> I was on Dexedrine Spansules 10mg and went to the new generic dexamphetamine spansules (NOT Dextrostat) and haven't really noticed any difference. I don't know how much that helps you regarding regular tablets.....but I thought I'd put my 2 cents in.

> JerrySo there is a generic form of dexedrine spansules? The last time I went to fill my dex spansule prescription, my normal pharmacy was out and sent me to another place. When I got there they asked me if I was OK with generics. I told them that if there is a generic, then great, no problem. Then the pharmacist called me back and essentially told me that my doc was an idiot and that what he had prescribed didn't exist ( the pdoc put dexedrine SR on the scrip and no other pharmacist had any trouble understanding what that was). I had to point out to him to look up dexedrine spansules. Then he understood and said that there wasn't a generic but there was one coming out soon. Then they screwed up my insurance and told them that there was a generic but I had insisted on the name brand. Needless to say I won't be visiting that pharmacy anytime soon.
