In reply to Adderall vs. Dexedrine. A few questions..., posted by Tom1982 on December 8, 2003, at 23:50:45
IIRC, L-amphetamine doesn't help you focus or elevate your mood, it only causes bodily side effects like jitters and rapid heart beat. I always thought that it was in there to make adderall less abusable. But some people claim that adderall feels "smoother" and they prefer it over dexedrine. In my own limited experience, dexedrine caused an unpleasant knot in my stomach, but was otherwise tolerable, whereas adderall knotted up my stomach less but caused so many other side effects that I found it useless. Does anyone know if L-amphetamine has a purpose?
