" I have been on more than one ADD med and I can tell you this one works the best. Lasts for 12 hours, not let down like Adderall and there are not feelings of being rushed up.

It's changed my life, I was able to go back to work part time. Before this, I was a bi-polar mess. "

" I was just prescribed it. 30 mg once a day. It helps me focus, and helps me feel better about myself. Not sure how long in my system, but will write more once I get to know it. "
