The rules for Dexamphetamine (dexamfetamine)
Adderall/Dexedrine are controlled substances: you must have a prescription, keep the medication in its original packaging with the label intact, and always declare it to a Canada Border Services Agency officer on entry. The quantity must not exceed the lesser of a single course of treatment or a 30-day supply (the 90-day allowance applies only to benzodiazepines and other targeted substances, not stimulants).
What to do
- valid prescription
- medication kept in original packaging with the label intact
- declaration to Canada Border Services Agency on entry
