Adderall is prescribed for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy after diagnosis by a licensed clinician. It works by increasing dopamine and norepinephrine activity in the brain, which can improve attention, impulse control, and wakefulness. Treatment is individualized and often paired with behavioral therapy, educational support, or sleep-management strategies.
Dosage varies by formulation and indication. For ADHD, immediate-release (IR) Adderall commonly starts at 5 mg once or twice daily, with gradual weekly titration; typical total daily doses range from 5–40 mg, divided. Extended-release (XR) Adderall usually begins at 10–20 mg once daily, with common ranges of 10–30 mg/day.
For narcolepsy, dosing may start at 5 mg daily and be increased as needed, with maximums up to 60 mg/day in divided doses.
