What are the legal implications of drug use?

Legal implications of drug use is a "loaded" question. It depends on whether or not the drug is legal for use in society. If the drug is "legal" AND prescribed by a physician licensed to prescribe said "drug", and used ONLY by the patient to whom the "drug" was prescribed, then there should be no LEGAL ramifications. If, AND ONLY if the "drug" in question is listed as ILLEGAL for consumption in society will legal ramifications occur. In other words: If you are using MEDICATION (drugs) that are illegal to use, or consuming Medication that has not been prescribed to you by a licensed physician, ultimately you are breaking the law.

When to administer Adderall?

The "straight up" (legal) answer would be: Administer Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts or MAS) only to the person to whom it is prescribed, exactly as prescribed. Adderall is a "schedule II" drug, and as such, it is illegal for anyone to take or possess it if it is not prescribed to them unless that person is responsible for administering it to a minor prescribed the medication.
