Finally got Medikinet to last longer than 3 hours

ADHD Medication

Im on 60mg currently and really liked the 50% IR component of it as it is single handledly the only thing getting me out of bed and endure my long commute. However by 11am I’ll be hardcore crashing and fatigued. I realised I’m not eating enough (well nothing actually until lunchtime) so I had 2 protein bars that I ate on the train, a smoothie I sipped throughout the day and a proper filling meal for lunch and I still had enough energy for my afternoon clinic (3pm) so I increased its longevity by 4 hours!

I feel great knowing I’m getting the full potential of medikient but I feel sick eating that much and I have never been breakfast person so trust me I was gnawing through those bars with disgust. I just don’t know if it’s worth eating this much to get the same effect with another tablet that is low maintenance?
