What dosage do you take?

8 days ago by Zetta to c/adhd

And body weight if you don't mind sharing. I've been on 10mg xr (Adderall) for 5 months and it's been helpful for me. I'm about 155lb, just up'd my dosage and got perscribed a 5mg ir dose to take as needed as well so I'll be taking 15mg a day.

What dose are you all on, I remember scrolling through a reddit thread a while ago and almost everybody was taking really large doses imo, like 30 - 40 mg a day. Maybe that's sorta normal, I dunno.

The generics of 30mg Vyvanse in the morning and 10mg Ritalin in the afternoon (as needed)- usually around 9am and then 2pm. Seems to work pretty well for me!
