Is it harmful to take a 25mg adderall every day without a prescription?

In most cases no because after taking adderall for an extended amount of time your body learns to work with or without it but if you miss a day it is likely for you to get more stomach aches or head aches considering your body is working without its normal drug helping. So for a final answer in the long run no its not harmful but short term wise you can have some unpleasant side effects to make that day not such a good day compared to others.

Does everyone have ADD indirectly?

No, but everyone has symptoms of ADHD. The symptoms of ADHD include procrastination, getting bored easily, being unable to sit still, and having poor memory. These symptoms individually have been apart of everyone's life at some point or another; it is the combination and the duration that make a diagnosis for ADHD.

--I'm not gonna delete the previous authors comment (because that seems rude) but all my research and classes totally disagree with that statement. These are what seem like surface symptoms of ADHD, and yes, everyone has them at one time or another. But the real symptoms of ADHD are attention, planning, set-shifting, working memory, and motivation. And while average individuals can merely 'get their but in gear' to overcome those times of laziness, ADHD individuals lack the brain mechanisms to do so. They literally have deficits in cognition (and therefore behavior). Not everyone diagnosed has ADHD. And many people have it that aren't diagnosed. Also, it's a spectrum disorder, in that some cases are worse than others. But about 5% of the population likely has it. Why is seems more and more people have it is because we are more and more becoming an information laden society, that requires certain abilities in its productive members, abilities that are limited in ADHD individuals. So no, not everyone has it, but a lot of people do.

If you have 20mg of adderall how many do you take to get high?

Try coffee instead.

Don't take any drugs that aren't prescribed for you and then not until you have researched them thoroughly. Relying on other people for information is a crapshoot, and testing drugs on yourself is stupid.

Anxiety and paranoia are secondary symptoms in use of amphetamines and they are not good feelings.

Can Adderall be prescribed together with Strattera?

For common drug interactions, visit:

http://www.drugdigest.org/DD/Interaction/ChooseDrugs/1,4109,,00.html

There, you can "plug in" different drugs and find out if there are any known interactions.

You really need to ask a pharmacist to be sure. Don't gamble with drugs, drug combinations or your health. Call your local drug store. They'll be glad to assist.

Can you take coumadin and Adderall together?

Yes, acetaminophen in LOWER doses can be used for a short time while taking coumadin. When you exceed 1300 mg a day, this modifies the INR and the action of coumadin..

However if you take acetaminophen every day at the same dosage (e.g. 2 Tylenol 500 mg 4 times a day) and did when the Coumadin was prescribed, then your Coumadin dosage has already been adjusted for this interaction (as long as you reported it to your doctor), and there is no problem in taking acetaminophen in this way. However, if you stop your acetaminophen daily use, you need to advise your doctor and take a blood test for INR 6-7 days later.

How long is 10 mg adderall immediate release tablet in your system?

why are you worried about getting drug tested for adderall? I don't think they test for that in a typical drug test. besides, it's a legal medication Alternate answer Adderalls ingredients are d-amphetamine mixed with racemic amphetamine salts. Pretty much all multiple assay drug tests, even the ones only testing for 5 drugs, test for amphetamine. 10mg probably wont show up though, I've taken more then that the day before a urine test and passed.

Can you take adderall and dopa together?

Certainly--yet take heed of the warnings! Some drugs and supplements could combine well together. DMAE, which you may know to increase acetylcholine in the brain (at least most research asserts this), is technically a drug too/was a drug in development known in the early to mid 60's as Deaner. It is also found in fish to various extents. Given the potential elevation in acetylcholine, and the psychostimulant effect from the norepinephrine and dopamine releasing/reuptake inhibition of the Adderall, a slight, to potentially moderate synergistic (complementing) effect may occur. If, I assume correctly, you are attempting to increase the benefit for ADHD, which is the condition this mixed amphetamine product is designed to reduce symptoms for, realize that if you are taking the drug, truly have legitimized ADHD, the actual stimulant quality will abate within a few weeks to a few months after therapy has commenced. However, the concentration benefit will resume, despite a perceived, anecdotal lessened response. NEVER increase the dose beyond your prescribed daily amount! Persons afflicted with psychosis and bipolar disease should also NEVER take this supplement/drug unless expressly allowed to by a competent psychiatrist, or, better yet, a neuropsychiatrist, not just a family doctor. Bipolar persons could relapse to a manic state, whilst a worsening of symptoms in the schizophrenic spectrum category could be expected. Again--nothing is ever truly set in stone. That was the warning. Good luck on your therapy, because this (Adderall) is a powerful, therapeutic medication--an important differentiation, than from simply a "drug." Hope all is well and continues to remain so.

What are the side effects if a person that has ADD takes a 20mg adderall?

Can emergency rooms prescribe Adderall?

If there is a doctor there who finds the need to prescribe someone Adderall, then theres nothing stopping him/her. But usually this is unlikely because they have to evaluate you and give you tests for ADHD or ADD and that takes a few weeks. So I'd go with - probably not.

What is the correlation between Adderall and bad breath?

Bad breath is one of the possible side effects of Adderall. It is not a serious side effect that would require someone to stop taking it, but if it is not controllable with breath strips or frequent brushing of the teeth and tongue, you should talk to your physician about it. Hope this helps! Dr. B. Adderall causes you to become dehydrated. The more dehydrated you become, the drier your mouth becomes with leads to bad breath. I find that constantly drinking water is a better solution for me than breath strips, mints, mouthwash, and similar products which do not eliminate the problem but simply mask it.

Is Adderall like heroin?

