... Adderall IR 30 mg 2 times a day and I asked my doctor to switch me to XR. When he did so he prescribed me 30 mg XR one time a day and it isnt working very well. If i understand from my recent research, this is not equivalent to 30 mg IR two times a day... my new dose should be 60 mg XR one time a day... correct???
Adderall IR 30 mg 2 times a day is equivalent to how much Adderall XR? For many years I was taking?

I’m new here but I’m having the same problem and since I haven’t figured out how to ask a question yet if I can I’ll ask here since adderall is on manufacture back order should I get adderall replaced with Ritalin

No. The reason you're getting 60 of the ir is because it leaves your body and you have to replace it. He might raise it but there is a chance that this will be enough for you.

Individualize the dosage according to the therapeutic needs and response of the patient. Administer Adderall XR at the lowest effective dosage.
Based on bioequivalence data, patients taking divided doses of immediate-release ADDERALL, (for example, twice daily), may be switched to Adderall XR at the same total daily dose taken once daily. Titrate at weekly intervals to appropriate efficacy and tolerability as indicated.
I took this directly from drugs.com
