Is It Ok to Take Adderall?
Question by Millie B: is it ok to take adderall?
i’m in medical school and i have a prescription for adderall 25mg. i know the studies say “there are no long term effects” associated with the drug, but i was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on what the negatives may be of taking this medicine. i take it only when i have an exam coming up. mostly, i have one a day for no more than 3-4 days straight, followed by a week or so of not taking it. like i said, i only take it when necessary. any thoughts?
yes i’m aware i’m in medical school. but, i’m a first year so we haven’t gotten to pharm yet. also, i’ve learned that what health care professionals say can be different from peoples’ personal experience. thanks!
