How Long Does E 404 Adderall  Pill Last?

E 404 Adderall is a brand of  Amphetamine and Dextroamphetamine 30 mg supplied by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals Inc.. Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine combination like E 404 pill is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (uncontrollable desire for sleep or sudden attacks of deep sleep). These two medicines belong to the group of medicines called central nervous system (CNS) stimulants.

E 404 pill works in the treatment of ADHD to increase attention and decrease restlessness in patients who are overactive, cannot concentrate, or are easily distracted. It is used as part of a total treatment program that also includes social, educational, and psychological therapy.

Even though E 404 Adderall pill is a prescription medication, it is often abused. In recent years, many young adults have abused the medication for its euphoric effects. A 2016 study published in The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry found that Adderall misuse is highest among adults aged 18 to 25, who primarily receive the medication from loved ones without a prescription.

From 2016 to 2017, the number of people age 12 and older who misused Adderall increased from 5.1 million to 5.2 million. Adderall and amphetamine abuse is on the rise. People who abuse Adderall often take someone else’s medication or buy it illegally. They may also take it in a way other than prescribed (by crushing, snorting, or injecting it) in an attempt to intensify the high. High school and college students may use the drug to improve their performance in school, and adults may take them to improve their memory or perform better at work. Misuse can lead to addiction, overdose, and significant adverse effects such as cardiovascular disease, unhealthy weight loss, and psychotic symptoms.
