      Adderall is the most effective one I have found, but it's also the most... "explosive" when combined with CAFFEINE. no joke, I had to basically cut my coffee to nearly 0. Once I did that, it worked a lot better.. Mood more stable, sleeping better, etc. Also, I don't know if I'm just an outlier or what, but I'm on 40mg/day and I have never lost weight on this.. In fact I put on some nice muscle mass from working out... Also, the FDA label says 20mg/day is the target dose for adults. 40mg is the FDA "max" for ADHD... but I've seen people on ADHD forums talk about 60+mg/day (which seems insane to me, but we're all different I guess). Good video.
      Edit: as a side-note but Adderall has been getting hard to find. For the past 4 months, my pharmacy has been on backorder. 😔 I hate calling them to ask whether they can fill my script!! It makes me worry every month that I won't have meds that I take daily!

      dr. aly- i'm currently on generic ir and have tried brand name adderall both xr&ir, all of these work great for met, however, i get muscle aches/strains, ligament/tendon strains, and joint popping along with goofy nerve aches that migrates all over the body, this happens within 5minutes of intake and last throughout the day/night. any answers to this?
      also, dr. wants me to switch to vyvanse, she said it is smoother. my intake of water is around 100 ounces per day. thanks.

      You don't follow your hippocratic oath by suggesting anyone of your patients should take any amphetamine. You probably didn't even take the time to learn about what the drug does to people, I almost lost my life because of it and I know dozen others who also went through hell because of it. For example in 2012 alone 116K people were admitted to rehab due to Adderal addictions. Now I know every single canned response you will have for me "it's not like meth it's slow release...", "it doesn't effect people with adhd like it does normal people" "if you take as prescribed there are no addiction risks..." etc etc. All these canned responses are a complete joke, you guys are killing people or worse turning them into addicts with psychological issues they will never recover from. What's sad is ADHD can be managed without drugs (I achieved this feat and it's very effective, more effective than when I would take Aderrall) but you want the easy way out, giving meth to people :) and calling it completely different than meth (I suggest you try both and tell me if you feel any difference before peddling this crap). If you want I would love to debate you about this subject, it's time you guys stop killing people.
