Hi. My name is Jasmine Laney I am 16 years old and has been taking adderall XR for over a year now. It really does matter the age of your child. There are many affects to this medication: loss of appetite, loss of hair, rapid weight loss,dizziness, sleeplessness, blurred vision, cotton mouth(drink lots of water during the day), the good affects are that you will concentrate more, get done with an activity with out any complications, more relaxed, less frustrated when you cant get something done,and really easier to talk to and to get along with. Trust me yourchild is safe as long as you watch how many she takes. YOU ONLY TAKE ONE A DAY!!! No more than one cause that could be fatal. Thank you for your time. Jasmine Laney (TX)

Adderall is not good for children. It's a drug that teens and adults abuse. If you google it, you can read all the facts of what it does to your body. The main ingredient in Adderall XR is Amphetamine. That is also what is in all of the diet pills, meth, and many other dangerous drugs. Adderall XR is sold at college campuses by students with prescriptions, as well as on the streets. Try something less addictive with less bad side affects such as Strattera. I would honestly just google Adderall XR and see what pops up. It is one of the most abused prescription meds. I do not think any child should take it.
