Adderall XR: Increase dosage?
I’m currently on
Adderall
XR
15 mg which is working better than the other drugs I’ve tried. I’m still having issues with focus, decision making, knowing what the steps are in a project and memory. Here’s an example: I started my dog on a new food. Poured the food into container, threw out bag.

Guanfacine ER 1 mg reviews
He was taking
Adderall
XR
but it wasn’t the right fit for my son. He is now 10 and we are starting with medication again along with therapy to help. My question is; can anyone share their child’s experience with me on this specific type of medication?

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.

Changing meds: Strattera to Wellbutrin
(The first medication that I was put on was
Adderall
XR
, at various dosages over about a 6 month period. The best it did to treat my ADHD was half of what atomoxetine does for me.) The biggest struggles that I still have with my ADHD are all related to motivation and execution.

I am not really sure if the current medicine is right for him. Need advice~
The reason we took a break during the summer from
Adderall
XR
was due to our traveling abroad and his medication not being allowed in some countries.

Adhd meds and stomach issues
She had been taking
Adderall
(not
XR
) for a couple years and it was successful for her. She went off the Adderall so I am looking to find out if there are any other ADHD meds that you have tried that have not caused stomach pain.

What dose of adderall is your child on?
My son is 7 years old and up to 15mg of
Adderall
XR
. I don’t see it working much anymore and the next increase will be 20mg. If your kid is around the same age and on Adderall, please share their milligram/dosing. Or did your kid not have the best results on it and switch to another stimulant?

My meds aren't enough
My friend has
adderall
xr
like me but then ALSO some "boosters" ... an ir for as needed. A separate script. I kind of want that too and think I legit need it but I hate talking to my psychiatrist about the adhd meds. I'm also down for some natural tips. I just can't keep up with life.

Adderall XR 20mg
So he recommended
Adderall
XR
20mg. Today was my first day. I woke up, had some coffee and took my pill with a smoothie. Within an hour I could feel the effects and a bit nauseous. About an hour later I was starving.

adderall
/Vyvanse for a little over a year (switched from former to latter due to the shortage) and it did wonders for my overall ability to get things done and generally silencing voices in my head.

Trouble finding a prescriber
Hello, I am 47 yo and a mother. I was diagnosed while in college and have been taking Adderall ever since. Over the years my dosage has increased. My last doctor left the practice and I am having a hard time finding a doctor who will prescribe my dosage. 30mg 3 x/day. I understand this is high, but

Med changes
I have had depression since I was little and I am 50 now. I still see a dr every couple of months for it and a therapist. My dr just changed me from focaline to Adderall and I am feeling so much worse. I don't want to get out of bed. I called for help the other night and they referred me to additional

How do you help your ADHD child who has no filter?
My son has ADHD combined type and is nearly 8. He’s on Adderall. The lack of a filter has always existed but as a littler kid/toddler things were more easily overlooked as cute or silly. Now his friends are starting to make confused faces when he brings up completely random information which can sometimes

Adderall
I have been taking 10mg of Adderall for almost a year. I was just drug tested twice and my Adderall didn't show up in my urine sample. Now the Dr. thinks that I'm not taking them and is probably going to stop my prescription. Has this happened to anyone else and why isn't the medication testing positive

Alternatives to Vyvance?
He has successfully taken
Adderall
XR
(various doses from 3rd grade to 11th) then was switched to the max dose of Vyvanse. I know there is a drug shortage but has anyone else had this issue? The message he got is that there really isn’t a great alternative.

Adderall vs other meds for Adult ADHD
I’m 55, diagnosed almost a year ago. Was given Adderall. At even half a pill a day I get horrible GERD / heartburn symptoms after 2 days on this. Tremendous lack of appetite and I’m already thin. Anyone else experience this? Are other meds different?

Anyone know a free online or in person support group?
I have been diagnosed with mixed type ADHD a year ago. At first it was a relief, but now I’m kinda frustrated. Therapy is very expensive. Adderall makes me feel very anxious. I’d love to join a support group that meets on zoom. Are there such things out there?
