Hi everyone, long time lurker, first time posting. I'll dive right into my question - For those of you who have been prescribed both generic and brand name Adderall XR 30mg, do you notice a difference in the "high", efficacy, and comedown?comedian? When I was first prescribed Adderall back in 2019 my dr. put me on the brand name and I've taken that ever since. I recently changed jobs, unfortunately there is a waiting period before my new insurance kicks in. To make a long story short, for the first time ever I ended up having to get the generics.
WOW.
What a difference. I honestly don't like the "feel" of the generics at all. Working in the Healthcare industry I understand the differences between generic and brand medications, but for me, that doesn't explain why I felt such a difference between the two. Here is what I felt:
-The initial "high" felt, dirty. I know that's a subjective, vague statement, but it just didn't feel as good/clean as the brand
-Even though they were the same mg, they didn't seem to last NEARLY as long.
-Comedown. When I take a 30mg xr of the brand in the morning, then chew up some beads from another pill later in the day, I can usually "reawake" the high from my initial pill that I swallowed earlier in the day. By the time I'm laying in bed around midnight I'm feeling relaxed and almost euphoricly calm. With the generics, if I do this, I either don't feel the ones I chew or I do, but then I'm laying in bed later feeling anxious and with a headache.
Any thoughts?
