How can you ask your doctor to prescribe Dextrostat for ADHD?
THe amphetamines - especially absent Adderall - can be extremely dangerous. The only other member of the family (other than dextroamphetamine and amphetamine) marketed in the US is literally the last amphetamine left standing: methamphetamine HCl, once (and still) marketed here by Abbot Labs as Desoxyn and by what was then Burroughs-Wellcome as Methedrine. There were injectable dosage forms of Methedrine available that almost killed many people who received a "lift" out of the torpor of recovering from anaesthesia with a shot of Methedrine.
Much more so than Adderall will EVER be, Dextrostat and Dexedrine are subject to misuse, abuse and addiction, to say nothing of wholesale diversion if prescribed to adolescents.This has to do with the various d- and -dl-amphetamines salts in Adderall. Long story short, if too take more than you're supposed to, the nasty side effects residing in the dl- part of the molecule usually ensures patients won't make the same mistake twice.
Why in the world would I ask any doctor write for amphetamines on MY (s patient's) Narcolepsy is pretty damned rare. Occasionally we use Dexedrine in 5-15mg/day in order to augment multiple drug therapy in patients whose depression has been refractory to other pharmacological treatment. It can be a very safe drug and, to this day, a helpful drug to psychiatrists. However, this is one case where the feds are NOt overreacting. A competent neurologist or psychiatrist really is the only type of physician that I believe should write for Dexedrine or Dextrostat, even though all of us whose Controlled Substance prescriptive privilege has not been limited by the DEA!!
Will a 80 mg Adderall still be in your system after two weeks?
no, adderall and other amphetamines are only detectable up to 72 hours in the urine after the last dose.
Should I avoid drinking alcohol while taking Adderall XR?
It is recommended by pharmacists to avoid drinking alcohol while taking Adderall.
Adderall seems to over ride the effects of the alcohol, the person drinking may not feel that they are getting drunk. So they keep drinking more, and more, and more. But the alcohol is still present in their body and can do damage.
Having one or two drinks will not be harmful. Just be careful and don't overdo it.
Under Federal law Adderall is classified as Amphetamines, same category as Methamphetamine, there is no way to distinguish between the two on a drug test so if you fail for adderall you also fail for Methamphetamine! If one is caught with adderall without a prescription that person would be charged with:
- It is a disorderly persons offense just to be under the influence of a prescription drug that was not lawfully prescribed. It is also a disorderly persons offense to possess 4 units or less of a prescription medication illegally obtained.
- It is a third degree crime to possess at least 5 but no more than 100 units of a prescription drug without a valid prescription. The maximum fine for this third degree offense is $200,000.
- It is a second degree crime to distribute or possess 100 or more units of a prescription drug without a valid prescription from a licensed physician. The maximum fine for this second degree offense is $300,000.
And treated the same as any other illegal drug.
Answer: No, it does not. Only 5mg, 7.5mg, 10mg, 12.5mg, 15mg, 20mg, and 30mg exists for Adderall. But sometimes if necessary doctors will prescribe you 30mg and 10mg bottles at the same time, but 40mg is pretty high, so it happens not too often. hope this helps.*****
If you just started taking Adderall (XR I am assuming??), then your doctor, like most others, probably started you out at a very low dose such as 10mg. The purpose of this is to slowly acquaint your system with the medication, as well as to intend to increase the dosage because each person is different and may require different dosages. If you doctor did not tell you to increase your dosage in 1, 2, 3 etc. weeks, then you should probably contact him/her and let him/her know you need to increase your dosage.
Can you mix Adderall and vicodin?
When you are taking any kind of drug combination, please do not rely on hear-say. Check with your doctor or pharmacist. Mixing drugs that are not compatible is very dangerous.
You should not mix adderall with vicodin, meaning do not take them at the same time. I have ADD and a herniated disc so my Dr. did give me rx for both, but told me to take 1 10mg at 8 am and another at noon of the adderall to control the ADD. She said it would be ok to take no more than 2, 5 mg tabs of vicodin at bedtime for my back. It did help with insomnia from the adderall and my back pain. Like all rx's. Take them EXACTLY as Dr. ordered. If you are prone to abuse you run the risk of damaging your kidneys. Also drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, and avoid caffeine. Taking both at the same time is equivelent to "speedballing" which can cause serious damage to your heart. If you take them at the same time they counteract each other and throws your brain out of wack. As always everyone is different and you should consult your Dr. and go to the Dr. to have your vitals checked regularly.

