> It may be likely that Adderall may have more to offer with respect to energy, motivation, and focus. Adderall seems to be the most popular out of all the stim. ADD drugs. Of course people react differently to different meds so you basically have to figure it out through experimentation.I have tried several other stimulants besides Ritalin and was unable to take them at all because they all caused a lot of side effects because of a bladder disease I have. In fact I think Adderal has dex in it which I have tried. The likelyhood of a mix of three different stimulants being okay in my body is about nill. My pdoc still cannot figure out why I am able to tolerate Ritalin. AndrewB seemed to know but I never quite understood it all. I thought my best bet would be Strattera. Even that I will probably not be able to take but at least I have a fighting chance going it. I want to take something besides Ritalin because it really is not the best mood elevator or at concentration , focus and motivation. Basically it gets me out of bed and gives me a little energy. On the really down side it makes me a motormouth sometimes.
