Common Questions and Answers about Adderall and muscle pain

adderall

Avatar n tn Have you done any studies regarding neurotoxicity of adderall and does it affect the motor neurons of the CNS? Are muscle fasciculations a sign of neurotoxicity? I know most fasciculations are benign, but I am worried about the effect that adderall has on the neurons of the body and if it can lead to overstimulation and exhaustion of the neuron. Do you have any knowledge regarding these SPECIFIC issues? Thank You for your time.
Avatar f tn I have now taken 4 doses of vitamin D and I do not feel any better but in fact am experiencing even more tiredness and muscle aches/weakness, as well as some new joint pain that I never had before, and every so often my lower leg bones feel sort of like they're aching. Since I started the birth control pill and the vitamin D around the same time, I'm not sure which, if either, could be the problem. Can 50000 iu Vitamin D cause fatigue and weakness?
Avatar m tn It's been about a month now since this whole thing started, and there are many factors that I think may be relevant. First off, the pain starts on my right side just where the head meets the neck, and radiates forward. I had a sinus infection that I was on antibiotics for - it was focused behind my eyes. I missed a day but finished the last three pills after that - I woke up out of nowhere with a headache radiating from that area, but all the way across the back (not on only one side).
Avatar f tn Overdose symptoms may include restlessness, tremor, muscle twitches, rapid breathing, confusion, hallucinations, panic, aggressiveness, unexplained muscle pain or tenderness, muscle weakness, fever or flu symptoms, and dark colored urine. These symptoms may be followed by depression and tiredness. Other overdose symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, uneven heartbeats, feeling light-headed, fainting, seizure (convulsions), or coma. http://www.drugs.com/adderall.
Avatar n tn I am 18 years old, I am in college taking adderall and I smoke cigarrettes. This may be important about me, I work as a nursing assistant 40hrs a week and have back pain that I see my chiropractor about because my rib clicks when I breathe. What happened was I was with a resident and was standing next to the bed and had two irregular painful heart pumps. It was very strange I was not lifting him at the time and I just had to stop and stand there to figure out what was going on.
Avatar f tn he put me on 800 mg ibuprofen 3 times a day and it helped some but today i did a bit of yard work and im in bad pain and my chest is all tight..i have severe anxiety and depression and am on xanax prozac and just recently adderall.. i can barely concntrate as it hurts so bad and my neck is real bad and mt right ear hurts too........
Avatar m tn I have friends that have taken them both and I have as well but its seems like defeating the puporse you cant feel the suboxone and the adderall just made me crave pain pills for some reason. If you do take them both please be careful and use only when needed.
Avatar n tn I think my boyfriend is addicted and abusing Adderall and Pain Killers? What are the signs?
Avatar f tn Hello, I've actually had this problem for a while now and seems to be related to high doses of amphetamine and/or caffeine (I usually need both when cramming in pharmacy school). Your post caught my eye because my symptoms do not behave like normal GERD or Acid Reflux.
Avatar n tn I have been taking adderall for quite some time and have always felt abnormal side effects specifically with urinating and lower back pain. I spoke to my father and he said that he had prostatitis resulting from adderall. I then looked up prostatits and saw that most of my symptoms related to this condition. My question is, is it possible for the Adderall to cause a case of prostatitis and was it possible for the urethritis to either be caused by the prostatitis or mistaken for it?
Avatar f tn This has only happened the last few nights. I'm 20 years old and I'm the evening will suddenly get very tired, I'll be very dizzy like the room is spinning, noise sensitivity, and extremely confused. I almost feel like I drank too much and have the spins (I have not had a drop of alcohol anytime these episodes occur). Last night when I began to feel this I started to feel light tingling or electricity?
Avatar f tn This list is not complete and there may be other drugs that can interact with Adderall. Tell your doctor about all the prescription and over-the-counter medications you use. This includes vitamins, minerals, herbal products, and drugs prescribed by other doctors. Do not start using a new medication without telling your doctor. I would consult with your pharmacist as they are the expert in how medications react with one another. I would be cautious until I discuss this with him/her.
506259 tn?1228788619 After 3 days, I tried the adderall and like magic - no pain again. Can anyone explain this phenomenon. Did being on adderall for a year and a half create the fibro symptoms after completely off of it, and then after months of physical problems, taking a little relieved the horrible pain? I find nothing on this, and my psychiatrist said it is not typical by any means. However, this, in my personal case, is the honest to god truth.
