Methylphenidate health effects vs. Amphetamine health effects

Swim is fairly happy with Ritalin because it remedies his problem of daytime drowsiness and improves his concentration span but he's wondering if its really worth taking Ritalin when he could be prescribed Adderall.

Are the health consequences associated with Adderall greater than those of Ritalin? In swims case the mental effects of amps beat those of methyphenidate 10 fold. The positive effects of Ritalin are mild whereas the positive effects of amphetamines are extreme. If swim takes a high dose of Ritalin the negative after effects outweigh the positive effects in duration by about 4 hours and in intensity by about 3 times. Amps on the other hand the ratio favors the positive effects.

Back to the initial question. Are amphetamines worse for your health than methylphenidate?
