E65 ADHD: Stimulants: Dextroamphetamine and Mixed Amphetamine Salts (Adderall)


Listen Later

Today I will start discussing the stimulant medications used for ADHD. I will be starting with the amphetamine medications.

These include medications you have heard of such as Dexedrine, Procentra, Zenzedi, Xelstrym, Adderall, and Mydayis. I'll go through all the details on what distinguishes each of these medications to help you decide when you might want to use each of them. I mostly stick with only a few of the stimulants, but I will describe some situations where you may want to consider each one of these. This is what I love best.
