Answer 1

Adderall is a central nervous system stimulant and so is meth. They're not exactly the same thing, but they're both powerful stimulants.

Answer 2

Addreall is amphetatmine and dextroamphetamine.  It can be an addictive medication.  It is in the same class as methamphetamine, but is a different drug.  If you look up structres of the drugs you will see they are similar molecules.
