XR as “booster” instead of IR

Hello, recently I started on Adderall again after years of not being on it and trying non-narcotic medications (nuvigil, strattera, Wellbutrin)

I’m trying to find the right combo. I’ve been taking 20 XR in morning and 10mg IR in evening.

The problem I’ve been having is the XR doesn’t seem to touch morning fatigue and it doesn’t seem to last more than 8 hours. I take at around 8-9 am and need a booster by 2pm to actually get any work done.

Today I switched them around because I need to last through dinner, bath, bedtimefor my toddler and “closing shift” at the house

I know the XR is supposed to release 50% and then the rest later but I just don’t ever feel the meds start working at all until I take my IR.

I also take famotadine for antacid (and PMDD). I’d also like to mention I’m on Effexor, Latuda and klonopin (I recently had a still born baby and I am diagnosed bipolar) all in the evening around 8-9pm along with my birth control and melatonin for sleep

Please tell me what you think of this and any knowledge your doctors or other fellow adhd-ers have shared
