They are both amphetamines and have similar qualities used for weight management and attention defecit disorder among other things. I'm not a big fan of amphetamines at all. In fact I hate both drugs totally, but there are medicinal values to each of the medications however small. Both medications have good points for the right people. They are both so often used and abused by so many people though that I think they are some of the most overly prescribed medications on the market today. I wish you the best of luck. God bless.
