Adderall for a 40 year old | ADHD Information




	Adderall for a 40 year old Just starting Adderall for the first time EVER. What is the usual dosage to start with? Dr. started me on 5 mg. and I'm thinking "what?" Can that even make a dent? Dr. said I should notice a difference "pretty soon" if it was going to work. But I'm reading on these posts that it can take up to weeks. What's the real scoop? Also, should I feel like someone's hands are around my throat? (can't swallow) Dry mouth is one thing....but, come on! Please help, fellow Adderall people of the world. :) The real scoop is.... yeah, 5 mg is tiny. You should experience effects (and side effects), within the first hour, lasting 4-6 hours. Dry mouth should subside in a couple-three weeks, if you can stand it that long (yours sounds severe) So how do you know when to move up to the next mg.? Do I have to go thru a month before I decide? I've been drinking tons of water, which is helping. But I want to figure out if this med is going to help at all, and I don't want to spend forever creeping up the mg. scale. How long before I should go higher? any ideas? Good questions.... to ask your doctor! I was told, when first starting, to take one 10 mg tablet in a.m. Doctor told me that if I felt the need to, to take another in the afternoon. That's how I started. We finally settled (after about a month) on 20 mg XR in a.m., 20 mg. in p.m. Everyone's different... if you're lucky and found a good doctor, you should be able to find a med and dose that works for you. Unless you're one of the 20% that the stims don't seem to help.	Enter Your Email below to claim your Free Book