Avatar f tn I also went to the ER a few nights ago when the pain and muscle weakness was at its worst. Also, been having terrible circulation in my hands and feet lately. Both turn purple...REALLY purple. I sometimes get little red spots on my hands and knees when they turn purple and cold. I was given steroids and started feeling better. Now that I've been completely off the steroids for a few days I've only noticed severe wrist pain and my left arm (from shoulder down) getting numb and tingly.
Avatar m tn i have an upcoming test and was maybe going to take some adderall to help me study. i do not have ADD and am not prescribed adderall. i know it may be harmful but i have done it in the past and i seemed to be fine. i was wondering if maybe taking the adderall while on the antibiotic would be a problem? what health risks would this pose?
Avatar m tn I was a healthy energetic 30yo before I started taking adderall. I discontinued taking it and I did start back on it and it didn't help with my pain, but actually gave me severe headaches and mild seizures. I'm glad it's helping you though. At least you're getting relief from your symptoms someway.
Avatar m tn Is there anyway to reduce this while taking adderall, and what could it be caused by? I was then switched to 18mg Concerta ER and I still get the same side-effects but they are about 85% less severe and last alot shorter 1-2 days max, but doesnt even work for me. Maybe amphetamines are too "strong" for me? I diagnosed with ADD and was prescribed Adderall 20mg XR when I was about 22 years old, and I didn't have a problem at all except slightly dry mouth.
Avatar m tn s one 30mg at 9 in the morning and another at 5 in the evening, of Adderall XR along with 75mg of Effexor XR. I was prescribed the Effexor. About 5 minutes after I took my second capsule of Adderall I started feeling really weird, I thought I was losing my mind. My mind was racing with thoughts, I couldn't concentrate, Muscle spasm's, and fast heart-rate. It feels like everything is going very fast. I couldn't watch TV because I had no idea what they were talking about.
Avatar n tn Do you feel like the Adderall works better? We could stop the Sunosi and have you do the Adderall three times a day. 90mg is typically the max we try to keep the dosing around for Adderall, but accomodations can be made. I'm suspicious if some of the symptoms you are experiencing during the day is related to Cataplexy? This is typically associated with some form of muscle weakness. Not sure if you notice any of those symptoms at all?
Avatar n tn I am currently in medical school and have been taking adderall for some time now and notice that when I am taking in caffeine along with adderall I experience muscle twitching within my arms, legs, and fingers. Previously to my arrival at school, I was checked out by a neurologist who performed a NVC/EMG and said everything was fine.
712802 tn?1274645485 I have been on Cymbalta (30mg 2 X day) for a few weeks (about six) and my doctor gave me some Abilify samples (2mg) to try along with the Cymbalta. I have not been having irrational or psychotic thoughts, but I have been tired a lot. The hope is that the Abilify will give me some energy without side effects. I'm 57 year old male and have been on pain meds for five years due to disc issues, stenosis, severe arthritis, and fibromyalgia.
Avatar f tn Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic widespread pain, muscle aches and pains, chronic fatigue, sleep disturbances and allodynia which is painful response to touch. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibromyalgia Please discuss these possibilities with your physician and keep us posted!
Avatar f tn Yes, in my experience magnesium does help with the negative effects of amphetamines. I take Adderall XR 30mg daily, and I take Magnesium Chelated Aspartate, or Citrate...at night. There are many threads on weather or not Magnesium can potentiate and, alleviate the effects of amphetamines. I've also read that it may also inhibit tolerance.
Avatar f tn then a few days layer i got pain behind my right breast and right shoulder then the next day it was my left shoulder and left breast and i have back pain................i have a heart dr and had a ekg in march and it was fine but that was before i was put on adderall............would pain lasting a week be the heart or my anxiety,im on xnax for anxiety and prozac for depression..
Avatar m tn I've been taking Adderall XR 20mg for nearly 2 year and have noticed that if I haven't masturbated in 2-3 days, ejaculate will appear either prior to, or after I urinate. I have checked side effects of Adderall XR on the manufacturer's website and have not found any information to this.
Avatar m tn There are many people who are misdiagnosised .And like said already Adderall is just like speed. And can cause very bad side effects,like Seizures.I am not a Doctor but it sounds like you might of had a Seizure witch can happen from taken these drugs they use along with other very bad side effects. Try taken Vitamin B6 and B12 and Omega 3-6-9 every day and see if that helps you in time to be able to do things better.
885719 tn?1240853594 ve been taking Lexipro and ativan for a month now and that has been pretty effective at stopping the panic and chest pain. While I hated the idea of taking one drug to cure the side effects of another, I recommend you get treatment for panic disorder. While my case isn't nearly as bad, I can empathize with you completely. This is definitely the worst period in my life. I wish I never took that damn "wonder drug" in the first place.
