For ADHD "Because of the Adderall shortage, I was recently switched to Adzenys, and I’m not a huge fan of it. I guess it somewhat works, but for the most part, it just makes my stomach hurt and makes me feel insane. My mood swings on this medication are horrible. I’ve never had mood swings before (unless I’m on my lady days), and it’s terrible. I never had a problem with going to sleep on Adderall, but this medication keeps me up at night. I have pretty bad anxiety, and this medication makes it a million times worse. Other than the side effects, the drug works fine, but it’s hard to focus with all of the side effects."

For ADHD "Recently, I switched from taking Adderall to Vyvanse and then to Adzenys. I have been taking short-acting Adderall tablets on and off for the past twenty years, twice a day. I tried Vyvanse hoping that it would last longer during the day, up to twelve hours. Unfortunately, I experienced terrible side effects, such as mood swings, insomnia, and zero focus. I tried doses ranging from 40-70mg and spent six months on it, only to switch to Adzenys. I started taking Adzenys last month, and it is more like Adderall. It provides a mellow focus and does not cause additional anxiety. However, it only lasts for about six to eight hours, and my doctor is hesitant to prescribe it twice a day. We are increasing the dose this month, and I hope it is more effective. The packaging is inconvenient, but the medication works, and the carry case is nice and fits in my locked bag for safety. The easy-to-take tabs are definitely a hazard around children because they look like candy or something. However, if you are responsible for your medications and keep them locked up for safety, it should not be a problem. The pharmacy takes a long time to restock it as well."

For ADHD "15.0, then increased to 17.5 (I believe that’s the correct dosage, I know it’s 15 to 17)... Anyway, didn’t know I was so ADHD until I went off of it. ROCKY to transition onto the med—extremely emotional, but my God, I had an issue filling the script one day. I didn’t realize how inefficient I was before. I kept losing everything, it was so bad. Changed my life. After adjusting, I have had no problems."
