D-amphetamine Salt Combo Variations
(Newest replies first)

Is it normal for the size and shape of a generic drug to vary from store to store?

REPORT

After 20 years of being treated for narcolepsy with adderall, I can tell you what the problem is most likely. No matter how similar the product of different manufacturers is supposed to be, they are not. At least to my body. One or two generic producers make a version of adderall superior to the name brand. Teva I think bought out barr labs so really only one makes the very best version. Now here is how to check: when you put the tablet on your tongue take a second to taste it. Teva brand 30mg tabs are very sweet, almost like a baby aspirin. That's the primo stuff. Other maker's tabs are bland and tasteless. Those have very little effect and make me grouchy. I am a critical care nurse who has educated himself well on stimulants related to a 20 year struggle with narcolepsy and have never found a solid answer as to why the effects are so different. Fillers I doubt could cause such a drastic difference. But dont give up, trust me. Try to get teva or barr brand. Walgreens always has teva here in pensacola. I'd ask each pharmacy which generic they are dispensing. Good luck.

@nickname007,

Based on my research, D Amphetamine salts is indeed the generic for Adderall. The reason why this medication "may" not seem as effective could be due to the fact that if a medication is in generic form, it is permitted by the FDA to be allowed to contain as much as 20% more or less of the actual active ingredient. I don't know why pharmacies don't inform their customers about this! Also, depending on the manufacturer- the binders and fillers (inactive ingredients) used could be different.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Adderall Details

I hope this helps to answer your questions!

Is D-Amphetamine another name for Adderall? Or is it another version [generic?] of it? I mean what's the difference?

My doctor just prescribed Adderall for me, only for a few weeks until I can get through my thesis. The dosage is pretty low as I understand:

D-Amphetamine Salt Combo 10mg, once a day.

I have been taking it for 3 days now (1/day) 20-30min before I start writing, but really havent noticed any difference -other than my brain not freaking out anymore over the amount of work I have left for 3weeks. I am still distracted and not motivated to work, which makes me wonder if its because of the low dosage, or just my body system not responding to the chemical? ...or perhaps I just have an incorrect perception of Adderall being a magic transformational pill.

These types of pills can be different shapes, colors, and sizes. Even though they are the same mg...for example...a 30mg amphetamine salt combo can come in pink or orange...both act the same and have the same ingredients...even though they look nothing alike. The reason being that they are made from 2 different manufacturers.
