Prescriptions for Adderall are indicated only for ADHD – attention deficit hyperactivity disorder – and narcolepsy. Looser definitions of ADHD now include adolescents as well as adults. Increasingly abused as a recreational drug, a memory enhancer, an athletic booster and an aphrodisiac, this amphetamine preparation often leads to physical and psychological addiction. Side effects include paranoia, anxiety, palpitations, muscle tremors and even convulsions. Over 100,000 individuals seek emergency care each year related to adverse reactions to Adderall.
