Add a serotonergic drug like an SSRI (keep the dose low), or a mild NE/DAerigc drug like bupropion, etc. Nardil vastly attenuates stimulant comedowns, but using stimulants + MAOIs is not something everyone likes to do.

Of course, mucking with SE could theoretically reduce the effectiveness of the stimulant. A lot of people also use benzos, barbs, or meprobamate for this purpose, but beware of getting caught in an Elvis Presley-esque upper-downer cycle.
