Strattera vs Adderal?!


Question: Strattera vs Adderal?
I am prescribed and take vyvanse 50 mg once a day. If I run out I take adderal xr 20mg a couple times a day. I ran out of both and I can't get my prescription filled until Wednesday due to the fact I lost the initial one and got to go back and get it written again. I have strattera 40mg I was prescribed a while ago while first adjusting to the medicine and I was curious if I should take that until wednesday. It is hard for me to function without my medicine especially going to class and work. Does strattera provide the same effects as adderal and vyvanse?? How Many would I need to take? I haven't taken the strattera yet since the adderal and vyvanse work like a charm. Thanks!

I have taken many forms of ADHD medication including Focalin, Focalin XR, Vyvanse (70mg), and Adderall XR. Vyvanse was alright, as it did help my studies somewhat. I now take Strattera 25mg once in the morning. I have seen drastic improvements in my college work and studies and have noted an increase in energy. My life is much more organized now, which is a first for me. It does mess with my sleep cycle a little bit if I do not take it before 9 AM. The loss of appetite is troublesome because I am actually trying to GAIN weight through eating well and weight training. Good medication overall I have been on Strattera for a while now, I buy it online without a prescription through reputable UK http://www.pharmacynextdoor.com I am sure there are also no OTC meds even similar to Strattera and Adderall. Good luck.



Adderall and Vyvanse are in the group of amphetamines, or stimulants. Strattera is a non-stimulant medication from SNRI family, that is serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, among which we find Effexor and Cymbalta. Both amphetamines and SNRIs affect you brain and mood, but they act differently, though may be used in the same situations, e.g. attention deficit disorder. Choosing among them depends on the response of an individual. Some people better respond to Adderall or Vyvanse, some - to Strattera. Some - to any of them. You do not know exactly which is which until you try.

Strattera? isn't anywhere near as potent as Adderall? or Vyvanse?. That said, if it was recently prescribed in your name, it might be better than nothing at all.
