"I have had ADD my entire life (I'm 30), starting treatment with Dexedrine in kindergarten. I've tried literally every ADD drug there is except Zenzedi and Desoxyn (methamphetamine HCL). I've even tried modafinil. Chemically, Vyvanse, Dexedrine, and Zenzedi are the same, just with different absorption. Adderall is 80% Dexedrine with 20% levoamphetamine, which is more physically stimulating than dextroamphetamine. If you are like me and hate stimulants because of the crash at night and morning exhaustion, I need a drug that lasts all day and is smooth, then consider Mydayis. I only wrote this to help anyone who's considering Mydayis. I would never waste my time helping any pharmaceutical company with a review. Mydayis is unique and different from Adderall and the other dextroamphetamine stimulants because it has amphetamine in addition to other Dex salts. Give it a try. If you have trouble with insomnia from taking it, then your dose is too high. Just drop it. Good luck."

"I was put on Mydayis, and for six months, I absolutely loved it. It worked so well. At the time, I had a coupon, so after the coupon expired, even with insurance it is way too expensive every month, so I had to switch. I would have been a loyal customer too, but Mydayis is just way, way too expensive! I don’t understand why you make a drug, and it works for people, but everyday people can’t afford it, even with insurance."

"I have been taking Mydayis 25mg for 2 months, and I have experienced ZERO negative side effects. I was previously prescribed Adderall XR & IR and Vyvanse. Those medications were somewhat effective; however, they came with a lot of side effects (loss of appetite, moodiness, insomnia, heart palpitations, dry mouth, dry skin, and anxiousness). The best thing about Mydayis is the way in which it feels 'natural' and the way it steadily tapers off throughout the day. With previous medications, I could actually feel the effects coming and going and I would get these sensations of feeling 'high.' With Mydayis, I never actually FEEL the medication taking effect, but I can tell a HUGE difference in my performance, mood, and ability to focus. I even feel relaxed, as if my mind can finally make sense of racing thoughts and feelings. I usually take my medication around 8 AM and I am easily able to fall asleep by 11 PM. With Mydayis, My Day Is manageable!"

"I've only been taking it for 3 days, but I can understand now when people say they feel it running in the background. So far, no side effects other than appetite loss. I do feel energy from this, but not like Adderall, there's no anxiety tied to the energy. It's more like motivation than energy. One thing I've noticed is that I like to always be doing something productive in some way. It's not the type of energy you get and use to dance or work out, you feel driven to get things done. It lasts for the whole 16 hours, which surprised me, I'm an ultra-rapid metabolizer. I have no crash on this like I did with Adderall. I'm just waiting for my period now to see how the cramps are and giving the medicine more time to see if I do have any side effects. So far, none, but no appetite."

"I am diagnosed with Concurrent Concussion Syndrome with ADD symptoms. I took Vyvanse for over a year, and I thought I loved it, until I realized it gave me anxiety because I was trying to cram 16 hours' worth of homework and chores into the short period of time the medication worked. My neurologist had me switch to taking Mydayis, and I have loved it because I do not feel the 'high' that Vyvanse gives you, and in turn, I also do not feel the medication slowing down either. Now, I still take it at 5:30 am, but I can do homework or concentrate on other tasks well past 8 or 9 pm. Advantages: - long-lasting - continuous feeling throughout the day (no ups and downs) Disadvantages: - makes me not feel hungry - loss of appetite can make low blood sugar hit me all at once if I forget to eat - if I sleep in on the weekends, I can't take it because it will last too long. Hope my experience helps! I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for longer-lasting stimulants, but I know that everyone reacts to things differently, so it might not work for you."

