Dexedrine generic name?

What is Dexedrine’s generic name?

Dexedrine is the brand name for dextroamphetamine.

Is it the same as dextroamphetamine sulfate?

Dexedrine products are typically listed as dextroamphetamine (often as dextroamphetamine sulfate, depending on the specific formulation). The active ingredient is dextroamphetamine.

What generic products might show up at the pharmacy?

You may see labels using the active ingredient name dextroamphetamine rather than “Dexedrine,” since generic substitutions are usually based on the drug substance (dextroamphetamine) and the dosage form.

Are there other “Dexedrine-like” generics?

Some related products are amphetamine mixed salts (a different formulation than Dexedrine/dextroamphetamine). That’s why the label typically matters: the generic name tells you whether you’re getting dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) versus another amphetamine product.
