In reply to Whats the highest dose of Dex Adderall ur scripted, posted by Paulbwell on May 22, 2005, at 17:17:29
I have heard people mention maximum of 30mg, 40mg.
I know that 30mg Adderall XR is insufficient for meFound on the Amen groups website
There are no good guidelines for determining what is the best dose of ADD medication for any individual. Trial and error are required. However, the maximum dose of Adderall is thought by many doctors, including the Harvard University ADD Group, to be 3/4 of a milligram per pound of body weight (120 mg per day for a 160 pound person). The maximum dose for Ritalin is thought by many doctors to be 1 milligram per pound of body weight (160 mg per day for a 160 pound person.) While these maximum doses are considerably higher than the 60 mg per day approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and more than most people need, some people do not get much benefit from doses of 60 - 80 mg per day. Please work with your doctor to find the correct dose for you.
