Adderall

Has anyone experienced the use of adderall (adderrall) leading to nose bleeds in children?

Dear Caryl,

This is not a side effect that would normally be expected with Adderall (adderrall). However, CNS stimulants like Adderall (adderrall) can have an impact on blood vessels, particularly if they are used in conjunction with some other medications, such as those often prescribed for treatment og allergies. Hopefully you've discussed this with the doctor who is prescribing the medication.
