Adderall is so commonly prescribed but honestly for some people the better choice may be dextroamphetamine. I know it was for me.

The levo-amphetamine in adderall causes what is known as peripheral side effects. Higher heart rate. And so on. It doesn’t actually help the brain. Apparently it helps the dextro part last longer.

But its also potentially dangerous.
