I used hydrogen peroxide, mouth wash, brushed teeth, and hand sanitizer right before I took the test! Please reply if any of this has helped you pass. ## Did you pass ur test after using so soon before your test? And what all had u done before it? Just curious cause I'm waiting on results of my own. ## How do I pass a mouth swab for methamphetamine? ## Ok so i read this page & many other pages last night. Last time i used was 10pm last night, i had a swab test this morning 12 hours later. I brushed my teeth really good this morning, also ate a raw onion as advised in a post, and right befor my test I chewed mints and drank coffee was shewing gum during the test I s...
I've been reading, and posting about Adderall, specifically Amphetamine Salts vs. Amphetamine IR. I think I need to mention that I was prescribed Adderall for depression, not ADD. ## Hi Wendy, Thanks for sharing your experience with Adderall. How effective do you find it to be for managing symptoms of depression? I've never heard of anyone being prescribed it for that purpose, but I can imagine how a boost in energy and being more productive during the day might take away some of those gloomy feelings...especially during this time of year when people are just trying to stay warm inside their home. Has anyone else tried it for depression and what are your thoughts? ## I beleive I was on the Mayo Clinic website looking up Adderall when I noticed it was indicated for depression. My...
Started using Evekeo 10 mg 2 x daily. It is ineffective. Supposed to last 4-6 hours -- ACTUALLY 2 hours for me. After two hours I feel like one who is having a panic attack, tight chest, lump in throat ... I am a gastric bypass patient and have used Vyvanse 70 mg which is very effective for between four and five hours. Gastric Bypass patients find that extended release medications anathema because of malabsorption, lack of bioavailability that is a concrete result that the procedure restricts or removes the digestive system's integrity -- (Removal of the stomach's duodenum which produces the necessary acids, enzymes and proteins is truncated/restricted "absent" thereby er/xr formulas' CANNOT BE RELEASED appropriately) so that duration of extended release mechanism is...
Updated in Evekeo OdtI recently got R3060 blue caps. They have like an orange bead color, but I keep hearing it's supposed to be white powder or just white. I need to know what color/colors the beads themselves come in. I'm feeling like someone put something else in the capsule. I tried researching what color the beads are and no luck. Thanks everyone ## I just opened mine up and the beads are all white. I've been researching all night because since I've been switched to this brand of generics I have been depressed, really sleepy and have had horrible symptoms while it wore off including headaches. I've also been grinding my teeth a lot, which I never do. I am planning on calling my doctor tomorrow because I don't like this feeling at all. (I had this prescription filled at cvs inste...
Please help me find adderall coupons for 20mg twice daily. There seems to be a limit on a lot of coupons when it says a month's 30 capsules. I really need help. Thank you ## Have you spoken to your doctor or pharmacist about getting the generic? If you're not on the time released, which I assume you aren't, since you are taking it twice daily, there is a generic available called Mixed Amphetamine Salts and it is much cheaper than the name brand product. As to the coupons, the only ones I have seen available are basically the same as the ones you have seen, they are limited to 30 capsules and really only give a discount at certain pharmacies that accept them. And, unfortunately, the manufactured has discontinued their assistance program for this medication, which used to help...
What kind of reaction am I to expect from taking 30mg of vyvanse & 16mg of subutex &125mg of librium on a daily basis? I feel well balanced out, outgoing & confident. I am well focused & Function on the top of my game. ## The main concern is the mixing of the Librium and Vyvanse, since they can both increase serotonin levels, if they go too high, it can lead to a possibly fatal condition called serotonin syndrome. That doesn't mean they can't be taken together, successfully, but that your doctor must carefully calculate your doses and should be monitoring your regularly to watch for any possible problems. Side effects may include dizziness, insomnia, nervousness, mood swings and weight loss. Is there anything else I can help with? ## i am prescribed adderall 30mg...
