Methamphetamine is weaker than amphetamine on a weight basis. I.e., 5 mg of meth is significantly weaker than 5 mg amphetamine/dexedrine (or even adderall).
I don't have ADD, but I have used meth (good quality, but not legally obtained) for studying (so, no recreational effects really -- just keep me up and help me focus), and I would imagine that 20 mg of desoxyn (pure meth) would be the absolute minimum dose (equivalent to 5 mg dexedrine).
Meth has fewer side effects and lasts a lot longer. It is also a more powerful stimulant -- helps focusing more, but you must be careful with dosage, because if you go into the recreational range, it's too fun to concentrate on work.
Good luck!
> Desoxyn is better. It is meth, legal. That's why it's schedule II- and why having any meth of any kind is very severe unless it's with a prescription. Cocaine is schedule II, too. You can have it if you have a prescription for it-- it's used as a topic anaesthetic.
