Adderall Warning - FDA report cited 51 deaths

Adderall, a generic amphetamine combined with dextroamphetamine, is a prescribed stimulant used to treat children and adults for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Reports to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) show that serious adverse effects linked to Adderall and other ADHD drugs include death, psychosis, heart attacks and other serious side effects.

Adderall research and information was detailed in a February 2006 FDA report that cited 51 deaths in patients taking ADHD medications.

Adderall, used to treat ADHD, has been clearly linked to cardiovascular problems, including high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke, hypertension, and arrhythmia, in both children and adults. These drugs have also been tentatively linked to some cases of sudden death in children. The FDA has declared that it will conduct thorough research on the safety of several ADHD drugs, including Adderall.
