Depends a bit: There are factors that can affect time to elimination of dextroamphetamine such as the pH of the urine, how much drug has been taken...but on average I would say you're looking at about 2.5-3 days from last dose to have about 98% out of your system.

The half life is 10 : Hours. For a drug to leave your system it takes 5 half-lives or 50 hours, so about 2 days.

Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) XR is an: Amphetamine preparation for treatment of adhd. The 'mean elimination half-life' for d-amphetamine is 10-13 hours (faster in children) and it should completely clear within 24 hours. There is no unexpected accumulation at steady state in children. Alkaline urine phs result in reduced renal elimination, and acidic phs and high flow rates result in increased renal elimination. Best regards.

Pretty Quickly: Although it is an extended release preparation, most of a dose of Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) xr will be out of the body after 24 hours, and it should be completely out of the body within a few days. Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) is not stored in the body, so the length of time is stays in the body is purely a function of how quickly it gets metabolized.

Time: If you have been off adderal for a 24-36 hour period, it is essentially out of your system. You may experience some side effects from not being on the medication, either chemical or physical dependence symptoms, but the drug is essentially gone.
