I am 49 years old and Focalin 5mg gives me energy. Is it addictive?

Has it been prescribed by your doctor?

Focalin contains the active ingredient Dexmethylphenidate, which is a stimulant used to treat conditions such as ADHD and narcolepsy, so yes, it can be addictive and also carries other risks.
