Possible side affect of Adderall

by pattie, Oct 07, 1999 12:00AM
My 15 yr old daughter takes a 20mg dose of adderall daily for ADD.  Yesterday she went to the doctor for a med check; in performing a height/weight check, he found that she has "shrunk" one inch since he last saw her.  

He said this could be a possible side effect of the drug, and scheduled a follow up visit in 2 month to monitor.  

I've done some research and can find nothing to support this.  Is there any research to substantiate this?
