In reply to dexedrine vs. ritalin, posted by michael on January 25, 2001, at 18:35:31
> Hello Michael,
Can u tell me for how long the effect last with dexedrine spansule ?
I was previously on pemoline''Cylert'' wich was amazing.. till it was lasting for the whole day up to te end of the evening just before bed time,
then I had to stop it since it has been withdrawn from the Canadian market.
And then tried dexedrine spansule, the 20 mg dose that was suppose to have a 12 full hours effect but lasted only for 4 to 5 hours in reality.
What about you ?
"...patients who report that they feel "wired" on Ritalin actually get a calming effect from Dexedrine."
