Adderall Forums (Page 27)

Been taking adderall 20mg 4x a day since 1997 and it still works perfect for me. My doctor retired and the replacement immediately tried to cut my dosage down to 1 20mg tab a day. After 20 yrs of taking 80mgs a day I am failing miserably at work, on the brink of being fired. I need to know any doctors in the dfw area that will prescribe 80mgs and quick. I even called cathal grant and they told me he wouldn't even do 80mgs. I know there are people who take as much if not more than I do so what doctors are you using? Please help.

Since high school I have suffered from anxiety and some depression. I am 25 now. My anxiety is triggered by most social interactions. In high school I would hide in the bathroom because i couldn't face going to class or go to the library during lunch sometimes so I wouldn't have to interact socially. I dropped out of college because my anxiety kept me from going to class and giving presentations or just because I was afraid to be in class with so many strangers. I can't get a job because I feel an overwhelming panic at going to interviews or starting new working with people I don't know. I have no motivation to do anything during the day. I can't focus on tasks im supposed to do and easily get overwhelmed by large projects. I have been put on various anti anxiety med...

Would like to know what color the beads inside the capsule look like? ## @Nikki, Just curious, why is the color of the beads so important if you're obtaining your Adderall legally with a valid prescription? If you have to question the bead color in order to determine if it's real then I think you should probably throw it away. I don't know about the 25mg bead color, but the 20mg generic amphetamine + detroamphetamine extended release blue capsule from Actavis contains white beads. I've also heard about Adderall capsules containing peach colored beads as well as combinations of orange and white together. If you have one why not open it up to find out?

Got prescription filled at a CVS and I was given the Actavis blue capsule 3060 (previously i had Teva and before I had the brand). The Actavis medicine was not only inefficient but It actually made me sick... I got a day-long irritating and unpleasant motion sickness like feeling. At least I know that this only happens once, next time sure I will ask. ## Hello, Soyla! How are you? What do you mean by saying that it was inefficient? This is a time released formulation, so you shouldn't feel some definitive effect of it all at once. ## It does not work because the active ingredient in the Activis brand genetic doesn't have the same active ingredient as Adderal. It's a brand new company in this game. Says so on both their website and the FDAs.

My 5yr old was started on dextroamp amphet 5 mg 4days ago. Since he is a lot calmer and focused at school (he was very hyper and unfocused b4 which caused problems) which is good but he doesn't seem as happy as he use to be and seems to have lost a spark to him. Im calling the dr tomarrow but wanted to see if this is common since I haven't seen anything in the sideeffects on this. ## Well, you basically are adding a foreign chemical to the body to try to correct unwanted behavior, so such changes can occur. There are many parents that notice such things when their children take these types of medications, because it's going to affect them all the time, not just while they're at school.

I need a doctor who will give me adderall for my adhd.My other doctor retired .I live about 50 miles from Knoxville Tennessee ## You will need to see a psychistrist. Some family dr and internal medicine drs prescribe ADHD meds, but they ususally won't prescribe them to new patients. You will also need a copy of your medical records from your dr that retired. If you weren't tested for ADHD, a new dr may want you to be tested before they treat you.

I have not opened it up but I have taken the brand-name reddish Adderall XR 20mg for quite awhile. This is probably a reverse placebo effect, but the blue one seem less strong oe less smoothe. Still, they work just fine. ## Hi Annie, The 20mg blue pill you're describing marked "R 3060" happens to be manufactured by Actavis Elizabeth LLC. So if your other pill was made by a different company, it's likely that they contained a different set of inactive ingredients (binders/fillers). From what I understand many of these substances are identified as toxins by our bodies, and can even have a significant impact on the drug's overall potency and effectiveness. And because this particular pill by Actavis is in generic form, the FDA allows it to contain up to 20% more or less...

I was diagnosed by two different physciatrists with severe ADD. I lose thing, I can't rememer dates, appointments, times, names. I am thinking maybe long acting Ritalin would help me more. I am 54 and it is like I am losing my job skills, I have had MRI's of the brain which are normal. I told the nurse if this is Alzhiemers, I am going to kill myself. Can anyone give me any feedback? ## I have the same exact thing you are talking about. It is not alzheimers. I am 56 and it is severe ADD. I also Have bipolar. I am also taking adderall 30 mg. I just started it. I just lost my job because they said I can't remember things. I have had several memory tests. ## Hi, I'm 64 years old and only started taking adderal 2 years ago. If I don't take it I could sleep 20 day and fee...

