> > oops! I put the decimals in the wrong place - what I meant was 5mg and 2.5mg doses. Sorry. While I'm hear I might as well add that when I woke up today my resting heart rate was still @103bpm!! Isn't that too high? I'm 25 and I weigh about 180!
Yes, that HR does sound quite high. Mine went up too while I was on it, but not *that* much! I wouldn't take the Inderal. Did you tell your doctor about the HR elevation? Also, other meds you may be taking could be contributing. If you are swilling coffee all day that will do it too. You mentioned taking 750mg/day of Depakote and I think some Klonopin(?). Do you take that spread out all day? You might ask your doctor about taking it all at bedtime to get you to sleep, and then just take the Adderall during the day. Who knows, maybe if you got some better sleep the HR thing might back off some.
