> Suzie,
> You definitly would not want to take Dexedrine, because it actually use to be prescribed as a diet drug, so it does kill the appetite. Actually, Adderall cuts my appetite quite a bit, which is good, I need to lose about 20 pounds. I initially talked to my Pdoc about Dexedrine, but he prefers Adderall, so I don't think he would prescribe the other. You are lucky that Adderall is effective for you at such a small dose. Even though it is losing effectiveness, my dose is at a level that my Pdoc will not increase. Which is why I'm thinking about alternatives such as Provigil or Adrafinil. Sorry this post wanders a little - pointwise, it's that darn ADD again! Take care! CarolAnnHowdy,CarolAnn......
Are you going to consider taking the Provigil?
My doctor is at present asking me to try it and I am almost reluctant to switch from the Adderall to the Provigil as I have been through the mill dosing on so many various drugs. Should you decide to try the Provigil,would you please let me know?Take care,
