> Can anyone compare these two drugs when used to treat ADD.Is Desoxyn time released? Which is better?
james here....
Very few doc's use Desoxyn as the methyl version of amphetamine is often abused. As Desoxyn is a long acting amphetamine it does not need to be in a time release formaulation. As Dexadrine is very sucessful with most people with ADD there seems little reason to go to the stronger Desoxyn. Methamphetamine is more addictive than amphetamine. There is some indication that the subsituted amphetamines are more neurotoxic.
