I went back on Adderall XR after being off of it for about 6 months. Although I had previously taken 40mg daily, I only asked my new p-doc for 30mg. Well, it wasn't quite cutting it by mid afternoon on most days, so he prescribed 10mg regular Adderall to take after lunch.Although that seemed like a good solution, I found the 10mg too enervating and after a month or so, I asked the doc if would prescribe 40mg XR and eliminate the 10mg regular. He agreed and 40mg XR works pretty well for me, at least for now. In retrospect, if I had divided the 10mg pill and taken half about 1 PM and half about 3 PM, it may worked better for me, so give it a shot.
