OMG you have a massive heart attack you need to call 911 immediately; extended release tabs are a slow continous release over a long period. Please if its for yourself or another seek help. If its in regards to a friend and you are aware of this,,you could also be held liable if the person dies.

Of course, I'm not a doctor so what I'm saying is purely anecdotal and should not be construed as giving medical advice.

I have a feeling you're not writing about yourself...right?

That's a fatal dose. It hasn't been TOO long; the XR means extended release soooo the side effects will keep effecting for a LONG time; getting worse each time until heart failure.  A dangerous situation indeed...

Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222. An overdose of Adderall can be fatal.

Overdose symptoms may include restlessness, tremor, muscle twitches, rapid breathing, confusion, hallucinations, panic, aggressiveness, unexplained muscle pain or tenderness, muscle weakness, fever or flu symptoms, and dark colored urine. These symptoms may be followed by depression and tiredness. Other overdose symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, uneven heartbeats, feeling light-headed, fainting, seizure (convulsions), or coma.
