Adderall XR 10mg is a prescription medication used primarily to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children and adults. It contains a combination of two stimulant drugs, amphetamine and dextroamphetamine, which affect chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control.
Extended-Release Formula: Adderall XR is designed to release its active ingredients gradually over a 12-hour period, providing consistent symptom relief throughout the day.
Dosage: The 10mg dosage is often prescribed as a starting dose or for patients who require mild to moderate symptom control.
Administration: It is typically taken once daily in the morning, with or without food. The capsule can be swallowed whole or opened and sprinkled on a small amount of applesauce for easier ingestion.
