All pros: No medicine was ever proven to be safe if taken indefinitely. Adderall is amphetamine based used most commonly for treatment of ADHD. Using the minimum amount for the least amount of time is always the goal in the long range. Talk to your prescriber of safe ways of accomplishing your goals.
