Michael, yo!
That's strange, you know, dexedrine is only one isomer of amphetamine, namely dextro, and adderall is mixed, so it *seems* like you should need more.
Alas, such posits are awry, as, I myself can attest that 30mg in one sitting is an abnormally high dosage. Not that 30mg isn't used when neccessary, but I think the routine is to start on five, and, just like the jeffersons, brother, move on up!
Best of luck,
-James
