  • i have a question when i was younger and diagnosed with adhd they put me on riddelin it didnt work then they put me on cylert and it worked for a while then they took it off the market i heard then i was perscribed valproic acid it worked until the dosage no longer worked so i just stoped taking it alltogther would adderall xr be a better fit for me since the valproic acid stopped working or should i try and go back to it

  • drugs are awesome!!

  • used to treat ADD. not ADDerall, add doesnt excist any more but back then when it did, no adhd kid would get this, they got methylphenidate (ritalin)

  • 35 mg's a day for two years now. I'm now extremely organized and went from having about a C+ average to a straight 4.0. My life got so much better from the very start of this drug. Thanks Shire, Adderall's great. You're the best.

    Although it's generic now, so credit goes to TEVA. IC Amphetamine Salts 35 mg capsule. (Substitute for Adderall XR)

  • adderall is inferior to dexadrine.  d-amphetamine works best in my opinion and I have no Idea why they include l-amphetamine in adderall. mabe to discourage abuse....good luck on that one.

  • I took a 25mg dosage from a friend to see if It would make me hyper or the opposite. I took it at school, around lunch time. After lunch I felt so calm and in control that I did very well in my next few classes. I think I really need a prescription, who should I consult? Also I am 15 and cannot myself see a doctor and would need to convince my parents.

  • Hahah all us 20mg-ers are like heyyyy! you forgot us! :)

  • He didn't mention the 20mg!!!!!!! why did he skip to mention it?

  • He's wrong about the different strengths! I take 20 mg xr.

  • I know, forgot to say that strength.

  • i f*cking hate reading but a 30mg XR had me reading 150 pgs straight. thanks adderall!!

  • adderall is key for getting homework done!

  • its the only way i can get my work done

  • It comes in 6 strengths right? Why did he fail to mention 20mg? He skipped it, right?

  • I know, forgot to say that strength.

  • ARE YOU IN THERE AFTER HOURS?

  • everything was right but the dosages, there is also a 20 mg xr tablet

  • I know, forgot to say that strength.

  • You might wanna take this with food cause you wont eat for a while, depending on the dosage. I absolutely love this drug when im on it, but the comedown can be an absolute nightmare.

  • im 12 when i take it im always out of breath easly is that a side effect?

  • If that happens i dont think you should take it....

  • it shouldn't be, but ask your doctor to have your lung efficiency measured - it's a simple test where you blow air into a tube which measures the volume of oxygen

  • my parents won't let me get adderall, but i actually have ADHD....the shit im on now (straterra) aint doing shiitt..

  • I took adderall once it was a 25mg I think, but I didnt sleep for about 40 hours, and I felt terrible for about two days afterword. Im 5"8 and about 170 lbs. whats wrong with me?

  • You may just be sensitive to the effects. For me it lasts about 12 hours, and the only side effect it has on me is loss of appetite.

  • if you don't regularly take adderall than 25mg is way too much for you.

    try a smaller dosage around 10-15mg and don't take it late in the day

  • ya? then why are the ones labled "40mg"

  • ADHD isn't a real illness.

  • this drug is only a stimulant it is actually an amphetamine..it doesnt inhibu=it reabsorption of anything and doesnt affect concentration of anything its just a cns stimulant amphetamine type

  • Uh, amphetamine IS an MAO inhibitor, and the different amphetamine salts in Adderral also increase dopamine and norepinphrine. CNS stimulants do things like that. How do you think they achieve their stimulant effects? Adderall is FOUR different amphetamines in equal mixture (yipes.)

  • I took adderal before and it really helped me with being able to focus in lectures, will this new vyvanse be as effective?

  • Couple questions:

    1. What's the dosage limit that constitutes an overdose?

    2. Are there any severe or fatal effects of an overdose?

  • I enjoy taking adderall because not only does it relax me, it helps me be happy. I have severe depression and Adult ADD so this is like killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Thank you for explaining it Dr. Conner

    ps, ur hot

  • adderal made me negative

  • i take 20mg and i love it!

  • i take the 30mg and i dont have adhd i just have add and that "may cause loss of sleep" is the biggest understatement ever

    first one= 48 hours, no sleep for me

    but i felt great haha

  • yea man u buzz for hours and no sleep witch means more gaming!

  • Well, ive started to take it last week, and honeslty i dont feel depreded or bummed out anymore, i get alot more work done at work (im 20 and i have adult ADHD). i guess anoter good side efect is its cut my urge to smoke in freaking half, and it it wouldent hurt me not to eat so mutch since im a little over weight. ill see how i feel as my Rx is up than i go back to the doc next month

  • anyone is a fucking idiot to think that it kills you emotions. yeah it will if you let it. and if you let it control you then it will. simple as that. open your eyes..

  • Fuck you and your adderall. The shit is crap. It's legal speed. Over time it will rob u of your soul I agree rench. Pharmacist=drug dealer

  • Thanks mom, I'll be home for supper tonight.

  • Adderall kills your emotions, making you unable to feel like you ised to, and makes you about as spontaneous as a rock.

    The american government wants all their people to take adderall so that they become brain dead workers, who will never rise up and question the system.

    Please open your eyes.

  • Darn, you're on to us.

    You should apply for Surgeon General.

  • My main purpose of taking adderall is to sit around with my bandmate to discuss politics, philosophy, religion, and make music. Oh...how emotionless we are....

  • wow, exactly what im saying. I can talk for HOURS about anything with adderall, and i enjoy all of it. Emotionless my ass dude.

  • yeah exactly, you get into subjects really deeply

  • same here man

  • WHOA. you are so totally RIGHT! together with the UFOs and bigfoot, the government will KILL US ALL.

  • Ah...you forgot 20mg... You went from 15 to 25, or my adderall xr isn't working...

  • Yea I know, the first comment mentions that.

  • i get adderall crashes like 4 hours after i take my 1st 10mg in the morning....is it alright to take another 10mg capsule after the 1st one wears off?

    like, is it alright to space out 30mg of adderall throught the day in 10mg capsules?

  • You could do that but I would check with your doctor first just to make sure.

  • dude, just take the extended release.....

  • Never switch up dosage without speaking to your Dr. As someone else mentioned, there is XR, which is the subject of this video. It's a one a day extended release.

  • and as well for it to be justifyed

  • mabe this was just me but the past 8 months i was on amphetamine, it was the worst year of my life, and ive done so much research i probably know as much as you about amphetamines, methylphenidate was by far the worste, but i got alot of depression from vyvanse, i was on that for 6 months, and i finaly quit, and ive felt the best i ever have in.... as long as i can remember, i would highly sugjest against, phsyco stimulents, and to think that so maney kids are addicted to meds

  • Not to sound like a crutch, but everybody is different. There are people like myself whose condition benefits from taking medication. Just as I'm sure there are some who are on it, that may not need it. That is why you should be getting this Rx through a professional (a Psychiatrist, as in MD). Most reputable Drs don't write a script unless they truly believe it is best for the patient. It goes without saying that no Class II medication should be taken if it isn't needed by the patient.

  • Dog gonnit, I did forget the 20mg. Well everyone, it comes in a 20mg dose also, sorry about that.

  • haha no problem

  • You are still awesome. Would love to have a pharmacist like you to counsel the patients that come in our pharmacy

  • Wow, thank you. You want to write the intro for my next book? :)

  • Haha, well., maybe. Depends on how I'm feling. :)

  • I've tried this before...I was on it for 6 months...I began to gain a tolerance for it...so my doctor switched me to vyvanse. The vyvanse is really working on my ADHD and not supressing my appetite!

  • when you were saying the sizes you only said 5 amounts not 6. you missed 20mg
