Hi Robert,
Had chance to read other posts. Being in health care, I'm sure you know the risks of long term amphetamine use, and use of mixed amphetamines. I geuss I'm surprised you would consider it at all, with the access you have to detailed drug information!!! Of couse, PDocs prescribe them every day, so I just don't know. Are they not as risky as I thought? In addition, I feel its possible you would be looking at a depression upon D/C that could be intense, and certainly last longer than a week. Not to beat this to death, but if another try on Ritalin IR would offer alternative, I'd certainly give it another try. Have you tried Strattera? Also, if you do have information re: risk vs.benefit using amphetamines long term I'd love to hear it if you don't mind!
Regards,
~Jade
