Yes: Relatively safe. In a small study of 4 mothers who received 15-45 mg per day, no undesirable effects were noted in any of the 4 infants. However, a higher dose is taken for nontherapeutic use, withholding breast feeding for 24 hours is recommended.

Yes. absolutely.: You body's metabolism for Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) will clear the medication as long as you are not on the xr type, and as long as the dose is not too high. There are safer medications for the treatment of adhd in breast feeding. You should ask your prescriber.
