  • I’m on generic Adderall, XR and instant release. My doctor started me on just the instant release for like a month to see how it went, and it was ok but the crash/comedown was rough (headaches mostly!). She then put me on just the XR which kinda worked but was far less effective. Now I take a combo, and it avoids the problems with each individual med.

    I take a 10mg XR and 5mg instant in the morning, and then around lunch I take another 5mg instant. It’s been like 11 months of that combo and it’s still working well, though I do tend to not take it on weekends which might be helping avoid tolerances going up too quickly!

    My insurance pays for most of it, I think 30 days for each is like $10 or $20 total.
