smoking list women Mostly. Amphetamine (labled on the bottle as mixed amhetamine salts.) is the generic alternative, so its cheaper, and adderall is a patented extended release form of amphetamine. ive been prescribed both, and they have pretty much the same feel. adderall is a little less intesnse, but the effect lasts longer. even when you have ADD it makes you better at pretty much everything other than sleeping, and godlike at video games.
