I don't think that would be a problem but if you have any doubts, and if your hypoglycemia is related to any other medical factor, you should talk to your doctor.

I do that...but be careful, because the adderall (adderrall) makes you not think about eating and hypoglycemia symptoms settle in fast when you don't eat. Always make sure to have healthy, handy snacks around!

I agree. My daughter takes adderrall and she has lost 25 lbs in 2 months while on it. She just never thinks about eating and I have to remind her to eat.
