Can you open an Adderall XR capsule to take it?
Here's what the Adderall website has to say:
Do not crush, chew, break, or open the capsule. Swallow it whole because it is designed to release the amphetamine and dextroamphetamine slowly. Breaking or opening the pill would cause the stimulant to be released too quickly. Drink a full glass of water with the Adderall.
If is is hard for your child to swallow Adderall XR whole, the capsule may be opened and the contents sprinkled into soft food such as applesauce or yogurt and taken immediately.
Do not drink fruit juices or take vitamin C with any form of amphetamine or dextroamphetamine. These can may reduce the absorption of the stimulant.
It has helped me to be more gentle with my children. It has helped me sleep better. It has also helped me with my relationship with my husband and children and also friends.

Some psychiatrist may also prescribe it for people diagnosed with depression that is not responding very well to the usual meds of antidepressants.
Adderall is known to be abused and is a controlled substance.
Adderall is also used to treat narcolepsy. Although it is a drug of abuse, studies have shown that the abuse is not usually among those who take it for ADD or ADHD or Narcolepsy but, instead, among those who take it who do not have these conditions.
Adderall is usually used to treat ADD, ADHD, and narcolepsy. It is sometimes also used for weight loss.
no, from what I've heard, you cannot freebase or smoke Adderall XR as-is. Not saying it's not possible, but i can honestly say I've never heard of it being done.
Can adderall help you pass a marijuana drug test?
No.
It is very unlikely for one drug to cause a false positive on a drug screen for any other substance. Drug screens test for metabolites of specific drugs. All drug tests have a rating based on specificity and sensitivity. The higher the sensitivity, the lower the specificity. Basically it is only possible to have a false positive by using another drug that is very chemically similar to the positive test. These drugs are not chemically similar.
Can you take Seroquel - to help you sleep - after taking Adderall?
I've been on prescription sleep aids prior to Melatonin, but prefer Melatonin over any prescription sleep aid. It works just as well, if not, better!!
How long does generic adderall 30 mg last?
to tell you the truth i popped a 30 at about 9 this morning then another at about 1 and its 3 in the morning and i thinks it is just got out of my system. long time. don't take one after 2 or 3 in the afternoon cause you wont go to sleep.
RE: Depends how long you have been taking 30 mg XR adderall. I've been taking it for 5 years now, and I really don't feel it kick in anymore. So where initially the 30 lasted roughly 6-8 hours now last maybe 4.5-5.0 hours. If you want to shorten the amount of time addy is in your system, open up the capsule itself and pour them into your mouth. It ought to shed at least 2 or 3 hours off its duration (strengh drops big time).
Daily Dose: [ (1) 30mg XRs (1) 30mg Regulars ] x 2 daily
---------------------
I'm not prescribed Adderall, but I have been taking 30mg doses fairly regularly now (1 - 2 times a week). And given I didn't ween myself onto the drug I have encountered pretty drastic side-effects. Aside from cotton-mouth later in the day which causes me to unconsciously chew my cheeks a bit, the stimulant/focus effect of this medication, at least in the 30mg dose, can last me multiple days depending on my activity level, and given most of my work is done at a computer and leaves me mostly stationary for hours on end, I've been able to ride the effect for upwards of 48 hours before crashing.
For the guy who said a Adderall 30mg XL works for 48 hours. Dude, the effects wear off at the very longest 12 hours. You mind is tricking you to believe that that it's still working 24-48hours later giving you a placebo effect once it's worn off. Even the half-life has warn off completely. The adderall AND it's metabolites could even be out of your system in 48 hours. You have a powerful mind bro. Anyways adderall XR is supposed to last for 12 hours. But it depends how high your tolerance is, if you ate before you took the medication, your metabolism, etc. It all depends on the person.
Adderall XR is an extremely powerful drug and I've had some experiences with it as well, and as someone who's been taking different variations of ADHD medication off and on for over a year now and without having the illness or having a prescription , I'm going to have to agree with the guy who claims he's felt some of this drugs effects in his system for up to 48 hours it may seem like. I've experienced somewhat similar symptoms but i wouldn't necessarily classify the specific feelings you've been having as far as feeling like the drug is still working in your body, because that's physically impossible. However, you and i alike probably have just as intense "comedown" symptoms which isn't necessarily the easiest feeling to set aside from the original effects Adderall takes on one's body. Thank you.
Does Adderall affect birth control?
No, I've been taking both for years and have never had a problem.
