D Amphetamine Salt Combo Behavioral Changes

My son recently started taking Addoral, and I'm noticing slight behavioral changes while taking 10 mg twice a day -- nothing major, just seems more pensive and mellow. While listening to techno music, he asked me to sit in our garage, look to the stars and ponder if there's life out there... I'm curious -- is this typical, and okay? What kind of behavioral changes are typical for this drug?

It can vary from person to person, but that's really what this medication is intended to do for ADHD patients….IE: mellow them out.

However, since it is bringing him down, so to speak, you'd be wise to keep an eye out for any dangerous changes, such as severe depression and suicidal ideation. It isn't typical with this medication, but some slight risk is always there and if you know to watch for it, you can get him help, if needed.

Are there any other questions or concerns?

Thanks Verwon for your reply. I've since decided to keep him at half the prescribed dosage -- one 10 mg per day -- and he seems to be okay. He seems to be having more intense angry outbursts than before (and fine afterward), but hard to tell if it's Adderall or just his age.

You need to speak to his dr about this. The thing with the music, etc may be because he is calm enough to be able to do this. It is difficult to explain how these types of meds work for someone with ADHD. But, they are suppose to calm you if you have ADHD. And his intense anger outbursts could be helped by the extra Adderall. Maybe you could ask his dr about trying him on 15 mgs a day instead of 20, or a combination of extended release and immediate release Adderall.
