For the past month I have taken adderall about 6 times, and each time I took anywhere from 30-40 mg of instant release. I like to keep a break of 5 days to a week in between taking them.

When I took them today I didn't feel as "buzzed" so to speak. Is it possible I'm already building tolerance?

I'm also a daily pot smoker.
 
i'm curious too. i take 1-2 times a week. also did you switch brands at all? it seems like my sandoz IR were stronger than my teva IR


always be sure to take on empty stomach, and after taking some tums for best absorption.
 
i don't think either of you are using AMPH often enough to have any tolerance issues.

i took Adderall for awhile and can remember days like that... i'd take 40mg. and it would feel more like 20mg. conversely, i also remember times when i'd take 20mg. and feel like i took much-much more. perfectly normal in my opinion and, considering your pattern of usage, i would say it's just a little blip in regard to your absorption of it. and also, can't rule out the pot as having an affect on the way you feel either.
