Side effects of adderall when mixed with dexedrine?
I have a 3 month check up appointment tomorrow and I am not really satisfied with my medication. So far I have tried Ritalin, Provigil/Modafinil, Adderall IR, and now Adderall XR. The Adderall XR doesn't even last that long for me. I can take one at 6 PM and still sleep. Although some days it works better than others. It is never consistent and seem like either it is kind of working but doesn't last long, or I feel crummy and have gross side effects. The other medications were even worse, so I don't want to have to start all over, but I can't help but feel like it could be better. Has anyone else also tried all of these with no luck and found something else that actually worked? I was thinking about Dexedrine. Has anyone tried Dexedrine and Adderall and had negative side effects from the Adderall but not the Dex? Any other suggestions? I also have Baclofen for night time, but I find that it doesn't do much and/or makes me groggier in the AM. Thanks!
also, i noticed you complained about XR meds-- XR meds can sometimes be tricky because so much can affect the way they're metabolised. (sidenote: i would recommend trying to be strict about taking the XR on schedule, and never taking anything XR that late in the day-- even if you can sleep with it-- because it could be interfering with your sleep in ways that you might not realize). sometimes people take a combination of XR meds and IR meds with the XR to be taken only in the a.m., and the IR as additional boosters to get through the day.
