Hello there, i apprietiate all of everyones imput. Yes, i looked over my stimulant/benzo combonation. There is a reason why i take the klonopin. I do have anxiety problems, but since the add medication adderall, worked very very well for me, and if i just take it "alone", i will have some anixety. So it take a low dose of klonopin 5mg. But, now i now a few things, i may be doing wrong. Dosing Klonopin to close together, like taking .5mg every 5 hrs, is just going to overlap the first dose, so i make sure there are at least 8hrs apart.
ALso, i read baking soda ( which is an alkaline agent) INCREASES absorption of amphetamines. Acidic agents decreases such.
And i just read a threat that DXM helps tolerance to amphetamines. I believe the thread was Dextromethorphine and Dexadrine a few days back.
So i take again:
Adderall 30mg 2x daily
Klonopin 2x daily (.5mg .5gm)
Lexapro 10mgNow I must admit i took an extra dose of Adderall 30mg because the doses wear off so fast, like 4 hrs, so i had to take the 3rd dose. I may ask my doctor to up it to 3x daily. I cant , i repeat take adderall xr, because my insurance wont pay for that one.
If i lost anyone, my reason for this post is asking anyone about increasing amphetamine(adderall) potentiation and Prolong effects. So far, i got 3 alternatives:
1. lower or eliminate benzo dose. (have to take at least a small dose)
2. Take a little baking soda with amphetamines
3. Take DXM with Amphetamines.When i first started adderall 30mg, i could feel it working great, i was up doing things for 8hrs, now i barely feel it. Im starting to lay around , and i cant take more or ill short myself.
thank you
