So I know Concerta is a much more controlled dosing, and apparently Vyvanse is engineered to be similar.
But instead I have to take one extended release Adderall in the morning and remember to take an immediate release in the afternoon.
I like your suggestion of an an insulin like pump. It would probably have to be hardware programmed with no external way to interface with it to prevent people from hacking it and dumping the whole dose in their body.

Good news, actual insulin pumps are already a proprietary nightmare! 🤗
Jokes aside, this sort of thinking about folks with ADHD is super harmful. Neurotypical people would love to do that, but folks with ADHD just want their brain to work normally. There’s nothing stopping us from taking all our short-acting meds at once either, apart from the fact it would fluffing suck!

I am very aware of that. I design systems in the environment they intend to live in.
As much as I don’t like it, we live in a world controlled by nuerotypicals and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
Should that environment change then I can design for that environment. Otherwise I end up with a product that is useful but not usable.
