Answer: Concerta and Adderall aren't very much different at all, except Adderall is more effective and Concerta has less side effects. They both are dopamine reuptake inhibitors. Adderal just seems to be more potent. Concerta is less addictive as well. hope this helps, Megan.******
Most simply, they are two different drugs. Concerta is a sustained-release formulation of methylphenidate, and Adderall XR is an extended-release formulation of a mixture of amphetamine salts. It's like the difference between Ritalin and Adderall, which are the immediate-release forms. Both drugs are stimulants, usually prescribed for ADD/ADHD. Methylphenidate is said to not be as strong a stimulant as amphetamine, but is still controlled as tightly.
Can you tell the difference between Vyvanse and Concerta in a drug test
Blues 10mg/Orange 20mg
There are no similarities between Concerta and Hydrocodone. Concerta, is used for ADHD, and is a stimulant. Hydrocodone is an opiate pain reliever, used for moderate to severe pain.
There are only 2 possible difference, being price and inactive ingredients. The tablets will still contain the 1/4 dextroamphetamine saccharate, 1/4 dextroamphetamine sulfate, and 1/2 racemic mixture of two amphetamine salts (aspartate and sulfate, I believe) at concentrations identical to that of brand name Adderall as regulated by the FDA. I've taken both the brand name and generic Adderall before and did not experience any difference in quality.
There are no known drug interactions between Adderall and Mirena.
My Son has tourettes and tics, but both have been very minimal in the past few years. He feels he needs something to help his ADHD so his Neurologist (World Renoun) has prescribed 18mg of Concerta. I'm confused, as the warnings specify "not to be used with patients having touretts & tics.
There are no known interactions between Concerta (a long-acting methylphenidate/Ritalin type compound) and birth control pills. However, idiosyncratic reactions are always possible. Consult with your physician, if you have any concerns, in your particular case.
1 30mg capsule = 6 5mg capsules. The only difference is the amount of beads inside the capsules, the chemical make-up and concentration of the individual beads is identical.
They are considered by the FDA to be equivalent. It's just generic rather than brand name. I have ADD and take the D-Amphetamine salt combo 20mg's. Some other users I know claim that they have had different experiences with different manufacturers, like brand-name is the best, Shire is best, Barr is best, etc. I've gotten all different manufacturers and never noticed a difference, personally. I kinda like the 20mg Corepharma's I get from Walgreens better than the Barr's I get from CVS because the Corepharmas are easier to break into 5s, whereas the Barr only has cuts for cutting it in half (10s).
yes, adderall rx and vyvanse have mainly the same components, so the drug test should not be able to show a difference between the two substances.
