IS 10 mg's of Adderall the same as 27mg's of Concerta??

I don't think so. I would definitely ask a pharmacist about this if you need an accurate answer. Our son just switched from Concerta to Adderall. 20 mg. of Adderall is proving comparable to 72 mg. of Concerta. However, I don't know that you can make calculations based on this.

my psychiatrist told me that 27 mg of concerta was equivalent to 10 mgs of adderall. I was taking 27mg concerta but he has switched me to 10 mgs of adderall and it seems to be more potent.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
