I've been using Methamphetamine and Marijuana for about a month and a half. In 5 days I'm getting a mouth swab. will I pass? And what can I use to cleanse my system? ## I've been on antibiotics for 3 days and drinking lemon water and I have a saliva test on tomorrow and rinsing my mouth with peroxide every 2 hours will it help me pass? ## Honestly, I would not recommend you combine these two substances

I have taken Ritalin for years for Narcolepsy. I just got a bottle of yellow pills with K 102 on them. Does anyone else take this brand? They are making me weak, extremely tired and I feel awful. I have never had or seen this brand before. Normally I take Teva. I'm wondering if it's this brand that is making me feel this way? ## These tablets are manufactured by KVK Tech and those can be normal side effects of this medication, according to FDA reports. You may also experience dizziness, headache, irritability, and insomnia. NDC code: 10702-0102 How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? It is very odd for this medication to cause you to feel tired, since it usually causes the opposite as a side effect. Are you on any other medications? ## I feel THE EXACT SAME WAY! I usu...

I used to take an ADD drug years ago and it helped but could not keep a job and lost my insurance. I want to get back on the meds but after 12 years don't have medical records to prove I was on them and they might think I am just someone needing drugs. Does anyone know of a Dr in the Columbus Ohio area?

I've been taking adderall on and off since 2009 for college. However I started noticing the bad come downs so my doctor switched me to vyvanse 50mg. That didn't work out too well. The dose turned out to be too high for me, causing me to be really anxious, over analyzing everything, and getting nothing done. I switched to 30mg vyvanse and I've been taking that on and off for a few years. Some days I think to myself, "thank god for this stuff". And then there are other days where I regret taking it- very weird. For example today I took one capsule for the first time in a few weeks. I felt great this morning, all my worries went away about starting this new job of mine, I felt focused and got things done. Then after the first two hours or so I got very anxious and on ed...

does anyone know if there is any side-effects from takeing adderall&effexor together.I.E. breaking out or slowed infection response? ## If you had these filled at the same pharmacy, their computer automatically checks for any dangerous interactions and would have alerted them immediately, that is why is always so important to use the same pharmacy for all of your medications. ## My sister is perscribed to Effexor and Adderall and she has not had any problems and its been years now ## i thought that there was an indication for dexedrine and effexor but I was mistaken. anywho, i am still ok - i take both.

I have taken 20mg of adderall and would now like to take a 37mg phentermine. Is this ok? ## It generally isn't advisable, due to the fact that they are both stimulants, so combining them can result in elevated blood pressure and heart rate, which may put you at risk of a heart attach or stroke. ## 20 mg of adderall should give you intense effects if you are not a daily prescription user. If you are trying to increase the stimulant effect I would suggest against the phentermine and trying taking tums or some form of bicarbonate 30-60 mins prior to adderall to increase absorption. Also, a diet high in acidity (especially soda) will greatly decrease absorption of the drug. Try eating more alkaline foods (carrots, beets, bread). This will allow you to intake a much higher percentage of ...

I am relatively new to the Adderall treatment process. This is my 3rd month trying to find the right dosage. Initially, my Dr put me on 20mg XR but I couldn't really tell that I took anything. We then moved to 20mg IR twice-day. CVS gave me (20mg Amphetamine Salts by Sandoz). We made some progress with this move but still didn't get me to where I wanted to be. Now, I'm on 30mg IR twice-day but CVS gave me (Dextroamp-Amphetamin by Alvogen). Yes, the Rx is spelled just like that. Makes me wonder what they really gave me?? Also, I can't find a lot of information on this particular Rx from the manufacturer. I don't think it's equivalent to the Sandoz version but in my opinion, CVS should be giving me meds from the same manufacturer to get an accurate baseline on whet...

Has anyone tried Adderall Xr generics by Par pharmaceuticals? Has it been effective? ## To be honest I only take teva 30mg instant release adderalls because I take em w Xanax 2mg and they even each other out. Talk to ur dr. XR sucks. ## Why did you say XR sucks? Thank you. ## XRs are very different than IRs. I don’t remember why but your doctor can explain. I only use teva IRs. Stay away from anything made by Aurobindo. They’re fake I think. They feel like no doze and give me massive headaches. ## Yes, they are very different. The XR’s (extended release) were a 12 hour pill. Now they are considered a 24 hour pill. Who, when, how & why they call it a 24 hour pill is absurd! None of this medication lasts for 24 hours. The maximum I have ever gotten from a 30 mg XR wa...

Medication is taken mostly for ad ## Hi Sandy, Proper dosing instructions are usually best discussed with your doctor since most dosages and timing tend to be very patient specific, depending on what exactly you might be taking each medication for and the severity of your condition. However, in my opinion, the best way to find out when you should take a medication that has to be administered 3 times daily is to simply determine how many times 3 goes into 24 hours (for example: 3 x 8 = 24...so you would essentially take you...

I found a white round pill (not scored) with an imprint of "93" on one side and blank on the other side. I can't figure out what it is. Can anyone help? ## This tablet is manufactured by Tris Pharma and they list it as containing 20mgs of Dexmethylphenidate, which is a generic for Focalin, which is commonly used to treat ADHD and narcolepsy. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and insomnia. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Everything described correctly except it is not the correct strength. That is a10 mg.

I was scouting around for generic adderall from CorePharma , when i called Meijer pharmacy they said they carry Aurobindo. I've never heard of this pharm company before. Anybody taken adderall from Aurobindo? I alternate generic adderall from teva then corepharma.

I've had adhd since childhood and it has gotten increasingly worse. I've tried EVERYTHING and found that only these two medications really work. My doctor dropped me due to something regarding Obamacare and I NEED to have my prescriptions refilled! These drugs have literally brought my life back to normal! Please tell me of a doctor who understands the severity of the condition and will prescribe the right medications somewhere in Southwest Florida. ## Obamacare has to do with getting medical coverage, not whether or not your doctor treats you. And as to getting the medications that work for you, you'll need to see a new doctor and make sure that they get a full copy of your medical records. Once they can see what has and hasn't worked for you, as documented by fellow ph...

I went to the hospital for really bad pains and felt like I was having back labor, and they did some test and one was a drug test and said everything was fine but told me that I tested positive for methamphetamine. I do not do methamphetamine at all and they said that nos will not do that and they would not take another test of any sort to fix this, and they tell me that I can not get it taken off my record.

Many pharmacies use whatever companies products are currently available to to dispense. Shire's name brand products are often covered under all but a few insurance companies. It is the "most effective" in Shire's opinion. Teva, a Israeli pharmaceutical firm, as well as others make generic off shoots of mixed amphetamine salts cocombinations. They may be in short supply in areas. Small independent pharmacies are not allotted as many of these CII stimulates. Paying cash is preferred by pharmacies if generic substitutions are not marked or not in stock. One takes what one can afford or even find. My MD always issues me three different but similar Rx's and DOES NOT label them "NOT TO BE ISSUED A MONTH APART." A issuance of a Rx of a CII like generic Adderal's...
