In reply to Dextrostat is sold as a generic, posted by utopizen on July 24, 2003, at 14:16:13
I switched from brand name dexedrine-ir tablets to generic dexedrine spansules (bottle says Dextroamphet sr). This geneic is made by BARR, I have to say I really like the generic dexedrine spansules (dextroamphet sr) alot more than the name brand immediate release, it lasts all day long for me, and is really smooth. In fact I can't even tell when they are kicking in or wearing off, I can just concentrate throughout the whole day by just taking 3 10mg spansules when I wake up and 3 more 10mg spansules between 12 and 2 in the afternoon. This is far more effective for me than the name brand dexedrine-ir 5mg tablets. So here is my case, I find that the generic dexedrine spansules (dextroamphet sr) are not inferior to the name brand for me. I hope this helps anyone who is thinking about just not using the generic, becasue the generic is much much cheaper and works wonderful for me. I payed $15 for name brand dexedrine-ir 5mg qty. 90 and I payed $5.35 for generic dexedrine spansules 10mg qty. 90(dextroamphet sr), which is a huge difference. Keep in mind though I have Blue-Cross Blue-Sheild Anthem insurance. My suggestion is to try the generic, it saved me $10 every time I get it filled.
