Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) 30 mg./day: is an acceptable adult dose. Offer to accompany your wife to her primary care physician & her psychiatrist to discuss your concerns. If she has no psychiatrist & no established diagnosis of ADHD or narcolepsy, you can ask her prescribing physician about benefits vs. risks of off-label use, potential side effects & interactions with her other prescribed, OTC & naturopathic medications.
