Answer 1

It looks like one is XR and the first one is regular Adderall (which is generic now so they will vary from maker to maker)

Answer 2

The difference between the two are regular and extended-release. If you were on the regular and you switch to the extended-release, the most obvious thing you'll notice is a less frequent dose, typically once per day, instead of multiple doses. You'll have to ask your doctor or pharmacist about any change in side effects. (Personally I wouldn't think there'd be a difference).
