Brief Answer:
amphetamine can be restarted

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing to us.

In ADHD and ADD drugs from amphatamine groups(Ritalin, Adderal, Desoxyn, Vyvanase) are really useful and effective.
I cannot understand why your doctor did not prescribe again though you were better with the medicines.
It should never be stopped cold turkey.

Amphatamine group of drugs are strict prescription drugs and they have high abuse potential.They can not be purchased without legal prescription in most of the countries of the world.

If your diagnosis of ADHD is confirmed I prefer to use this drug.
However online prescription is not valid and we cant help on that matter.

Provide me your exact location, so I can suggest some near by psychiatrist to whom you can consult and restart the treatment.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
