Can I take another stimulant for ADHD?
I was on
Adderall
for at least 10 years. About a year ago, my MD noticed some twitching around my mouth. She took me off
Adderall
so that my twitching did not progress to TD. Does that mean I can never take a stimulant med for ADHD or just that I cannot take
Adderall
?

ADHD and pain medication
I am on
Adderall
but need a pain medication from my chronic pain that doesn't interact with
Adderall
or my narcolepsy. In other words, I don't want a pain medicine that is too sedating.

side effects of Adderall
The dr switched him to
Adderall
this past week and my son’s behavior got worse. His teachers said he was angrier for longer periods of time and more irritable. Then on day 7 he said he was hearing voices, so I got worried and stopped the
Adderall
.

Side Effects of Adderall & Recommendations
I have been on
Adderall
10mg for about 30 days now. It has helped with attention but I feel like I could use a little more focus. I tried 20 mg of
Adderall
but my heart rate increased. I've also noticed I feel a little more agitated and have some acne on my shoulders as I did in high school.

Adderall and night waking
We recently switched my son from Focalin to
Adderall
. This is the first time switching from methylphenidate to amphetamine for him. He has always been a pretty good sleeper. Since starting the
Adderall
he can fall asleep fine but has each night woken at midnight and again around 4am.

Side effects of Adderall XR
Has anyone else developed a sore throat or cough on
Adderall
XR? If so does regular
Adderall
have the same effect. I’ve recently (about 4-5 months ago) started ADHD meds after being off for about 8 years.

adderall

First dose Strattera, blah, tired
Adderall
made me a wound up nutcase with huge anxiety. It started great, lots of energy to do the things I needed to. Then therapy made me focus on the things that made me anxious. Spiraled out of control due to the stimulant effects. Made me entirely useless.

I have tried Ritalin,
Adderall
and Strattera. Ritalin gave me bad mood swings,
Adderall
made my heart race and increase irritation and Stattera made me super sleepy. I am very sensitive to medication and so my doctor opted to try me on this new non-stimulant.

ADHD Medications don’t mix well
I find caffeine helps with ADHD but why do I get such a nasty feeling with things like
Adderall
and even non-stimulants like Wellbutrin? Any natural supplements work better?

ADHD symptoms returned after TBI
Even after the worst symptoms began to subside, I could feel the stimulant effect of
Adderall
, but it was useless for focus. I’m in the ninth week of recovery and I’d say meds are working about 50%.

The brick wall
Adderall
has been a big help to me get through the day. But it's still a daily struggle. Is this brick wall just because of ADHD? Or some childhood trauma? Or laziness? Or am I just making this all up? Should I be taking my meds? Should I not be taking my meds?

ADHD Mom Concerned With Asd
Even recently switching to
adderall
. His behavior and outbursts have not gotten better. He also has trouble sleeping at night. Most nights he’s up all throughout the night. But he still wets the bed. He also elopes when we are out. He’s tried to even leave the house without permission.
