What’s the Difference between Adderal XR and generic Adderal?

Compared to the standard Adderal(generic), Adderal XR contains a different combination of stimulants that are metabolized at different speeds inside the body. This gives Adderal XR a longer lasting effect with a more gradual experience to and from its highest(peak) effect on the body. Also Adderal XR contains is medication in two different colored beads. Which dissolve in the stomach at varying rates. One has an almost immediately effect and the other roughly 3 to 4 hours. There are several factors that can affect this(which we talk about later in the blog.) The effects of Adderal XR depending on dosage can last for up to 12 hours.

Adderal was developed to treat ADD and ADHD in children and adults. These disorders have several symptoms which include:
-Losing train of thought and forgetfulness during daily activities

If you have most of these symptoms and you might think you should be prescribed adderal, there are tests you can take online. Depending on the doctor it is relatively easy to get prescribed adderal.
