Not necessarily : First you need to clarify if it is Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) or Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) XR. The amount of these medication are not correlated with the weight. A 40 lbs child could need more than a 216 lbs adult. A dose of 120 mg of either Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) is over the FDA approved dose obtained by information from clinical trials. To lower the risk you require several evaluations starting for your heart condition.
