Adderall is a stimulant and appetite suppressant. It stimulates the central nervous system (nerves and brain) by increasing the amount of certain chemicals in the body. This increases heart rate and blood pressure and decreases appetite, among other effects.
• Adderall is used to treat narcolepsy and attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity (ADHD).
• Adderall may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
stimulant drugs like Adderall and Ritalin have become popular as either recreational drugs or “speed” for people who like to stay awake all night and party or for late night cram sessions. Adderall is a stimulant drug like other stimulant drugs such as cocaine, amphetamines, methamphetamines, and caffeine. When taken recreationally, Adderall is sometimes crushed and snorted through the nostrils or taken orally. Amphetamines like Adderall have a high potential for abuse. Taking amphetamines for long periods of time may lead to drug addiction. Misuse of Adderall may cause sudden death and heart attacks or other serious heart problems.
