I know this is a very cliche answer, but it really depends. I was told by my doctor that I metabolize Adderall (even the XR) very quickly. Effects only last 5-6 hours for me; I'm having to take two doses on the XR a day.
I've heard personal accounts that the XR lasts all day (up to 12-14 hours) for some people. I guess it really depends mostly on your weight, metabolism and dose.
Sorry to have given such a generic answer - I just had to give some input.

> How long does Adderall XR last? I've read varying accounts, from 8 hours to 12 hours. I'm also interested to know when the blood level peaks. I tried finding this information at some Adderall XR websites, but I couldn't find it, and I guess it's too new to be in the PDR.
