No: If your child has not taken Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) xr for a year, there is no risk of side effects related to that medicine.

No: The good and the bad about stimulants is that they have very little residual effect. Side effects are usually gone after 24 hours off the meds.
