White oblong shaped pill - One side is scored with a 4 on one side and a 2 is on the other. On the back side it is smooth with a J on it. What is it please? ## This tablet is manufactured by Aurobindo Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 200mgs of Modafanil, which is most commonly used to treat ADHD and Narcolepsy. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, and anorexia. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi, I have a question to ask hoping someone here can answer it for me. I currently am prescribed Adderall 10 mg twice daily and it makes me feel terrible physically and also causing vision problems. I plan to report these side effects to my prescribing physician as soon as I can and I'm going to ask to switch my meds to Vyvanse. I would like to see if it is better for me as opposed to Adderall. If my doctor does switch me to Vyvanse, will I be allowed to fill the Vyvanse even though I recently had my Adderall filled or is it required a person has to wait a month for a 30 day supply? Is it considered the same med, the Adderall & Vyvanse? ## No, they are not considered the same medication, so you should be able to get it filled, as long as your doctor approves. The FDA lists its t...

Hi - our 14 year old daughter has been on prescribed adderall and Zoloft for about 2 years for ADD-inattentive and an anxiety disorder. We just found out that she has been experiencing visual and auditory hallucinations for the past 3-5 months. They're low level, and she describes them as annoying. She hears conversations in the background that are low volume and impossible to distinguish words. The voices don't tell her to do anything, and are not conversational - just background noise. She sees insects crawling down her papers at school and on walls and celings. She describes it as distracting and annoying. She's not frightened by it, and doesn't find the hallucinations engaging. We are of course, fairly terrified by this! We are aware that mid adolescence is when mental

for the last two months 2 different pharmacies gave me some new all orange capsule, supposedly a new generic adderall xr 30 mg. these make me fall asleep and i do not feel the same as the amphetamine salt combo i have been on for three years now. anyone else having the same experience? ## Hi Shaun, When you switch brand names or manufacturers, the drug itself doesn't change, but rather the binders or fillers that they put with it. For this very reason, I believe the differences and side effects you are feeling have a lot to do with certain "inactive" ingredients that may or may not be present in each brand. I'm frustratingly surprised that doctor's and pharmacists don't mention this to their patients, after giving them a completely different script without prior ...

I have been looking and calling psychiatrists near my area but the ones that are close never call me back for an appointment or are already full with patients. I am having a really hard time at home and work & need to see a Dr. ASAP, but keep reaching dead ends. Can anyone help me with a doctor and maybe your experience with them? Thanks! ## Hi, I've had issues with severe fatigue and am looking for doctors near Scranton, Pa that would prescribe adderall to help.

Last year my granddaughter was taken from my daughter by office of children's services (she was legally taken from my daughter, but we all live in the same house). They suspected my daughter of doing drugs. immediately after taking my grandaughter who was about 18 months at the time they did a hair follicle test which came out positive for methamphetamine. We believe this test is inaccurate because while my daughter may have done drugs (which is she is working on that) she never did anything around her daughter. I know this because my daughter was not home very much and my grandaughter was almost always being cared for by us (my husband and I, as well as her 4 uncles.) although I know my daughter made some poor decisions she loves her daughter more than anything and would never expo...

i want to know if i took 10 mg of adderall for 1 week and ive not had any for 4 days, should i test positive for a urine screen tomorrow. ## It can vary, somewhat, from person to person, depending on your metabolism, length of use, amounts used, overall health and etc. but Amphetamines are generally detectable for up to 5 days, after use. If you have a prescription for it, however, you only need to inform them of this, when you go in for testing. Are there any other questions? ## If I took one 25mg xr adderall and exactly two weeks later I had a urine test. Will it be out by then? ## I want to know if I can depute a test for adderall. ## I took a 20 mg adderall today and I don't normally take them. But I have a urine test Tuesday will it show up? ## Took 40 mg adderall Sunday had ur...

I would like to know how to obtain a prescription. ## send info please ## Desoxyn was prescribed to me and my son for narcolepsy. It is amazing that such a safe & effective drug was taken off the market. We have not been awake since the discontinuince of desoxyn. We currently take adderrall & dexedrine, they don't come close. What a better world it would be if it were still available. ## If you have ADD , ADHD or Narcolepsy, Your Doctor can write you a script. Usually only if nothing else works! Provigil...ect...Aderrall, ritilan, Dexadrine.... Just makes my heart beat fast, gives me the jitters and makes me feel .....scared!???? DESOXYN does not do this. It is absorbed much better in the fatty tissue of the brain. The HORROR stories are from the crap sold on the steet. 15 t...

What are my chances of passing a hair follicle test after this one time use? Could the test come out with a super high reading? ## Oh boy, I also take hair folicle test for my job, but only upon initial hiring. YES IT WILL SHOW UP!! However, there is still hope. Used methamphetamine years ago, A LOT. They have ability to go back years, but companies normally have a standard 60 day past history on the hair follicle. Who cares if you took it yrs ago, they are more focused on what you're using today. And another chance, is there is a cleansing shampoo out there that will ensure you pass any kind of hair follicle test. Most health stores carry it. I know it works. I've used it to pass my parole officers hair test. Lol. Google it. ## I've been clean for a year. A week ago I took ...

I was recently prescribed Adderall by my doctor for Adult ADD. My pharmacy gave me Amphetamine Salt. Is there anything different at all in this and does it cause a different effect on you. I am 49 years old and want to get what I am to be taking, not something that has other medications add to it other than what Adderall has in it. I am a little concerned about it. I only want what I am prescribed and haven't had a chance to talk to my doctor about it yet. ## They are the same thing. They only difference is one is the generic and one is the name brand. Does exactly the same thing so you should be fine. ## @Cindy, Dave (post #1) is right about them being the same drug. But if you're used to taking brand name Adderall and are switching to another tablet/capsule, there may be discr...

It has been found that in some people with symptoms such as yours, adding a stimulant, such as Adderall can result in their being able to focus on the necessary tasks.

so i am a college student and my friend is prescribed 50mg vyvanse... i used to take about 1 every couple weeks to help me study for exams, and i loved how focused it got me so i started taking them about 2-3 times a week. i have been doing this for a couple months. but lately, if i'm not on it, i feel extremely anxious and feel like i can't talk or do anything normal.... please realize i am aware that the use of this medication when not prescribed is not a good thing to do.... but ever since the first couple of times, i feel like i need it in order to study, be happy, or even talk to people. i want to stop so badly but the anxiety (esp. social anxiety) when i'm NOT on it is horrible - i feel nervous to even go hang out with my best friends. then if i take it, i feel confide...