"I've tried several ADHD meds, and Mydayis has definitely been the best for me. I'm on the lowest dose, and it starts working 20-30 minutes after I take it. I'm then able to be productive and direct my focus easily, compared to other meds (e.g., Adderall), which gave me a burst of intense focus that I had no control over. The transitions are barely noticeable, and it really helps maintain consistent energy levels. After wearing off, it's a very natural 'I've worked all day, and now I'm ready to relax before bed' feeling (no crash). I also noticed it significantly helps manage my depression-something no other ADHD med has done. The only downsides: (1) it does reduce my appetite a lot, and (2) it only lasts about 9-10 hours on my current dose (12.5 mg), but higher doses (25 mg+) give me headaches. It's not perfect, but the positives definitely outweigh the negatives for me. Lastly, you don't know how it'll affect you, so don't let reviews scare you away if you/your doc think it might help."

"I have suffered my entire life with ADD. For a while, Adderall helped. Then, as I turned 49, it seemed to make me more anxious, irritable, short-tempered, and I had no patience for stupidity! Upon trying Mydayis, I was immediately impressed. I was finishing projects, getting things done right, and able to focus for longer durations of time-long enough to complete tasks at hand. I feel so much better."

"I started on Vyvanse about 10 years ago. Eventually, I was taking 70 mg in the morning and 50 mg in the afternoon. I have a pretty hard time with tolerance issues, which led me to abuse the Vyvanse. This led me to switch to Adderall IR twice daily. Still didn’t fix the problem. I asked my psychiatrist about Mydayis, and I can tell you it has an effect all day (definitely more than Adderall XR and Vyvanse). It gives you a more calming feeling, while Adderall caused anxiety, and I felt I needed Valium. My psychiatrist doesn’t mess around, and since I’ve been taking amphetamines for years, he put me right on the highest dose, 50 mg. So far, so good..."

"I was taking Adderall 20 mg twice a day. It made me anxious and almost paranoid at times. I had extreme highs and extreme lows, but I could focus. I have been on Mydayis for a week now, and I do not have the anxiety I had with Adderall, and I am not super hyperfocused and chatty like I was on Adderall. Mydayis feels more natural, if that makes sense. I feel more like myself now, and even my boyfriend said he notices a change. A good change. Also, I had a bit of sexual blah and found it difficult to be 'happy,' and Mydayis gave me my groove back. I can easily fall asleep, but I noticed if I don't lay down and settle, I can stay up. I can definitely fall asleep on it. I like it. I think it depends on the person. I myself don't like feeling like I am bouncing off the walls, and Mydayis doesn't make me feel that way, but I am more organized and productive. Worth a try to see if it works for you. Feels healthier."

"To all the people saying this is rubbish and to use Adderall XR instead, this IS Adderall XR. It's literally made by the same company and contains the same ingredients. It's just a triple layer release whereas Adderall XR is double layer. If you do not feel the effects of Mydayis but do feel Adderall XR, it's because of your own negative expectations and placebo. That's all."

"I've finally found it. Mydayis, it is that little reminder I never had; the missing piece of my conscience that was never there before to tell me 'stop mucking and go do the stuff you should be getting on with.'"

"I love Mydayis. It's been the best medication for ADHD I've tried so far. It lasts pretty much all day as long as I keep my blood sugar up (which is hard because it kills my appetite), and it is very effective. It gives a lower, more prolonged peak than straight Adderall and doesn't have as many side effects. The biggest downside is that it is extremely expensive, insurance doesn't cover it, and the 2019 coupon doesn't cover as much as the 2018 one."

"I asked my doctor about Mydayis because it lasts 16 hours. The first week I was so calm, never been so calm in my life, even with antidepressants. I was able to focus during conversations. I organized my desk (a little). Cleaned my car out (a little). My second week I was still focusing, but I couldn't eat. I was repulsed by anything other than fruits, vegetables, cereal. But then I felt dizzy... sick to my stomach. My eyes seem to move involuntarily (nystagmus), and I got the worst eye strain I've ever had. My neck muscles felt extremely tight, and I just kept massaging my neck, trying not to panic. I tried to tough it out for the next 2 days but could not. It's been 2 days since I quit taking it, and my eyes are still involuntarily moving a little. I had big hopes for this med, but this is how it worked for me, and I was only taking 12.5 mg. I just needed to let everyone know about this possibility because I couldn't find any info about it. It would probably be considered a tic."

