well i just found the answer to my question. youre supposed to wait 4 to 5 halflives after stopping a contraindicated med before starting Emsam. So i believe thats about 56 hours in all for Adderall.
And yes, on every site ive read about Emsam, it says there are no Diet Restrictions for the 6mg dose of Emsam. and ive read that the Diet Restrictions for the higher doses are just in case. that its basically to be cautious. It seems Some working in Psychiatry are being over cautious. i just dont like them telling me im wrong, when its them who are wrong. One of the Psych Nurses even told me i would have to take a 2 week class on the Diet Restrictions before i can be prescribed Emsam.
its just getting so irritating trying to find the help i need. i spent the past 2 months running back and forth to a hospital 200 miles away as part of the process of making sure im a candidate for Vagus Nerve Stimulation, and then on the day before i was to have the surgery, the surgeon called to let me know Medicare denied coverage.
its as if the closer i get to running out of treatment options, the less doctors are willing to help me with the options i do have.
