Is adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) addicting and what are the signs of withdrawal if any?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) is addicting in terms of it being dosed for purposes other then those prescribed (i.e. To "get high"). The presence of a discontinuation syndrome is of debate. May involve dysphoric mood.