I'm also new to Farmington and need to find a doctor to refill my adderall. Could someone please help me? Thank you !!!' ## Hello, Rhodes76! How are you? Due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, you'll need to see a specialist, if you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis. PCPs can no longer prescribe them. The best thing to do would be to set yourself up with a new PCP and then have them refer you to someone. That would most likely be the fastest and easiest way to get the help you need. Can anyone recommend a good doctor in that area? This mediation carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, irritability and anorexia. ## This is not true! Any MD DO or even physician...

Do they always come in the orange see through capsules? That's how I receive mine from my doctor. Or do they sometimes come in other colors in regular pill form? Am curious to know if that is how you determine if they are legit. ## Hello, Becca! How are you? ## Hello, Yalls! How are you? The way to tell if they're legitimate would be by the markings on them. Those can be used to research and see what the given capsules contain. However, the XR formulations are all only available as capsules, not tablets, but the color and markings can vary from one manufacturer to another. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, irritability, weight loss, insomnia and anorexia. What are the markings on the ...

XR amphetamine capsule-- what happens if capsule is opened and beads chewed: immediate release? ## Yes and it could result in someone getting too much of the medication at once, which may cause overdose. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, insomnia and weight loss. Is there anything else I can help with?

my doctor put me on 30 milligrams of adderall a day and its giving me heartburn is that normal ## HI, Carrot! Sorry about the heartburn, I know that can be very miserable. And yes, virtually any medication can cause this, many of them increase the production of stomach acid. It's just something that happens when you're adding a chemical to the body to resolve a problem. Learn more Adderall details here. Have you discussed it with your doctor? There's a good chance that you can take an antacid to help resolve the issue. ## There is some controversy over whether heartburn is caused by too much, or too little, stomach acid. It could be a sensation associated with both cases, too. If you want to evaluate this yourself, try taking a tablespoon of apple cider or balsamic vinegar a...

In November, My dr. gave me two prescriptions for adderall. One for December, and one for January. My January one is dated the 15th, but I am going out of the country on the 13th. Would CVS be able to fill my prescription 3 days early? Otherwise, I would run out while in Mexico. I have been on the medication for over a year and take it as directed. ## Hi Matt, I just came across your message and it's now past January 15th. How did everything turn out with the early refill? Just for future reference, I think it may be best to call CVS directly and ask them about their policy for early refills. One would assume that it should be fine, considering your unique circumstances. However, if they ended up giving you any hassle over it, you could always contact your doctor to have him rewrite...

From india, supposed to be adderall, round white with no imprints. Taste test was bitter slight burn to tounge with a numbing effect, im guessing not adderall. ## @heffay, From what I understand, many of the pharmaceutical drugs coming from India are thought to be counterfeit. So you can never be too sure of what you have unless you're getting each pill analyzed by a lab. These Indian companies tend to list their products on illegal websites to scam people who think they can get around obtaining a valid RX. But in all honestly, the best way to protect yourself against counterfeits is go see your doctor for a prescription and having it filled at a local pharmacy. Outside of that, anything else could be laced with poison for all we know... Better safe than sorry in my opinion. I'd...

Do Adderall And Adipex (or The Generic Phentermine) Show Up The Same On A Drug Test? ## i am prescribed adipex, but i took and adderall yesterday. Today i have to take a drug test. Will it just show up as amphetemine or am i in trouble? ## Can you please let me know how your test went? Im curious in if they show as the same thing as well. Because I will take an Adderall every now and then to get things done and if I get a random test done I was hoping I could use the excuse that I have an old phentermine prescription.

Spilled drink on adderall. Are they still good? ## Lol sorry that's funny.. Yes they would still be good.. ## They won't go bad, per se, but they may not be as effective, if they got wet enough for some of the tablet to dissolve. This doesn't apply to time released medications, getting them wet could defeat the time release and cause you too get too much of the medication at once, which may result in overdose.
