Thanks, Bill. For me, there is a big difference. First, one just isn't enough...I've been taking 1 1/2 3 times a day. Secondly, I don't 'kick-in' as soon, and thirdly, my ON times aren't as long and not as productive. I just don't feel free like on do on the original drug. Thanks for sharing, though.