Does adderall xr stunt your growth or delay puperty?
I think I does, I'm 15 years old, I act mature, but I am 5'3, very short among others, and I haven't really started puberty yet. I've been on Adderal XR for probably 7 years or more now. I hardly eat, Sometimes I won't eat at all for like 2 days, Other times I'll eat 1 meal a day. And usually I only eat after I smoke. The smoking may have stunted my growth, but its a new habit, my puberty should have started way before. But yes I do think it delays it.

No, adderall is taken for ADD and ADHD its like speed for people without ADD or ADHD if you have anxiety do not take adderall it will make your heart race and you will be going a million miles and hour and you will not be able to calm down.
Why won't pharmacy refill adderall with a refill on script?
Adderall is a Schedule II narcotic. This class of drugs are legal, but have the highest potential of abuse. For this reason, a doctor can not give a refill or call-in a script for these drugs, he must see the patient in person and write them a new script every time. So the reason the pharmacy won't refill the prescription is because it shouldn't have refills in the first place.

Yes. Adderall is stimulant and Darvocet is an opiate. They can safely be taken together without waiting 24 hours. Darvocet is also one of the weakest and most mile pain relievers as far as opiates go. Adderall is a therapy drug meant to be taken on regular schedule. It is safe to take with an opiate.
What is the recreational dose of Adderall?
The recreational use of Adderall, which contains amphetamine salts, is not recommended due to its potential for abuse and serious health risks. Individuals may take doses significantly higher than the prescribed therapeutic range, often exceeding 30 mg, to experience increased energy or focus. However, this practice can lead to dangerous side effects, including cardiovascular issues, anxiety, and addiction. It's important to use medications only as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
What happens when the executrix of a will is a drug addict?
I would figure that, that person will still get what was left to him no matter what his condition is. On the other hand I'm pretty sure you can try and take him/her to court and try to do something about it. You can bring anyone to court over anything and win nowadays.
You will feel full effects of the drug within one hour of taking it.
If you snort adderall will you get high off it even if you have ADD?
Sure, if you want to trigger anxiety attacks, overstimulate your body, and heck, let's just throw in a heart attack for kicks. No one should ever snort adderall, whether or not they have ADHD. That being said, usually the snorters don't have it, and are thus even more at risk for dangerous side effects of adderall in pill form, and can die from snorting it. Maybe not the first time (depends on your body) but you are seriously damaging it and can kill yourself surprisingly quickly.
Are children sometimes overly emotional while on Adderall XR?
My 8 year-old son has been very moody and has experienced bad temper and even "crisis" since he has been Adderall XR. We are seeking the advice of a psychiatrist to find out what's going on and maybe switched back to Ritalin which he has benn taken for the past two year. . I was asking myself about the same answer...
I'm not a psychiatrist, but I've been on Ritalin, Adderall, and Adderall XR since being diagnosed with ADHD. Also, I teach high school English, so I do have a little insight from students as well. Everyone will react differently to each drug due to dosage, brain chemistry, other medications, and don't forget environmental factors. I don't know how much this helps, but I HATED the XR. I went back to regualar Adderall after trying XR for one month because it didn't feel like it was working--on the same mg dosage as the regular Adderall. With ADD and ADHD many are diagnosed with depression prior to ADD or ADHD or what's known as a "cluster" because symptoms are all over the place. For example, disorganization of personal space (bedroom, car, locker, desk) causes depression. Trying and being unable to organize causes anxiety and sometimes mini-manic cleaning episodes (doing tasks that have an end in sight like alphabetizing CD's or books). Once organized these symptoms disappear. However, once you plateau on your medication, the cycle starts to rear its ugly head again, depression begins, and so on. The anger/frustration/lashing out may come from being at a "plateau" from the XR releasing at a different rate than a Ritalin. Ritalin zaps you into alertness, XR hums. The change may be too drastic and it feels like a lower dose than he is used to taking. I would definitely talk to my doctor after a month is there was no improvement

How long does 20mg of cilatopram last?
I can feel my medicine wearing off just about 24 hours after taking it. The "coming and going" effects a lot more extreme for me during the first few weeks, because it sedates you a lot more during the time that its most active. I'm on my seventh week of taking Cilatopram, so I can feel less "withdrawal", if you will, between dosages. Just give it time to sink in and your body will get more used to it. Also, I reccommend taking it before bed so that you dont feel completely stoned throughout the day. ...Or maybe you'd prefer that..hah. Your call.
