The Adderall dosage that your healthcare provider may prescribe will vary depending on several factors, such as your age, other medical conditions you may have, and other medications you may currently be taking. In general, the Adderall dosage for treating ADHD should not be more than 40mg per day total. The dosage of Adderall for adults with narcolepsy is usually between 5mg and 60mg per day. The first dose of Adderall should be taken first thing in the morning.
The dose of Adderall® (amphetamine and dextroamphetamine) prescribed by your healthcare provider will vary depending on a number of factors, including:
Your age
- Other narcolepsy or ADHD medications you may have tried
- Other medical conditions you may have
- Other medications you may be currently taking.
As is always the case, do not adjust your dose unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