Not unless you want a heart attack. Both are stimulants and both are amphetamines. Adding Adderall (basically speed) to ecstasy is not safe and is definitely not recommended. This could potentially lead to death, especially if the dosage of either one or both of the drugs is high.

  • It is important to note here that Estasy (MDMA - 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine) is illegal in most countries. Possessing, manufacturing, and selling Ecstasy can result in criminal charges and spending time in prison. Though studies are being done on the therapeutic effects of MDMA, it is currently used as a recreational drug in order to get a high. While some may share experiences of mixing it with other drugs, including Adderall, taking Ecstasy, whether by itself or with other drugs, is at your own risk.
  • They're both the same class of medications, amphetamines, and from my experience of having Ecstasy pills analyzed and seeing the analysis of many pills, the vast majority of the time there's some form of speed (standard amphetamine) in the Ecstasy pill anyway. Adderall (TM) itself is a mix of 4 different kinds of amphetamines. Adding another amphetamine, Ecstasy, to that mix, isn't a good idea.

If you take 10mg of adderall and go up in mg what are the effects?

Depends on tolerance and how much you go up by. If you take 10mg then go up to 20mg, the effects may last longer.

Can taking Adderall be harmful if you work out?

Answer:

I'm pretty sure there is no harm in working out on Adderall. But there is a fine line between simply working out and pushing yourself to the limits...

But, if you are taking it without a prescription in the hopes of getting better results from working out, I highly doubt that the Adderall would do much for that. If it is better performance during work out you want, you might want to try a little thing called steroids. [[ I really do not suggest taking steroids or Adderall without a prescription]]

Adderall is not harmful when you work out because it's a stimulant and sitting on your butt and doing nothing but being lazy all day while on adderall is VERY harmful to you. If you are working out on adderall, I highly recommend you drink plenty of water before, during, and after.

Could amphetamines show up on a drug test as cocaine?

Yes, unless the person conducting your drug test, does not want to specifically test for that, which would be unlikely at all levels. On a 5 panel drug test, which is the most commonly used, they test for Cocaine, Amphetamines (which could mean amphetamines, methamphetamines, and even ecstasy if it contained either of the two), Opiates, PCP, and of course THC. I have heard of under 5 panel drug tests before, but it is VERY unlikely. I know for a job of any sort where you need a urine analysis, you are commonly put to a 5 panel drug test or more. For probation or Rehabilitation depending on your drugs of choice they put you on a 5 panel drug test or more. So I am 100% sure that whichever drug test you are going to take, will test for amphetamines.

Where does the absorption of adderall take place in the body?

It is a salt pill...

Adderall is a name brand amphetamine salt. Adderall is ingested by swallowing a tablet which then dissolves in the STOMACH. Once Adderall is passed into the SMALL INTESTINE it enters the CIRCULATORY SYSTEM by way of the MUCOSA BRUSH MEMBRANE. SALT, WATER & POTASSIUM are required for OSMOSIS. Amphetamines cross the BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER.

The pharmacological interaction takes place within the BRAIN.

The problem here is that the action of the drug works inside the brain. We can study the electrical activity of a brain while it is still alive, but molecular absorption is a different story. So, there is controversy over most drugs for 'mental health'.

You aren't going to hear much from your DR. about the metabolic absorption unless you aren't responding to the drug. The metabolic absorption is part of a more crucial function & you would be having bigger problems if it wasn't working correctly, but may not realize if it isn't functioning 100%.

Adderall is not processed by the liver, but can affect the liver. However, you would probably be suffering from amphetamine hypertension. The liver would only be working to detoxify your blood for any number of chemical imbalances. The liver may also be prevented from producing digestive enzymes or synthesizing protein. Basically, Slow Death.

How do you get medication for bipolar disorder?

If you were diagnosed with bipolar then you should be getting your medication from either your Psychiatrist or family doctor.

Necrotising myositis after intravenous methylphenidat (Ritalin ) injection

A 30 year old male intravenous drug user was admitted with a swollen painful left thigh after injection of 30 mg methylphenidat (Ritalin). On examination, we found a softball-sized abscess in his left thigh. Striking lab results were a CK of 18 100 U/l, a CRP of 177 mg/l, and a WCC of 20.0x109/l. A CT scan revealed a large abscess that contained multiple pockets of gas, extending from the lesser trochanter to the distal femoral condyle (fig 1). The patient went to theatre and the abscess was excised and drained and an extensive debridement was performed. Macro- and microscopic analysis showed acute necrotising myositis and extensive abscess formation. The patient was re-examined 2 days later and the wound was closed. Thereafter, healing of the wound progressed well. The patient was discharged home 15 days postoperatively.

Are there any withdrawal symptoms from Adderall?

Amphetamines, including Adderall, can cause withdrawal symptoms in people who stop taking them too quickly. However, Adderall withdrawal is more likely to happen when people take higher doses of Adderall than recommended. People who take Adderall as prescribed for a legitimate medical purpose do not usually have withdrawal symptoms when stopping Adderall. Some withdrawal symptoms of Adderall can include extreme fatigue, depression, and changes in heart rhythm.

Is 80 mg of Adderall a day?

depends on your height and weight, and if it is the prescribed dose your doctor gave you, then of course its safe. But if you're using it to get high or to snort it or take it orally this really depends on your size. Adhd and add medications can have negative effects on people that are not diagnosed with adhd or add. Severe allergic reactions may occur, if you're not allergic you may get the feeling of a high; but you are not high your body is simply trying to get rid of the medications you put into your body. Please do not abuse ritalin, it is highly addictive.
