I took adderall tbursday and friday.i have a urine test on monday will i pass? ## By Monday, there is a good chance that it will still be detected, because Amphetamines can usually be detected in a standard urine test for approximately 5 days, after last dosing. Learn more Amphetamine details here. Are there any other comments or questions? ## If I took adderrall on Tuesday and the urine test showed non negative and they are sending it out is there a chance I will be under the threshold and not get fired? Cause I don't have a prescription? ## I weight176 and i am 5'4 how long would it take for amphetamines to be out of my urine. ## Female 63 yr old, at 160 lb, 5'7". Taking phentermine 37.5 mg. How long does it stay in my system?

My 8 yr old son was diagnosed with ADHD at the end of the school year last year... The doctor out him in Focalin XR 5 mg at the beginning... I took him off for summer and started him back at the beginning of this school year... His grades went from very low to all a's this year... I had noticed lately that he was becoming very moody and having mood swings it seemed like he couldn't help when he would be coming off of them at night... I stressed my concern to his pediatrician so he has switched him to aderall XR 5mg... My insurance does not cover the true form so we ended up with the generic... He has been on it for 2 days now and seems up and down... I was wondering how long I should wait for this to level in his system before I decide if this is the meds he needs to be on and w...

I've been taking 20 Mg TID of IR generic Adderall > 10 Yrs. Although some "experts" claim they are very, very habit forming, I MUST disagree. Even after +10 Yrs, I have little problem discontinuing the drug at any point. The same goes for benzodiazepines. Possibly it's because I personally adhere or ingest < is directed or skip for weeks on end. This "abuse potential" may be inherent in some. Personally, I believe it is overstating this possibility to "play it safe". The statement, "Drug abusers typically have the tendency to increase the dosage on their own initiative". Which may be true. Most intellegent folks understand that doing that will simply decrease the effectiveness when it is REALLY NEEDED. ## Hello, Kim! How are you? It really...

Is there a generic name for focalin in 10mg & 20mg available? If so can CVS pharmacy get it? In the 10 & 20 mg? ## Hello, Twinkle! How are you? The generic name, as listed by the FDA, is Dexmethylphenidate and yes, CVS should be able to get it, in either strength. This medication is classified as a stimulant, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, nervousness, insomnia and weight loss. Is there anything else I can help with?

Anyway, The new deal prodrug drugs, like patches with long active fomulas and more effective.You cannot inject them or swallow them after crushing a patch.. ## Hello, Kim! How are you? No, Focalin is still available in the U.S., it is now classified by the FDA as a schedule 2 drug, due to its abuse potential. Focalin contains the active ingredient Dexmethylphenidate, it is most commonly used to treat ADHD. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, nervousness and weight loss. Is there anything else I can help with?

My doctor gave me an expired free trial card with the prescription. I've been on Adderall and I don't like the way I feel on it. I haven't tried Vyvanse yet but I'd like to. I'm sure everyone here knows how expensive it is. I called the doctor's office and they said they'd try and get me a current card but they didn't. I called the number on the card and was on hold forever and I've been searching online. Thanks for any information. ## Hello, Maggie! How are you? I'm sorry, but several people have asked about this recently and I haven't been able to find a current offer for it. Have you tried calling the company, again? ## Yes, I have tried calling and was on hold for 30 minutes before I hung up. Thank you for the response. ## go to Shirecares...

For months I have been prescribed monthly d-amphetamine 10mg twice daily for a month, I'll use it all and then leave myself a week or two without it until I can pick up my new script. Can a hair follicle test tell that I haven't been taking it correctly? Or will it be fine since I'm still only taking the prescribed amount per month?

I took 2 10mg Adderall just over a month ago and have both a urine and hair drug test coming up next week for a pre-employment drug screen. I think I'm pretty clear on the urine but kinda worried on the Hair test. What are my chances of a one-time user passing with no worries? ## A hair drug test is meant to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. That small amount of adderall most likely will not show up in a hair drug test, your chances are good to pass a hair follicle drug screen. ## Did you pass?

I failed a urine test at my pain management Dr for methamphetamine which I do not use. The result was 517 NG/ML on the first test so I demanded a second test that came back 193 NG/ML. Nobody ever asked what medications I am taking and the lab report states no prescribed medications listed. I am taking Reglan 5mg 30 minutes before a meal and Lortab 10mg, Oxycodone 30mg, Xanax 1mg, Ambien 10mg and occasionally Soma 350mg. I have also taken Amoxicillin 500mg for a tooth ache. I have had a route-n y gastric bypass with 85% of my stomach detached. Can any of this cause me to fail my urine test twice. The Dr. says that he will continue to treat me because of the meds I'm on but the receptionist refuses to make me an appointment and humiliated me infront of a room full of people and refuse...

I absolutely love the comedown almost as much as the initial effects. No matter how much in overall quantity I take, whether through the day/night or a at once. I just lay, sit, or do things when the comedown hits, and end up staring at anything and everything unintentionally. And if I don't try to focus, an excessive euphoria sinks in and shifts my view, almost as if on a trip of some sort, but I can shut it off and turn it on in a snap. People that complain about the Adderall comedown are a little on the closed-minded side of you ask me. The more you focus on hating/not wanting to come down, the more negative your body takes the reaction, not saying there aren't cases where it genuinely sucks for some people. But even on just 20mg, which doesn't make me very euphoric, the ...

Bought what I thought was adderall in Belize but I cannot find it. Help!!! Ap or de on one side and an unidentified imprint on the other. ## Hi Adam, I'm a little confused as to how the imprint could be "Ap" or "de", since a capitol "A" doesn't resemble a lowercase "e" or vise versa (unlike a "d" or "p" which are easily flipped). I've tried looking up different variations of those letters and haven't found any specific details worth mentioning. However if you know the name of the store you bought it from or even the alleged manufacturer who's name should be on the package, I can dissect more information from there that may be helpful for verifying the legitimacy of this pill. Also, how would you describe the "weird ...

I am scheduled for abdominal laparoscopic surgery at 10 am tomorrow. I was stressed about not having everything done around my house and took 2 30mg Adderall XR that I had around the house but no longer am prescribed. I'm scared to tell the doc. But will this mess with my surgery or anesthesia? ## Hello, Ariana! How are you? Yes, please inform your doctor, it is better than risking your life. Some medications may affect the amount of anesthesia that you need, or it may necessitate a delay in surgery. The FDA lists this medication as being a stimulant that is most commonly used to treat ADHD and narcolepsy. It carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

I had osteomyelitis a few years back. Was on methadone & vicodin until I got pregnant with my son. Got switched to suboxone and have been on it since. I've recently been diagnosed with ADHD, I'm 32 & it explains so much now. Anyway, I need to find a Dr who will be OK with writing me for both meds. Or 2 separate drs who will still be OK with me being on the meds ## Hello, Lilmama3! How are you? I'm so glad that you finally got the correct diagnosis. Yes, you'll need to see different specialists for such medications, so you'll need to see a psychiatrist to have Adderall, or another medication prescribed for the ADHD. You will most likely need to clear it with your Suboxone doctor, though, since these medications are also controlled substances. Do you currently ...