"My experience with Mydayis has been amazing! I am 50 years old and have been taking Mydayis for 2 years. I was diagnosed at the age of 35. After years of trying just about every kind of ADHD medication (stimulants and nonstimulants), my doctor prescribed me Mydayis. It doesn't impact my sleep, nor my desire to eat. It also doesn't have a 'dip' when waiting for the extended release to kick in. Now suddenly it is no longer covered under the insurance plan. It is ridiculous! Will most definitely cost the insurance more money as I will have to go to several doctor appointments and once again try several different types of medications to help me focus. Maybe even some therapy sessions to help with the anxiety. In addition, I never received any notification that this medication was no longer covered."

"I’ve been on Vyvanse 40-60 mg for 8 years, and it was no longer effective, so I asked my doctor to switch me to Mydayis 50 mg. It took me a few weeks to fully adjust to the medication, but once I was used to it, there was a big difference, and the meds worked the way Vyvanse worked for me when I first started using it. I was actually able to complete tasks, stay organized, and study for school again. Like Vyvanse, and unlike Adderall IR (which I've also tried), Mydayis doesn’t have any noticeable kick or come down for me and doesn’t give me a super dry mouth either. I try to stay hydrated while on Mydayis, even though I won’t feel like drinking, because I notice a difference in effect when I’m hydrated vs. dehydrated. It doesn’t keep me up late at night and lasts throughout the day. I feel the most composed too on Mydayis in terms of being emotionally regulated and am able to judge my options instead of acting impulsively. It’s the best long-acting med I’ve tried!"

"Mydayis is truly life-changing. It provides consistent and even focus throughout my long days at work. No highs and lows in my attention to detail and focus at accomplishing my daily tasks. I hated the highs and lows associated with taking the instant release and the relatively short total duration of effectiveness of extended release. It’s NOT for someone looking for big energy boosts but for ADULTS who struggle daily with focus, attention, and productivity. One capsule each day is all it takes to truly give you the life you’ve been missing. Absolutely amazing!"

"I change meds frequently because I build tolerance really fast. Almost every year I switch, and most recently switched from Adderall XR 60 mg + IR 30 mg booster to 62.5 mg Mydayis. I LOVE this medication. It runs in the background, so I feel almost no anxiety anymore- it's not nearly as aggressive. I even stopped needing my anxiety meds. I like to take my pills around 7-7:30, then go back to sleep 'til 9:30 or so. It is perfect timing for my days. And you don't have to eat when you take these, so it's possible to just roll over and go back to sleep 'til it's time for breakfast."

"I’ve been on Mydayis @37.5 mg for a year now, and I really liked this med over the others I’d taken. Before Mydayis, I tried Vyvanse, Focalin, and Concerta, and while all of them caused decreased appetite and weight loss, Mydayis never makes me crash or feel anxious, so it’s the best one so far. It gives me a big boost of energy, and I can get a lot of work done (a little obsessively, but still). Warning though, the withdrawal symptoms for me are god awful. If I miss a dose, I will sleep non-stop (multiple 3+ hour naps throughout the day) and eat just about anything in sight. Generally though, Mydayis has been a very good fit for me, and I wouldn’t be able to keep up academically without it. I know a lot of people don’t do well on this ADHD med, and it definitely isn’t for everyone, but I really would try it if you’re struggling to find a good fit! Kicks in very fast and lasts all day."

