My perscription got damaged?!
Question:
My perscription got damaged?
My 20mg Adderall XR capsule got a dent in it. is it still safe?
Answers:
Hi,
I'm not a doctor or pharmacist but I take the exact same medicine. That being said, it is definitely safe to take it, even if the capsule part has a dent in it. The capsule shell is really quite thin so the beads inside it are the time-released kind.
Just don't chew up the beads, as that would cause the medication to be released all at once.
I've had one break before and checked into it then...of course, if you don't feel safe taking it, you shouldn't (or call your pharmacist first).
