Adderall XR is an extended-release, once-daily
formulation of Adderall (a new mix of different chemical forms of Dexedrine or
mixed salts). A single-dose of Adderall appears to be as effective as two daily
doses of Ritalin. Adderall can be given at home and doesn’t involve the school’s
participation or relieves the school of the responsibility. Additionally,
children who have previously been unsuccessfully treated with Ritalin because of
adverse side effects or poor responses may do better on Adderall. Adderall is
considered to be less harsh than Ritalin because it has less peaks and valleys.
