Hello,
SWIM is using low dose Adderall XR 10mg, Is baking soda 1/2 teaspoon everyday fine?(say continuously for 2 months)
SWIM usually wakes up early in the morning 4:00am, eat 10mg with 2 slices of whole wheat bread and then goes to study. =D
8o8o
 
I might sound stupid here, but what do you mean by Baking soda? Is that some sort of slang for something. If so, I've never heard of it. Orrr?

Edit- Ahhh, baking soda makes adderall more potent?

SWIM = OP

Long term use of baking soda is not advisable - your body has over 200 redundant pH buffers. I'd imagine stomach cramps and excessive thirst would be one of the results.

Why don't you look into getting a dose increase assuming this is a prescription?

No swimming man. It's pointless and offers you no protection.

To stay on topic, I have no clue if that much baking soda is healthy.

skip the baking soda and take a few Tums instead.
the calcium carbonate you said you have will work just fine as well, considering that it is the active ingredient in Tums.

Tums are generally approved by doctors for long-term use; however if one was popping multiple antacids per day, one should seek the source of the heartburn...but, that is not the issue at hand here - to summarize, yes, it is okay to have a couple of Tums per day long term. It is not recommended to exceed 7500mg of calcium carbonate in 24 hours.

The only possible long term side effects I could find were possibilities of either constipation or diarrhea, which would resolve itself upon cessation of taking the supplement.

Since you are obviously seeking to have the amphetamine stay in your system longer (hence your inquiry about taking baking soda/calcium bicarbonate) it's important to take the supplement WITH FOOD. When taken on an empty stomach, the supplement will only alkalize the stomach acids for a short amount of time (approximately 30 minutes.) Where as if you take the alkaline supplement with food, it will keep the stomach acids at bay much longer (approx. 3 hours.)
