In reply to Dexedrine Spansules *OR* Adderall XR, posted by DiscoPuppy on May 29, 2002, at 16:20:19
DP,
I cannot answer from direct experience because the goverment of canada has yet too deem adderall a worthy drug for my use.
I could not tolerate ritalin - too jitery.
Dex SR work well but the crash is harsh. I get about 2 hours of ADD-on-steroids about 8 hours after taking the dex spansules. I take a small amount to regular dex at night to manage the crash.
My research says that Adderall XR is as effective as Dexedrine but the ride is smoother. This happens because the 4 amphetamine salts have different activation profiles - kick in and wear off at different times.
Of course, individual chemistry will out in the end.
Good luck
Paulp.s. Adderall in canada soon I hear.
