Which is stronger Adderall or Ritilan?

I would imagine Adderall is. I never took Ritalin, but I believe that's the generic form of Addy's.

Can Adderall effect paranormal awareness?

I love this question because the answer is possibly...

There has been very little research on chemicals, physiology and paranormal affects.

There was some studies using LSD and Psychedelic plants used in rituals and vision quests, in correlation to the paranormal. There is documentation that Nostradamus used a cocktail of psychedelics that assisted him in his prophetic visions of the future.

Some believe that chemicals that hyper-stimulate the senses can open awareness to things above the normal range of perception. The problem is determining what is sensing the paranormal and just plain hallucinating.

Can you take an adderall and have it show up as Ritalin in a drug test?

No, Adderall (TM) is a brand name for a mix of different amphetamines. Amphetamines are part of most standard drug tests while Ritalin (TM), which is the brand name for the drug methylphenidate, is not part of most standard drug tests.

So if you take an Adderall, you will test positive for amphetamines, and they would likely suspect you for methamphetamine use.

What is drug induced psychosis?

First Psychosis:

Psychosis is functionally a break with reality, wherein the patient exhibits hallucinations and/or delusions. The patient's objective grasp of reality is distorted. While psychosis can be treated, it really can't be cured.

Since psychology emerged as a science, folks have been arguing over whether psychosis was caused by neurophysiological issues (physical stuff and nature) or behavioral/cognitive issues (mind stuff, childhood and nurture). Since then, lots of progress has been made on both sides of this argument == there are empirical aspects of both. My guess is the reality of it is that both aspects factor into it.

However, drug induced psychosis or stimulant psychosis isn't the same thing at all. The drugs that induce this form of psychosis are all stimulants, most commonly amphetimines and cocaine derrivatives. These drugs, among lots of other things, induce temporary episodes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and they surely mess up the sleep cycle something fierce. Combine OCD with a hugely erratic sleep cycle and a lot of neurochemistry that occurs with stimulants, and weird things can happen.

One of these weird things is Stimulant Psychosis. While it manifests in ways that are similar to basic pshychosis, there are major differences in symptomology, etiology and -- most important -- the permanence of the pathology.

In laymans terms, stay awake on stimulants long enough and you'll halluncinate, display paranoia, develop memory and personality disorders, and generally act like a psychotic. However, this condition almost always reverses when the patient comes off the stimulants and gets some rest (I say "almost" as it's hard to say what happens when a natural psychotic starts hitting stimmulants? -- But anyway)...

Stimulant Psychoisis may present as an actual psychosis, but its treatment, mechanism and etiology are very different from actual psychosis.

Would taking Adderall twice weekly show up in a hair follicle test?

I don't see why not. Adderall's generic name is mixed amphetamine salt, which from what I understand is dexedrine (dextroamphetamine) and other various amphetamines combined w/ HCl (the "salt"). Any standard drug test will test for amphetamines. At any rate, the standard hair test tests the closest 1.5 " of hair to the scalp, thereby providing somewhere in the range of a 90-day drug history, variable depending on hair growth rates. I believe taking two adderalls a week would most likely put a user above the amphetamine cutoff level. If you are prescribed, you are fine. If not, I wouldn't say necessarily you're screwed, but you may want to do some more research.

What is the best non-stimulant ADHD medication?

The are only two non-stimulant medications approved for treating ADHD. The most notable is Strattera which is the better tested of the two; the second is Intuniv. The best drug for you could vary and you should work with your healthcare professional to find out which drug and dosage works best for you.

Could high doses of Adderall cause nerve damage?

Yes it could cause nerve damage. It's amphetamines- speed. If you take too much it could kill you. Adderall carries the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Answer
If you are used to taking adderall and have been taking it for a while then it will not hurt to start taking higher doses if it does not help with your focus factor. But you should not go over 60g. a day.

I don't think it causes nerve damage. I ingested a months supply on a 2day binge. No damage, wasn't very fun either.

No, you should be fine. It may hurt your nasal passage if snorted regularly, though.

What happens if you take adderall while taking a fluoroquinolone antibiotic?

An antibiotic of this class, such as Cipro has not been shown to have any interactions with Adderall. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist to discuss combining medications.

