Hi, scoomah!
"Adderall:
Common (1% to 10% of users): Somnolence, dizziness, twitching, speech disorder (e.g., stuttering, excessive speech)
Frequency not reported: Overstimulation, paresthesia/formication, dyskinesia, tremor, exacerbation of motor/phonic tics and Tourette's syndrome"
"Ritalin:
"Very common (10% or more of users): Nervous system disorders (23.5%), headache (23.2%)
Common (1% to 10% of users): Dizziness, dyskinesia, tremor, drowsiness, feeling jittery, psychomotor hyperactivity, somnolence, vertigo, paresthesia, motion sickness, tension headache"
It seems that the chances are pretty much the same with both medications. You might want to get professional advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Best regards,
