> You seem to be saying also that the brand name dexedrine is not quite the same chemically as generic dextroamphetamine.
>I did not mean to say this--just that adderall's dextroamphetamine elements are bonded to other things in order to vary their metabolism. As far as I know, generic and brand-name dexamphetamine should be essentially identical (though I have heard people dispute this on the internet). I can't imagine why they wouldn't be the same, though I have no particular knowledge about it. ...Some say the Malinckrodt dexamphetamine or the brand name are best...
Also, the amount of sugar in a pill the size of a dexamphetamine seems as though it would be insignificant. And the idea that you 'shouldn't give kids sugar' is largely unsupported, as far as I can tell. I'm -told- that excess sugar in the bloodstream is quickly cleared out...
Anyway. If you've found one of these stimulants that seems to work, then maybe that's the one to go with? Often, anxiety can be dealt with by lowering the dose? I find that my anxiety generally disappears after a few days taking dexedrine, but that's not the case for everyone, I guess.
Best of luck!
Anyway--
