In reply to Adderall - Another question?, posted by BackOfClass on February 1, 2004, at 15:56:58
We pause for a moment for Noa to insert a little rant about people looking for ways to alter their stimulant medications.......if this doesn't apply to the question asked, please just ignore. But I'm sure that those to whom this does apply will recognize it.......
Please take it as prescribed. That there are people engaging in Adderall and other stimulant abuse is a major problem for those of us who need the medication for appropriate medical and psychiatric care. Because people abuse adderall by crushing it and taking it improperly to get a buzz, people like me have to bear the incredible inconveniences of filling prescriptions of a restricted medication---getting special approval every year from insurance companies because we are over the age of 19, not being able to refill or call in prescriptions, but having instead to always go in every 30 days with a new paper scrip, etc. etc.
If you need immediate release Adderall, talk to your doctor about that. Don't start crushing your XR.
End of rant. Thank you for your patience. We now resume regular scheduled posting.
