I take 10mgIR in the morning and 10mgIR in the afternoon. There is appetite suppression, but not bad. The strangest side effect is sleeping in on the weekends--before Adderall, I hadn't been able to sleep past 7 for many years. Now, I can easily sleep until noon. There are much worse side effects, but it's bit annoying to waste a good portion of my day off sleeping.
I assume you're not taking it at a "normal" time on the weekend (like morning time during the week)?
I would if I were awake, but nope... ๐ It's not a normal sleep, I just don't wake up. I usually take a dose in the afternoon, though.
