What to know about prescription stimulants

Prescription stimulants include amphetamines such as Adderall, Vyvanse and Dexedrine, and methylphenidate products such as Ritalin and Concerta. They are Schedule II controlled substances. Taken as prescribed they help many people with ADHD; misused, they can lead to dependence, sleep problems, anxiety and heart strain.

Treatment for stimulant addiction centers on behavioral approaches, with contingency management having some of the strongest evidence. Learn how stimulant addiction is treated.

Therapies that work for stimulant addiction

Contingency management gives small rewards for drug-free urine tests and has strong evidence for stimulant use disorder. The Matrix Model combines individual and group therapy, family education and relapse prevention in a structured outpatient schedule. Community reinforcement helps rebuild work, relationships and activities that compete with drug use.

The programs on this page report one or more of these approaches. Confirm the details with each program near Pennsylvania.