As a rule of thumb birth control pills work beside anything, but read through both of the usage information sheets and consult a doctor if still in doubt.
Can you drink alcohol while taking Adderall?
It is not recommended to drink alcohol while taking Ritalin. In general the stimulants and depressants together are bad (see Four-Loko). The effects of the alcohol are significantly less pronounced and often lead the user to drinking themselves into a dangerous state. If you do, take note of this fact and drink small amounts to determine how the combination effects you.
Can you take Adderall and nyquill?
Yes you can because it does not have the same ingredient that Tylenol cold does, which acts as a stimulant. I asked my primary care doctor and he said NyQuil PM. is OK while prescribed Adderall, but Tylenol cold PM. is not OK.
Is it 'safe' for me to take diphenhydramine and adderall?
This is a nonsensical drug combination and would generally be considered an unsafe combination. Both diphenhydramine and chlorpheniramine are antihistamines, so a given patient would use one or the other only.
Is Wellbutrin the same kind of drug as Adderall?
Two different trade names for the same drug : Bupropion
Is Adderall an amphetamine or a methamphetamine?
No, Adderall is not considered METHampehtamine.
Adderall is a combination of four amphetamine salts
1 racemic amphetamine aspartate monohydrate,
2 racemic amphetamine sulfate,
3 dextroamphetamine saccharide, and
4 dextroamphetamine sulfate
Adderall works as a reuptake inhibitor for dopamine and norepinephrine.
Amphetamine is the name for the chemical compound: methylated phenylethylamine. Methamphetamine is the same thing, but it is double methylated, instead of only methylated once.
Because of the double methylation, meth has a stronger, FASTER, effect on the body (not longer lasting). The strong/fast effect is what causes extreme chemical/physical dependence and addiction.
It is worth noting that methamphetamine breaks down into amphetamine when it is metabolized. This means that meth turns into amphetamine in the body, and is excreted as amphetamine.
Finally, amphetamines are very similar to nor/epinephrine, naturally made phenylethylamine substance from human adrenals. synthetic versions can/do severe damage to the sympathetic autonomic nerve system (e.g., cause of myocardial infarctions, rage/violence, etc.).
(note: "racemic" means mix of both levo and dextro enantomers of the chemical moity. "dextro" means right 'handed', levo means left 'handed'. Important since some drugs have only a certain shape (levo or dextro) that are effective, and some a mix of both is most effective).
Can adderall or zanax effect alcohol breath tests?
No; Adderall will not change the way a breathalyzer test is registered. Adderall can cause a person intoxicated to feel less so, but the test will register the amount of alcohol in your breath accurately. You may feel more sober, but you will not be legally and according to the test.
How bad is Adderall withdrawal?
Tramadol is highly addictive. Normally your doctor would reduce intake slowly. Various withdrawal effects may include shakes, shivers, diarrhea, nausea, and possible flu-like symptoms. Not all people experience will all withdrawal symptoms, and some people may experience others not listed here.
It depends on the medicine. There would be no harm from chewing an aspirin. Some medicines should not be released in the mouth, so they have a coating to keep the actual medicine from dissolving before it gets to the stomach.
Will a 30mg dose of adderall be detected by a urine test five days later?
Probably not. Adderall™ is a collection of four amphetamine salts, each of which has a half-life of between 11-13 hours in healthy adults. This means that the drug is almost entirely metabolized/excreted 78 hours after ingestion.
Can synthroid and Adderall be taken together?
In the case of my daughter, diagnosed with ADHD, BiPolar syndrome, and a seizure disorder, yes. A neurologist working in concert with a psychiatrist prescribed 30mg. Adderall and 200mg. Lamictal QD.
What is the maximum safe dosage of Adderall XR?
The maximum dose will vary by patient age and by what you are using the drug to treat, but the maximum recommended beginning dose for an adult is 20 mg per day. After that, the dose meeds to be customized by your doctor, based on how your body reacts.
The risks and potential benefits of the medication must be carefully evaluated by your doctor before beginning treatment or changing the dose. Increasing the dose of Adderall also increases the risks of serious adverse events including high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, and sudden death.
Can you take Adderall and rhodiola rosea?
I had a friend who had a very bad experience with this. He became nauseated, anxious and just felt extremely tweaked out. This is likely because Rhodiola Rosea has MAOI action causing all the extra dopamine that adderall dumps in your brain to accumulate and not get metabolized.
Can taking more adderall than the recommended dose make you sleepy?
NO it actually makes you more hyper. It's not until after the adderall wears off that you get sleepy.
