Adderall or Vyvanse? Why switch? Why not? Legit inquiry please dont downvote to smithereens.

Yeah they just convert different to dextroamphetamine once consumed.

I didn't realize the pharma companies were like Johnnie Cochran during the OJ trial.... Just pitching one side that makes one seem so bad and makes you completely forget about the truth and focus on just the negatives what they are spewing. Damn Johnnie Cochran...

So sidebar... is this the reason why my doctor ... for almost 2 years now.. is constantly trying to get me to go on blood pressure medications? He gets a bump from the pharma company every time he prescribes it?

The highest my blood pressure has been was 131/73... right after I got done chewing out an employee of mine so I was all riled up anyway.

Every other time its 124/77, 121/74, 117/75 etc... all the nurses comment how good it is... hell I know whats good and whats bad. No blood pressure issues in family history, I have literally 0 health issues besides the adhd. 0 issues my entire life either. I just turned 30, extremely active in sports and exercise still. And this dude walks in telling me how high my BP was. Saying it was close to dangerous levels. I was so confused. I even brought up his nurses comments and he said "thats what they are trained to say". LOL. He made me feel like I was harming myself when I said I didn't want it. Literally asks every damn doctor visit if I wanted to get the bp pills a go because I was borderline high BP again. I see him every quarter just for my three scripts of adderall.. damn its frustrating.
