Adderall is a drug that has been used to treat patients with Attention Deficit Disorder. Due to safety concerns, replacement drugs are worthy of consideration. Atomoxetine (Strattera)is a drug that is used when Adderall is not of best interests to the patient. Also, Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is another replacement drug used.

As Adderall is a psychostimulant, a number of drugs with stimulant properties have been used in place of Adderall specifically. The amphetamine methylphenidate (marketed as Ritalin, Metadate, Concerta) and dextroamphetamine (marketed as Dexedrine) are the most common substitutions to treat AHDH.
