Yes, : Yes, they are the same thing. Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) is just the brand name for d-amphetamine salts. They should both work the same way.

They are the same: Adderal is a brand-name and the chemical (or generic) name is mixed amphetamine salts. The right person to ask is the pharmacist -they know all about this kind of thing.

Generic: What your received was a generic equivalent o Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) XR. While it is supposed to be a direct equivalent of the Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) XR, Generics are able to contain 80 to 120% of the parent compound. You need to see how your son responds. Other difference may effect the absorption of the generic. Occassionally a person may need an adjustment in the generic dose, usually a slight upwar change in dose.
