Adderall

by AmySingh, Sep 25, 2007 08:04PM
My doctor prescribe me to earlier this year because I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have noticed that I have been having a strong urge to defaecate an hour after I take the pill. It is usually normal in appearance. Is this normal? I was scared that this urge to defaecate could be harmful in the long run.

I cannot see how it could be a problem, people are supposed to have bowel movements.

I would talk to the MD that prescribed this to you, or ask on the Fibromyalgia/CFS forum, there may be others there on the chronic fatigue forum that may know more..

But as a addict on the addiction forum, I would say that since Adderall is a form of amphetamine that it would cause this, speed and coke usually has this affect on people.
