Vyvanse is like long acting adderall that cannot be crushed and snorted. Must be metabolized in your digestion to become active.

It's always extremely weird to me when people have to make this distinction because I was under the impression that ALL Adderall prescriptions are for the XR extended release which comes in capsules full of small beads of medication. No one should be taking Adderall IR instant release tablets. Those things have almost no reason to exist. I really don't understand who is taking those things and where people are getting the impression that IR tablets are a normal Adderall formulation. "Long acting" Adderall has been the norm for decades now and I haven't even seen or heard of anyone taking IR tablets since like the early 2000's
I was given a prescription for XR. It took me a month or more to even try it, because I’d sleep in, then it would take me a while to get moving, and by that time I was worried it would still be active with the idealist it me would think I should go to bed. Something that didn’t last as long would give me much more control.
The XR mechanism is shit compared how vyvanse and concerts manage theirs.
If you’re a slow metaboliser you end up getting a big overlap around 3hours in which can be quite unpleasant, hence the non XR compound
Not to be confused with "Adderall XR", which like Vyvanse is meant for slower and longer release than normal Adderall.
At least for me, Vyvanse is much more tolerable than Adderall XR.
Thank you. Will ask my doctor.
