There are least a half dozen other meds within the approval process. I don't know whether any of them are expected to be better at symptom removal or just more conveneient / less side effects / harder to abuse / more profitable.
For example Adderall is prescribed more than dexedrine but I don't believe there has been any research that has compared teh effects of the two medications. My straw polls have suggested that about 60% of people who prefer dexedrine to Adderall but Adderall is more profitable, more heavily marketed, and slightly less recognizable as an amphetamine to the naive patient.
