecule which binds on to the amphetamines and makes them last longer in your body. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphetamines

Can burns cause nerve damage?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, burns can damage nervous tissue. Burns are categorized as 1st, 2nd or 3rd degree. 1st degree: epidermis only 2nd degree: epidermis & part of dermis (sometimes called a 'partial thickness burn') 3rd degree: epidermis & entire dermis (full thickness burn). Nerves & blood vessels are embedded throughout the dermal layer. The extent & severity of the burn will determine the type & scope of nerve damage. Hope this helps!

You have been prescribed adderall 10mg would it hurt you if you took 20mg?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer: Trust me, you'll live. Just don't accidently take 10x your recommended dose, that would be dangerous. You can skip your next dosage, if you want or just keep taking it when you're supposed too. It doesnt really matter, but I usually skip a day if I take more than I should. NOTE: You should just stick to your prescribed dosage. And because Adderall is a controlled substance, you can only get one prescription re-fill per month. So if I take more I skip a day mainly because I'll have one less dose that month anyways. Thats math for you. So basically there's no need to worry, even though I bet it felt weird since you took double your regular dosage. :) hope this helps.****

Does focalin show up on drug test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, as it's prescribed for ADD and is stimulating in nature, and looking at the pathways activated that are shared with more direct amphetamines such as dexedrine or adderall, it definitely has potential to appear on a drug screening. Obviously, the higher and more prolonged your dosing regimen is, the more likely it is to show a positive for amphetamines. It has a relatively short clearance time, however, so it's not something that would cause disaster if you took a pill on the odd occasion. (This does not condone recreational uses of dexmethylphenidate at all.) For more information check out the vaults at erowid.org. Happy pharming ^_^

Will meth show up as adderall in drug test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

YES, Adderall and other stimulants based on amphetamine will cause a UA or a swab to show up as "hot" for amphetamines.

Remember, standard drug tests do not test for the drug itself, they test for the metabolites of the drug, i.e. what your body turns the drug into. Since Adderall is a mixture of four different salts of amphetamine, your liver metabolizes these salts into the exact same chemicals that meth metabolizes to.

Hope this help you out.

How do you get a refill of Adderall?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Adderall is a "controlled substance." It's under Schedule II of the Controlled Substance Act, which means it has a high potential for abuse or dependence. Adderall and all drugs that fall under this category require a doctors visit where they must write you a rx each time you need a refill.

Does the coast guard ban adderall for commercial maritime workers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I have a answer regarding this if you can bear with the story;

Before I joined, I was being treated for AD/HD during school and was prescribed Adderall. I stopped taking it around near the end of high school. When I joined, I had to provide supporting documents from my doctor stating that I was no longer being treated for AD/HD. A few years down the road during my enlistment, I had seen a psychiatrist after seeing a psychologist and undergoing a series of tests. He prescribed me Adderall once again and informed me that the military is allowing exceptions to the AD/HD treatment rules. However, he was not aware that the USCG was the only branch of military service that does not allow stimulant medication for AD/HD treatment. It was brought to my attention by an O-6 physician's assistant that the USCG's medical doctrine states in very black and white instruction that if a member is required stimulant medication for AD/HD treatment, they are disqualified from joining or will undergo a medical board for discharge if they're already in service.

Luckily, it was swept under the rug by the psychiatrist, but now I can't bring up my AD/HD issues unless I want to face being discharged. This also means no more Adderall treatment.

Long story short; The USCG's very strict and cut and dry policy is if you require stimulant AD/HD medication(Adderall, Dexedrine or any amphetamine) to function normally, this will disqualify you from joining, or face you with a medical discharge if you're already a member.

It's extremely unfortunate :(

Can adderall stop working once you have been on it for a long period of time?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The answer is definitely "yes." Your brain actually develops a tolerance to Adderall by creating more receptors. Once you develop a tolerance, the Adderall becomes less and less effective. You can overcome the tolerance temporarily by increasing the dose but, in time, your brain will also develop a tolerance to the new dose.
