Quitting adderall xr

Posted by keri fox on May 15, 2008, at 14:44:56

Hi,
For various reasons I feel like I don't need Adderall xr anymore (I have been on a psychostimulant 10+ years). I will stay on the Wellbutrin SR for my depression but am tired of dealing with the Adderall prescription each month and the hassel involved in refilling it.

I was on 10mg of Adderall XR a day and Wellbutrin SR at 400mg. I don't know if I ever lost weight from the Adderall xr since I don't weight myself.

My question/concern is at 10mg dose will I have an extreme amount of weight gain when I quit the Adderall? I stopped it for about a year when I had my baby and gained 39 pounds by the end of the pregnancy. I didn't have any noticable side effects from cessation during my pregnancy.

Any experience with getting off 10mg/Adderall and tips on managing symptoms if I do get them? Is it inevitable that I will gain weight?

Any advice or comments are appreciated.
