HomeQ & AQuestionsWhat is the highest dose of... Question posted by Degotto on 30 Sep 2015 Last updated on 9 May 2021 Michelle071286 24 Jan 2020 Ok... first of all, be respectful of people just because their doctors have probably told them incorrect information! Some of these comments or responses to other people answers were just vicious and it’s not necessary. Here is how it actually works... tolerance's build and once that happens we require a higher dosage. I started taking it when I was 10 and I’m 33 now. 230mg a day and I wish more than anything I never started taking it but it messed with my brains development because it was prescribed to me way too young. There should be a legal limit considering that such high doses aren’t safe simply because you’re tolerance is higher... our hearts don’t develop the same tolerance Hi, I've been reading over some of your answers and I'm wondering if you all are giving max dose for Adderall or Adderall XR? Is 90 mg of the XR safe? I'm a narcolepsy patient and have been on Adderall for years. Persistence717 6 April 2019 There is no max legal dose. However, as previously stated, government and insurance providers have certainly come up with ways to restrict how much is prescribed. Additionally, the varying locations give credence to any assertion that this is not necessarily ubiquitous and most likely occurs as a result of some ill informed complaint about the prescriber to one of the aforementioned entities (government, insurance organization). Such is the case with my psychiatrist who has all of the suddenly reduced the maximums on benzodiazapines and stimulants. BZDs now stop at 1mg (not including Restoril) and Adderall now ends at 40mg per day. I know this post is old but I found it interesting. Everyone is different and what works best for them could be a higher dose than someone else. I love in New Hampshire but my Doctor is in Boston. I take 1, 30mg IR & 1, 30mg XR in the morning and then again in the afternoon. Then I take two 20 mg in the evening and I barely feel like it’s working as I have been prescribed since I was much younger. So total I take a day would be 160mg. To “Spence “ recent reply What state are you in?That’s the amount that works for me yet Drs don’t go for it hereIt’s frustrating so I try to just deal with barely functioning but it’s horribleGlad to read someone else understands I have been on 120 mg of Adderall tablets a day for 6 years for Narcolepsy. Trials are the FDA used to set max doses. If they only text to 60 mg, that is generally the max dose approved. The max approved dose does not determine the amount the doctor prescribes; each doctor used there discretion & it SHOULD be based in symptoms - also determined by the provider.
