bacterial infections! So I started researching side effects to Adderall and after much digging around I finally came across a post in a woman's forum regarding a common STD which is a bacterial infection and the women were discussing Adderall. Sure enough, there were tons of ladies complaining that they have had an increase in all that is bacterial infections since taking the medicine. It seems to be linked, Bacterial Infections and Adderall.
Definitely tell you doctor ASAP. Side effects are so varied with each drug and effects each individual differently. All I can say is that I went on ADD medicine and had lots of side-effects and they passed within a few weeks to a month or so. Again, it might take longer for others. You could consider switching to another medicine.
For the first few weeks I had no unpleasant side effects other than not wanting to eat and dry mouth. However, several days ago late at night (6 hours after taking my last dose) I experienced a rapid, pounding heartbeat which scared me. Why would I experience that 6 hours after taking a 10mg dose? And why would those side effects appear weeks after taking the medication with no problems?
hi...I feel for you....I went through this ...made some good decisions ,some bad........the bad one was 12 years of hell academically....although had friends and had sports or vise versa...played sports and made lots of friends through them. But hated school. If I could do it again ...would of home schooled him. Think it is good advise to homeschool him for a while until he builds his self esteem and confidence. You can try public school at a later date. He is in college now ...
By the way, I don't think adderall makes kids smarter. Some kids will always struggle academically due to IQ. That's life.
I take adderall (10mg) for focus management. I have a couple side-effects that I don't really mind (dry mouth, loss of appetite, more outgoing/energy, weight loss) but I do have one strange one that I'm not too sure about.
I take my adderall after I eat a full breakfast, which is normally my only meal of the day (adderall dismisses my appetite). After about an hour of taking my medication, I have to go to the bathroom.
3 weeks would not be long enough for prozac to start working properly, but it can still cause side effects in that time, and if the side effects are bad then it's not unusual for a doctor to take their patient straight off it as there wont be withdrawl symptoms unless the patient has been on it for quite a while.
Her school tried to force her to get him on adderall. She refused and instead put him in karate and got more involved in his sports. His behavior changed dramatically and he is making good grades in school.
Parents need to start placing the blame on teachers in the schools and their methods of teaching. Teachers love these drugs because it makes their job allot easier...
Sadly, doctors leave important facts out as they are writing the prescription and the long term affects these drugs cause.
My daughter has been on Adderall imediate release twice a day for a year now for ADHD and has no side effects. She actually is a better eater and sleeps better with it. I am not sure why you take it but i do know that the XR did give her bad side effects. She was more hyper and was losing weight. Maybe you could try the 20 milligrams of the immediate release instead of the XR twice a day or even a lower dose. You maybe sensitive to the high of a dose.
