Aderall

I would like to know how much is too much when it comes to overdosing on the prescription drug, Aderall.  Me and my friend have just had the time of our lives, due to the 5 pills of Aderall. It was great. We stayed up all night and talked. What can happen when taking this amount of Aderall. Each pill contains 30mg

I am a college student at a pretty prestigious school.  I never heard of aderall before I started college.  It seems that above every other drug, aderall is the most in demand for students that "have to" have it to study.  It has become very essential and addicting to a lot of people that arent prescribed it more than to those who do.  It seems to have a better effect on those not prescribed than those who are.  Those who actually take it, would rather not.

My girlfriend goes to a very demanding High School and she has lots of homework to do each night,  but she like to still have a social life so she waits till 1 or 2 everynight to go to bed.  She has to get up at 7 and so she takes adderall to stay awake.  I am very worried about her and don't want her taking adderall.  So I was wondering if you could tell me all the bad sideaffects so I could try and scare her away from it.  Nothing else seems to work.

I came to this website looking to see what Aderall did to children to seek some kind of help in making a disision to put my 10 year old add child on it. I have to say I am some what disapointed in what I read. I was hoping to find facts on the drug not a bunch of people that took it for kicks. GOOD GRIEF!

I was wondering what the long term effects of taking aderall are.  I take  about 80mg a month but never more than 20mg at a time.

Basically, if you don't have ADHD and you're taking adderal, you are taking an illegal drug -- speed.  It can give you high blood-pressure, tremors, headaches, stomach ulcers, etc etc.

Why do you take it?  It's illegal if you aren't diagnosed with ADHD.  There's no reason to screw up your body if you don't need to.... plus, for the nonADDer, it can become addictive.

You're playing with your health here .... just a small reminder! ;)

What side effects can aderall cause?  Does it expire?  I have taken it before, (though I do not have ADD) and had good experiences.  Recently, I took some that made me have a bad reaction and get a very painful headach and get very sick.  I never experienced something so horrible.  The same thing happened to my friend who was taking it for the first time.  I was wondering if I just got a "bad pill" though it looked exactly the same as any other aderall I've taken.  What could this be?  What can be done to stop it?

You really shouldn't do that. Any drug abuse is not good. Trust me from experience. Just remember, the higher the up, the harder the crash. I take 20mg 2x a day 150mg all at once can damage neural pathways in your brain from over use, and Adderall can be VERY addictive including withdrawl symtoms...becareful

Its not a good idea to use these kind of stimulants for recreational purposes, and certainly not at a dose any higher than this.  Even this dose can cause problems is you are tired, or stimulated by other things or taking any other medication.