I think my pharmacist put the wrong pill in my script bottle and there doesn’t seem to be anyone who can find what it is. The closest is a green one w the same markings k 101 which is Ritalin and I’ve never taken that and I have taken a days worth of the pain meds and I’m scared I took the wrong medicine my pharmacy is closed and closed tomorrow so I can’t get them to confirm. I’m traveling out of state. I’ve talked to pharmacist and poison control. No one can find a light blue pill with these markings. It’s def not green. I’m just scared because I take oxycodone 10 mg for chronic pain but I’ve never taken any kind of Ritalin it adderall or amphetimine and now i May have take it for a whole day and i have to sleep to work tomorrow an...
I found a small round pill that says "gg" on one side and the other side is scored with "790" on it. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated - concerned mother ## I found a round yellow tablet line on one side to cut tablet in half and A79 enbossed on the other side.The A is rounded on the apex.. ## I noticed this site had great ?'s but few answers, so being bored as I am, I will ans the ? about expiration date and Medicine. Anytime there is a ex date, it should be aknowledged as the date you want to refer to in taking meds. Now, if it has never had a seal broken, this may give you some extra time in regards to freshness. It would probably serve as 6mo date. Take meds only through the severity of the condition you are taking it for and then discard the r...
My pharmacy changed the generic brand to this company Mylan - M A20. I don't feel like it works as well as the oval pill I used to take. (Sorry I don't know what brand it was). Is anyone else experiencing the same? Thank ## You are right... I have been on the 30mg tablets for years! It has gotten to the point that so many people take adds now days that I am used to calling ahead of time to make sure the pharmacy I am going to actually has the strength & quantity that I need in stock before taking it up there or driving around and driving around all day some pharmacies actually won't even tell you unless you're already in their system that you had it filled there before but that's just some pharmacies. I personally have never come across that problem but I know pe...
I took less than .3 grams of methamphetamine about 2 months ago and have been clean for over a year, and took a hair follicle 4 days ago. Will it show up on a hair follicle test? ## Used method on on Halloween night and some of the next morning. Used method once about 2-3 months before then. Had been clean about a year before this. Took a hair test yesterday. Will it be positive? ## About 1in a half months ago i did not even a .2 grams of meth. I go today for a hair strand that goes back 90 days. Will i pass it? ## I've been clean for a yr. Had a hair test april 2015 which was neg. If I had just a little bit in april and have another hair test in july is there a chance it will it come back positive? ## Hair test goes back three months no matter what anybody tells u, there just tryin...
I need a Doctor that will prescribe adderall or other ADHD medications in Portland, OR. I had a script before I moved here, but no luck finding a doctor that will let me have my script again. I really need this medication. I do not abuse it, but recently I've had a terrible time with Care Oregon. I'm willing to pay out of pocket, but some psychiatrists still will not even take an appointment with me bc I'm in the system under Care Oregon. In Arkansas, it was no problem. I had medicaid. My medicade was smoothed over due to the affordable care bs and it has been a year of red tape. I'm moving back to California and I am sure it will be very difficult there as well. Anyone know what I should do? I am thinking that I should schedule an appointment with a private practice and...

Im desperate at 50 years old and not be able to find an answer for this . I need help yesterday Does any body have any feedback for this . ## Hello, I'm so sorry to hear about your situation. Have you ever tried anything besides prescription medication? I have dealt with ADD the majority of my life ...
I was diagnosed with ADHD and was prescribed Adderall (I believe the bottle was 10mg of amphetamine salts but I think it had a word that started with a d like Dextroamphetamine maybe?) Anyways, I tooke it more than a few times and it was SUCH A HELP you could tell the difference. So then I got my refill and was pretty happy. However, today is my first day taking the refill, and although it is the same 10mg dosage as before, I feel no effects.... My body should be use to the adderall because I've taken it before, so why am I not experiencing any of the effects at all? It feels like I was given sugar pills haha. However the pills look exactly like before. Should I just continue to take them through out the week and hope they begin to work? If they don't what should I tell my docto...
