adderall xr just became available in generic this month. i was surprised when the pharmacist told me this last week when i picked up my script since i didn't think it's been even near the 20 years of exclusivity for the manufacturer. in any case, i saved a lot of money.
i'm wondering, though, has anyone tried the generic form? i want to know if adderall xr is one of those drugs where the generic is indistinguishable from the brand in effectiveness or whether it's a drug where you really need to take the brand to get the most benefit. a couple of years ago, when i took generic dexedrine spansules, i wasn't at all impressed, even though my pdoc had postulated that dexedrine is more potent than adderall. maybe that's true just of the brand form?
anyway, any input would be great.
thanks!
