What is the difference between Dextroamphetamine and Adderall?

Dextroamphetamine and Adderall are both medicines that belong to the psychostimulants group. These medicines are used to administer narcolepsy, which is an abnormality of the sleep-wake cycle, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). These medicines help to increase attention span and promote wakefulness, and they should not be taken until there is proper medical consultation. Dextroamphetamine can be used alone or in combination with other drugs to fight ADHD and narcolepsy. It acts on the central nervous system by having an effect on some brain chemicals so as to produce alertness.

This drug also helps in reducing fatigue when taken, and it has been a well-used medicine among the Air Forces and military when going on missions. It also helps in curing mental retardation disorder, stroke, developmental disabilities, and depression. On the other hand, Adderall is a medicine that contains 75% dextroamphetamine and 25% levoamphetamine. It works better in controlling restlessness, promoting mental alertness, and wakefulness.