"I first was recommended Vyvanse, and it worked well for about 2.5 years, but it did not last for 16 hours as I needed to have energy and focus for work until 10 PM. I dislike taking the powder at a different time during the day. My doctor recommended Adderall XR for 1.5 years, which allowed me a pill form that I could break up. That is when I learned about Mydayis, and because my day starts at 6 AM and goes until 10 PM, I felt this would be ideal for me. Honestly, I read the message board and got scared because of all the wild side effects mentioned. None of those things happened to me. Same side effects as the other two for me, but Mydayis allows me to take one pill that lasts 16 hours and has improved my focus, energy, and moods. I used to talk too much when my previous pills were at their peak, but I am less apt to do that now. I feel both pills worked very well, just Mydayis works better. I am unsure why, it just does. I get Mydayis free until January 1, 2019."

"I tried Mydayis as a substitute during the Adderall shortage, as it has become nearly impossible to refill my medication without stress and a complete meltdown lasting for days. I went from 60 mg of Adderall, or combined-type ADHD, to 50 mg of Mydayis. I have never taken a more ineffective ADHD medication. I was so disappointed. I thought this would be a good fit because Adderall XR and the other Adderall work wonders for me. I could tell no difference between not taking my medication and taking Mydayis. The FDA and DEA need to address the Adderall shortage by making more Adderall because these other substances are utterly ineffective at treating ADHD."

"Mydayis 50mg has worked great for me. It did take a week or so for me to notice any real benefits. The first day, I was a bit on edge. Then, I was slightly depressed for about a week. It wasn’t major depression, just a general “down” feeling. After the second week, I have seemed more focused. My energy and motivation seem to be increasing slightly. This drug has a very smooth transition. I don't crash or have periods of high heart rates and anxiety. I was on Adderall 30mg previously. I also have tried Vyvanse and Concerta in the past with poor results."

"I switched from Adderall to Vyvanse, then back to Adderall because the Vyvanse was too expensive, then switched to Mydayis. I'm glad other people are also saying what I'm feeling. Takes about three hours to notice anything. First, I start sweating a lot, with some slight chest pain. Do not feel motivated or focused, actually the opposite. Mydayis is making me scatterbrained and depressed. I was in a good place before I started with this medication. Hopefully, I can get back to good mental health when I stop."

"This is my first time going on anything. At 45, I have finally admitted I have an issue focusing. I am the person with a million ideas that starts everything and never finishes anything. My therapist prescribed me Mydayis 50 mg. Started at 25, then upped to 50. It immediately changed my life. I am so focused and get so much done. Not just at work, but around the house. I can work until 10 and go to sleep or work until 3 a.m. if I choose. It's been wonderful for the 6 months I've been on it. I have never tried anything else, but last time I visited my therapist a few days ago, she asked me if it made me moody and irritable, and I said no, it puts me in a good mood and works all day. She said she was going to switch from Adderall to Mydayis, lol. I hope everyone finds the right combination or dosage because this has completely changed my life, my marriage, and my respect from peers at the office."

"I started taking Mydayis 25 mg 5 days ago, and I really like it so far. I was on Vyvanse for the last 3 years and eventually built up a tolerance to it. I like how Mydayis doesn't give me that 'nervous, heart-racing' feeling like Adderall and some of the other drugs do. It's not going to give you an intense rush but provides a steady, long-lasting feeling of alertness and focus. It doesn't affect my appetite, sleep, or mood."

"I absolutely love Mydayis. Well into my second month taking it and it’s awesome. It’s changed and helped in ways that are a perfect balance. It calms my thoughts where I don’t feel like a mad person in my own head. Like not just to focus on one to-do but to finish it and to keep my mind from straying too much on everything around me. And I hardly ever had a complete thought about anything. It was constant chaos. My doctor suggested Mydayis because it has three time-released capsules without the extreme highs and lows like Adderall. And you don’t have to take it all day. Just once, and I never feel a crash or depression from a sudden down of drugs in my system because of the three-release thing. The only time I can really tell I’ve taken it is in the morning. It takes about an hour to kick in for me. And I feel super productive on task and efficient. All things that I had to work 200% harder in order to have the same result."
