I was just diagnosed With adult Add,My Dr. put me on 5mg. 2x a day adderall
Not to mention,I did get generic,the first few days,I felt a little jittery,not much,
But my focus and mood was noticebaly different even my husband commented,that the "cybil"lady has been away,Lol
Anywasy,now I feel like it is not even working,I am very tired when I take it,go figure,I thought I read that this is a Stimulant,No wonder coffee made me tired,I go back to the Dr. in 2 weeks,Should I sugest another Med.,or keep giving this a try,thanks

I've heard this complaint before - the initial starting dose is effective at first but then wanes. Doctors will start you off on a very low doseage to see how you respond to the drug, and then move you up if need be - 5mg is not a lot of Adderall, but it's enough for some people. There is no golden rule for dosage -it's hit and miss. One person might take 10mg a day and another might take 100mg a day to treat the same symptoms and since more is not always better, doctors will start low and work up to the optimum dose. I would guess that you need a more than 5mg if it seems to have stopped working, or doesn't last long enough. It does take some time to figure out what works best with regards to medication, so patience is recommended. Doctors tend to go slow when prescribing stimulants - a prudent but frustrating practice - but with a little time and luck, you'll find the right medication and dosage for you.