I was taking 15mg Adderall XR white and clear capsules with blue inside and they worked great for about 6-8 hours then I crashed. I asked my Dr. about it and he just said we would try it for another month. Ok, however, when I got my new prescription, it was generic. I never thought anything of it. I have been taking it for about a week the same dose and directions as before. I am not getting the same results, I don't crash, but that is probably because it doesn't even feel like it is working. What i have now is a white and peachish colored capsule and it says Amphetamine ER on the bottle. I am just wondering if I am not getting the same amount of medicine as I was with the name brand and if maybe anyone else has had this issue. ## There can be slight fluctuations in the active i...
HOW CAN I GET COUPONS FOR MY ADDERALL PRESCRIPTIONS? ## I'm sorry, but there aren't any current coupons for Adderall or its generics. Since generics are already cheaper than the name brand, there rarely are programs for many of them and, when there are, it's usually just on medications that are considered life sustaining. You may want to check with your pharmacy and see if they work with any of the free prescription savings cards programs. If they do, you can print the card and it may save you a little bit of money on your prescription. What's the current cost in your area? ## Cindy I know this is an old thread but the previous post is now out of date and inaccurate. Adderall and the generic forms can be filled using free coupons such as the discount card that this site ...
April 7th of 2015 i had taken 30 mg adderall. I have a hair test coming up, september of 2015. I cut my hair a little over 90 days after the last use and let my hair grow out since then for this test. Will it show up in a hair follicle test? ## A hair drug test is meant to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample of hair, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. With that small amount of use my best educated guess is that it will not show up in a hair drug test. ## Before that i was heavy using, roughly 15 of 30 mg a month... last use was 30 mg in april. ## If they only test back 90 days you still should be OK provided you didn't do much in the last 90 days. ## I haven't done any in 5 months. Last use was april 9th. ## My job requires employees to take a randomly dis...
How can i obtain a prescription for adderall when i live in LA, have no health insurance whatsoever, and no money to pay for a doctor visit much less the pills? I know it would help me and don't know where to turn ## Have you tried checking to see if there are any clinics in you are that will let you see a doctor on a sliding fee scale? These are usually geared towards people with no insurance and they base their fees on your income, so if you don't have a lot of money you pay nothing or a very low fee. As for the Adderall itself, if they do give you a prescription for it, the manufacturer, Shire RIchwood, INC has an assistance program that you can apply for by calling them at 1-866-325-8229. There are many different assistance programs available, so if you do get to see a docto...
Looking for a XR 30mg generic coupon. ## Coupons are not available for generic medications, by the very nature of their being generic, they are usually cheaper than the name brand, even without coupons. Even for the name brand Adderall XR, there are no current coupons and the manufacturer has also discontinued their assistance program for it. Have you tried just shopping around to check prices at different pharmacies in your area? Editor's note: this message has been deemed out of date and inaccurate. ## That response is 100% wrong. I have been on adderall for 9 years now and when i lost my insurance, i switched to generic about 5 years ago, and I have an internet coupon that I printed off and use as insurance and it knocks down the originally 80 something dollars to like 30 somethi...
Can I have some information on this drug? ## I am prescribed methylphenidate/10mg, Carisoprodol/350mg and Diazepma/10 mg. Will this keep me from getting a job since they are legitimate prescriptions? ## Methylphenidate is most commonly used to treat ADHD, shift work sleep disorder, narcolepsy. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, insomnia, and anorexia. Not, they should not interfere with you getting a job, Avita, but if they test, you should make sure they are aware of what you are taking, to avoid any problems. They may also require proof that they have been prescribed for you. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I was taking 20mg actavis mfg and now the pharmacy has switched to KVK mfg 20mg and I couldn’t...
I'm going to my doctor Tomorrow to tell him I can't get my adderall 20mg filled anywhere in our are. I have called every day pharmacy within 20 miles, I'm told good luck. I don't know what he will give me and I don't really know what to except.. any FEEDBACK would have great.
