I am currently taking 20-30mg/day of Adderall XR for my ADD/ADHD.
I don't know much about treating ADD/ADHD so I was hoping I could get some imput from those of you who have more experience with them. I have heard they work much better when taken on an empty stomach, but not much more.
I need the med simply to be able to focus & concentrate very well. Not for narcolepsy or any purpose like that.
Any impute is really appreaciated, and I especially would like to know:
(1) The best manner in which to take the meds.
(2) The med that worked best for you (and how it helped)
(3) How I can avoid tolerance.
(4) I have heard that shorter acting stimulants like Adderall & ritalin are more effective than longer acting ones like Concerta, etc. Any truth to this?
(5) Does Strattera work, and would it be good for someone with my needs in your opinion?Thank you so much!!
