After trying Vyvanse and Adderall my doctor recommended this newer drug. In short, this is the drug for me. Helps me focus without the side effects of the others. I suppose everyone reacts different. Just glad I found this one.

Was prescribed Evekeo recently, and had a tough time finding a pharmacy that had it, as well as geting insurance to cover it. Pharmacy locator was helpful, but due to cost (even with coupon from doctor), I am likely going to go back to original medication (Adderall Tablet).

I am extremely happy with Evekeo. There are no roller coaster ups and downs that I had with Adderall, a much smoother transition. The results/effect seem to last longer without the hyper-focus of Adderall. I was on Adderall and my VA doctor took me off it completely and said I didn't need it.

I am extremely happy with Evekeo. There are no roller coaster ups and downs that I had with Adderall, a much smoother transition. The results/effect seem to last longer without the hyper-focus of Adderall. I was on Adderall and my VA doctor took me off it completely and said I didn't need it. I was getting in trouble at work for lack of attention to detail, forgetting to pay bills, etc. I went to another doctor, she suggested I try Evekeo. The pharmacy through a communication error and had me on just one 10mg pill a day instead of three, for 3 weeks. I had a follow up was put on three 10mg pills a day(2 @ 8a, 1 @ 1p), and allowed to play around with times taken and could go up to 4 a day. It was a completely experience from Adderall or the 10 mg Evekeo. Adderall was more like a light switch being flipped on then off as the medication wore off. Evekeo was a lot smoother, I never really feel it kick in or turn off, it is just kind of there. It is more like being more effective, less effective. Even when the medication should have worn off, I don't feel as scattered or spacey. With Adderall I would often get these episodes of hyper-focus where I had a hard time switching tasks. So far with Evekeo I have never had those episodes. I work retail, and I am constantly changing focus from customers to task and back. I currently take three 10mg a day but the doctor wrote the script for 105. On longer days where I am up at 7a have to be to work at 1p and work until 9p. If I have taken one pill around 1 or 2p I can feel myself becoming less focused around 6-7p. If I take 2 around 1-2p it will last until around 8:30-9p, which is perfect. I also found that I can't take it later than 3p, I can't get to sleep before midnight-1a. Taking the last pill no later than 1:30p, I can get to sleep by 11p.

Failed 4 different add meds. By far the best. Just wish they had higher strengths. I take it 15mg 2 times daily and even though the tablets are easy to break.. It's annoying. I feel the best on this one though for sure. No side effects and takes care of my add.

The physical side effects outweigh any of the mental benefits, which pale in comparison to Dexedrine. Where do I begin, evekeo makes me jittery, anxious, and feel just plain weird. I know what amphetamines should feel like, when I heard 50% levo I pretty much knew what to expect but figured what the heck, its only for a month.

The physical side effects outweigh any of the mental benefits, which pale in comparison to Dexedrine. Where do I begin, evekeo makes me jittery, anxious, and feel just plain weird. I know what amphetamines should feel like, when I heard 50% levo I pretty much knew what to expect but figured what the heck, its only for a month. After having been on Dexedrine and adderall for the past 3 years, and now Evekeo. I can fairly say that the levo side of amphetamines is not only inferior it also has far more side effects. This is somewhat of a known fact in the medical community. Amphetamines are either dexdro or levo or some of both. Dexdro tends to be more cerebral and calming while levo tends to be more physical and distruptive, by distruptive I mean your heart will let you know pretty quickly. Dexedrine is 100% of the dexdro side of amphetamines, Adderall is 75/25, and Evekeo is 50/50. I know that everyone's treatment is personal, so I'll speak for myself as only I can. Dexedrine is by far the superior product, Adderall comes in second because it only has 25% levo. Evekeo lags behind with its whopping 50% of levo induced jitters, palpitations and tweakiness. When my doc told my they have something new thats 50/50, I was like, you mean benzedrine, yah thats not new. Kinda like when he tried to tout zenzedi as the new cool kid on the block, I was like you mean rebranded dexadrine. I'll take my generic thanks. I had my doubts about evekeo but wanted to give it a fair shot. Having had dexedrine before I know that there's way better treatment out there.
