HAS ANYONE TAKEN THEM TOGETHER? I TAKE 3 10MG/325 A DAY WHICH IS PRESCRIBED, AND I'VE JUST BEEN PRESCRIBED 20MG ADDERALL, IS IT GOING 2 AFFECT OR CHANGE HOW THEY WORK INDIVIDUALLY? ALSO, IN MY P.M. CONTRACT, AMPHETIMINES ARE ONE OF THE THINGS TESTED 4 IN U.A.; WILL THIS BE A CONCERN OR CAUSE 2 STOP MY PRESCRIPTION, CAUSE I DO HAVE CHRONIC PAIN, BUT WOULD BENEFIT FROM THE ADDERALL FOR MY FOCUS N ANXIETY. THNX 4 ANY REPLIES N INSIGHT

I take adderall IR and Percocet 10/325. Can these two meds damage my physical health such as intestinal or stomach problems. Percocets give me energy and help low back and leg pain. Can adderall help wean me off percocets. I only take 3 a day and adderall 2 a day.

I agree, I've been prescribed both, and have never had an issue with PM. It's a prescribed medication, not something you're abusing. People who are prescribed Adderall for ADD, ADHD, and/or a sleep disorder like hyposomnia also get injured and have pain, just like anyone else. My guess is that no pain mgmt physician worth their salt would discharge you because another doctor felt you'd benefit from Adderall. After all, there's no reason to penalize those with attention deficits who also suffer with pain. If any doctor would discharge you from their practice because you're prescribed Adderall, I'd get my medical records first - to show there's never been any problems before, and then hire an atty.

IT ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT CANCEL OUT EITHER WAY.
THEY DO HOWEVER INTERACT NICELY TOGETHER

That is Rite I was prescribed add n had to stop because it would cancel out my oxy med n my pain level would go through the roof. Dealing with my pain is more important n couldnt risk the meds not working cause I took the 2 to close together.

I know this is an old post, but maybe my answer will help someone who is currently researching. I have been prescribed both for years. There really isn't any dangerous physical or medical interactions. They just cancel one another out. If you take your Adderrall in the morning to kick off the day, don't take your percs until mid-late afternoon. The narcotics in the percs cancel out the amphetamines in teh adderrall & vice versa. Taking adderrall after a few percs will f*** up your relaxed head. Be careful about doing them too close cause it can make you start speedballing. ( You take a perc first, then feel like u need an Add but have to take two to counter the "down" of the add...repeat..repeat.) My Advice is..know & stick to your schedule. I do 30 mg of immediate release add at 8:00am & 1:00pm and then 2 percs at 3:00, 5:00, 7:00 & 9:00. I know that is a lot - but I havent changed my doses in years. if you dont have a strict schedule, you'll be a speed freak in no time. You'll use the percs to come down from Add & Add to wake up from percs. I look at Adds as daytime (before 2:00pm or else I wont sleep) & percs as nighttime (after 2:00p.) I use anti-inflammatories, for my knee pain during the day. I think it's healthy to allow yourself to know & live with a certain amount of the pain or else you become too scared to ever be without meds.

Based on my research, there aren't any interactions found between Percocet and Adderall. This doesn't necessarily mean that no interactions exist, but my references state that every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is accurate.

I wouldn't be worried about a U.A. if you have been prescribed both of these medications. Just make sure you show them proof of your prescription ahead of time and you won't have to worry about a positive result showing up.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please post back and I will be happy to assist you.