Your 7yr old is on 30Mg Adderall is this to much?

I am not a doctor but, personally speaking, I would not place a seven year old on Adderall at all nonetheless at 30 mg. per day. Adderall presents significant cardiovascular risks to both adults and children and, according to the FDA, though rare, it can cause sudden death in children. Additionally, if she is on 30 mg. now, what is she going to do for the rest of her life after she has reached the maximum Adderall dose and it has stopped working.

Can adderall make your heart muscle ache?

Clinically, I am not sure what the answer is but am curious myself because I too have felt minor sharp pains in that area while taking the medication. They usually come while at rest but not while exerting.

Could someone really be prescribed to 150mg of adderall a day?

Yes I am also I am sure there are a lot of others on that high dosage. It is unusual but some people have a fast metabolism and metabolize the pills fast, therefore build a tolerance and need higher doses. This is usually done gradually if an increase is needed.

Does 5 5mg Adderall equal 30 mg Adderall?

No. 5x5=25; not 30. Dosages of medication are pretty darned specific.

Is it bad to take an adderall and then a percocet an hour later?

What you're talking about is basically a watered down or "kiddy" version of what's called a "speed ball", a real speed ball being heroin and cocaine. Whether it's bad or not just depends on whether you plan to do this a lot, if you are already an addict, plan to be or have moral or responsibility issues on the subject.

Firstly, I think any logical person can agree than proselytizing or telling someone what they "should" do (to be more like them) is useless in these internet forum things. These forums are not soapboxes.

Ok, here it is, I was a junky for quite a while and I can tell you that what you're talking about is dangerous. It's a lottery. I was, personally, always able to mix drugs in huge amounts and rarely overdosed in a serious way (you should know that any time a prescription drug gets you high because you took more than prescribed this is technically an overdose.) An addict or junky overdoses everyday, maybe all day. But I had friends who died from much smaller doses of the same drug cocktails I would use on a daily basis. So, while combining drugs with opposite highs can be a lot of fun you are basically playing Russian Roulette.

Without preaching, my advice is that you stay away from prescription pain pills unless you really need them and even then you should try hard to find another way. Not because it's "bad", because it can make it hard to have a happy and productive life. Besides that, be careful with the opiates and amphetamines and if you need both (for whatever your own reasons may be) keep your doses low or if you actually want to become an addict, ease your way into and prepare for a ride that ends in misery. That's not a caveat either, really. Without the misery that addiction wrought on me, (not to mention the first few euphoric and amazingly productive years before the devil came to collect what I owed so to speak) I'd have missed quite a few things that helped my work and my growth as a person. That might sound messed up but it's my truth. While I see how full of bull someone like Timothy Leary was, I can appreciate the basic shamanism that William Burroughs, John Frusciante, or (maybe) Daniel Pinchbeck engaged in and the realizations that would have been impossible without delving into those realms, that abyss.

I got way off your point, but my reason for doing this was that anyone wanting an answer to the question you asked is obviously flirting with a stint as an addict and this is what I know or think about that.

Lastly, if you are doing this type of thing and think you won't become addicted or have no metaphysical or personally experimental reasons to do something this hard to yourself, please don't kid yourself. You could get lucky, yes. Addiction is a genetic predisposition and some people can be weekend warriors. This I can't help with as it was all or nothing for me.

Can you take adderall and nicoderm cq is it ok to mix while taking the nicoderm to quit smoking or will you have problems with that?

If you are taking Adderall because you have ADHD or narcolepsy, the first thing you need to realize that, neither the government nor doctors will tell you, is that you are smoking to combat the symptoms of your ADHD and/or narcolepsy. Nicotine is a potent stimulant that has the same effects as amphetamines on the brain. Indeed, there are a couple of scientific studies that have even recommended that a safe form of nicotine be explored for the treatment of ADHD. The effect of taking nicotine with Adderall is to potentiate (make more powerful) the Adderall.

What is ultracet and is it safe to take with your daily Adderall xr?

It depends on what dosage of each med you are taking. You should always ask your Doctor before mixing Rxs, because he/she knows your personal health history. If all else fails you can call poison control to find out if it's normally safe.
