anyone ever heard of adderall (alt. to eph)?

**Elwood54** · 10-03-2004, 02:37 PM

it's a drug used to help people with ADD and ADHD achieve better grades in school/college. it's a cns stimulant. i was looking at drug description and the sides and it seems like it could be an alternative to ephedrine.

reason i ask is i might become prescribed to adderall and i don't want to be taking both eph and adderall at the same time considering they both raise the heart rate and blood pressure.

does anyone knowledgeable about this drug know if it's a good alternative to ephedrine?

EDIT:

forgot to add im on a eca stack, and that's why i don't want to be taking both, but i'd like to do better in my studies.

the only thing this is gonna do is not make you hungry. and keep you up all night

well im just wondering if eph will have the same sort of effect adderall does in the classroom. maybe just not as prominent?

tbh im scared of adderall. but i really think i can benefit from it too.

Ephedra will wake you up but adderall makes it possible to concentrate on anything. It makes you incredibly attentive. I have a perscription for it and I think its great.

do you find yourself dangerously addicted to it djs?

It's pretty addictive. It is an amphetamine.

**gococksDJS** · 10-04-2004, 08:25 AM

I agree that it's addictive but as long as you are responsible about it you will be fine. I have friends that cut it up and snort it because it's basically cocaine when you do that, but ive never done this. I only take it before classes that are boring as shit or when im studying for an exam but every 2 months i stop taking it completely for 2 weeks. It is incredible stuff if you are responsible. I seem to retain much more information when im on it. I even understood organic and inorganic chemistry when i used it, which shows that it can be great if your responsible with it. If you have any other questions just PM me.

yeah man definitely... that would be great, i need to talk to someone like you

ive been taking adderal for 6 years. The two are very diffrent. Adderal wont give you that energy and willingness to push the bar up more or go longer like a ephedra. I have never taken ephedrine but i would guess their similar. I have a problem eating anything when im on adderal, which obviously isnt good period but even worse if you lift weights. I did take hydroxycut with ephydra and adderal at the same time and was in reasonable shape and never had a problem, just never let it get out of hand. How much is your doctor reccomending you take? Is it XR or a regular tablet? I take 30mg Xr (extended release) for concentration. I wouldnt say it gives you an edge when you lift but i would reccomend it for studying and such. As far as addiction goes, as long as your not huffing down the whole bottle and poping mad pills i wouldnt be concerned.

I also take time release 20mg pills, and the first 2 weeks I was on it i had almost no appetite, but it came back after about a month and now I eat like a horse. I still say as long as your responsible its an extremely effective drug. Don't believe that "True Life: Im on Adderall" shit you see on MTV. I owe my success as a chemistry major to adderall.

**Elwood54** · 10-05-2004, 12:13 PM

yeah i've seen the mtv episode, the girl who became a druggie from it was very irresponsible and impulsive but given to the right person it seems very beneficial... im just trying to convince the rents right now, they are scared i might get addicted from it... all they see is the "amphetamine" in the full scientific name and how it's a "schedule 2" drug classified by the fda and they fail to see how it'd help me...

anyways djs, we still need to chat

**gococksDJS** · 10-05-2004, 03:09 PM

I PMed you back, but if you didn't get it just send me another one. About it being a schedule 2 drug, yes it is because it's an amphetamine, and you will have to sign a paper saying you fully understand this and that you take full responsibility for watching over your stash, but the actual amphetamine part of it is so that the electrical signals in your brain can fire more actively and strongly, because information sent along your nervous system has to jump across a gap in your brain, and people with ADD have nodes that do not fire strong enough to sustain a strong electrical signal so they retain less information and brain activity is weaker and not as steady.The adderall decreases the firing distance between the signaling nodes and recieving nodes so that you retain information at a much more efficient rate. It is in the same family as crystal meth, but they are two very different substances.
