> Is your Adderall sustained or immediate release?
I haven't gotten the Rx filled yet, but it's for Adderall XR 30mg.
Hey, I just found this at WebMD (it's from just last week). The doctor there says:
"You can open the capsule and sprinkle the beads on food, but you're still getting the same effect as Adderall XR." –http://boards.webmd.com/webx?THDX@640.AIthaLsuuVt.0@.59ae1eae!thdchild=.59ae1eae
I want it to still have the sustained-release effect after I split it, so this sounds good. I'm surprised that it's just half dissolves immediately, half 4 hours later. The advertisements make a big deal out of "4 different salts of amphetamine" getting absorbed at 4 different rates. If the WdbMD info is correct, anybody could get the exact same XR effect by just taking half a regular Adderall now, half 4 hours later.
