Question 1

Accepted Answer

Interactions: See if the DayQuil ( there are multiple formulations)has pseudoephederine or a decongestant in it. If so,they shouldn't be taken together.

Question 2

how many hours in between taking my adderall (which i take at 6am to start my work day), it and dayquil? i'm sick and can't find it the info i need?

Accepted Answer

: What kind of work do you do?  Difference between being around moving machinery and sitting behind a desk.  Adderal should have no negative effect on work, but how do you personally feel.  Day quill may also be inconsequential as tro your wok, but all individuals react differently to meds.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Caution: Pseudoephedrine in Dayquil and amphetamine in Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) can increase blood pressure and heart rate. Talk to your doctor before taking Dayquil while you're on Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine).

Question 4

i am prescribed 30mg adderall. i have a running nose and congestion and was wondering how long after i take my adderall is it okay to take dayquil?

: Avoid nyquil due to moderate interaction between adderall and the ingredients of nyquil. You can take benadryl for congestion and runny nose but do not drive or operate machinery if you feel sleepy or drowsy.

: yes

Question 6

30mg of adderal a day + 60mg viagra (sildenafil) sunday+ dayquil sun -tues + alieve sunday gave me a rash tuesday? i have prescriptions for the required ones.

Accepted Answer

Too many drugs: I' m not a detective bit since your rash began on tuesday. I would suspect that viagra (sildenafil)  could have caused your rash. Aleve and dayquill could also be responsible. You may have to see an allergist to find the cause.

Question 7

did i damage my dopaminergic system because i no longer feel the adderall that i take it used to elevate my mood and focus i was taking more than prescribed a bunch of different times and was taking invega sustenna with it. is the invega interfering?

Accepted Answer

: When unanticipated responses to chronic medication are experienced, this is typically a result of tolerance.  Consideration for dosage modification or alternative medications may be needed.  Contact your doctor and discuss options in detail.
Several alternative pathways may be beneficial.

Question 8

for an adderall long time-user (1year) is 1 week off enough to reset tolerance? if i take days off once my dose no longer work will it prevent my body from developing addiction/withdrawal symptoms ?

Accepted Answer

Adderall tolerance: 1 week is likely NOT enough time  -   it will take about 7 half lives (dosed 1 X a day) to clear your system  - so it might be out of your system in a week but tolerance may take more time.    So physicians recommend patients hold their dose on weekends  and over long school breaks to avoid tolerance building up.

good luck

Question 10

is it true that if you take dayquil for symptom management if you have a cold (pn drip/sore throat/cough) that the cold may take longer to go away?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily : I would treat symptoms if improves the patient feeling better.Sometimes if you suppress a cough you may not clear secretions as much but if does significantly make you feel better and causes no other harm such as increasing blood pressure then I would treat it.It will likely not increase the duration of the illness that significantly.
