Small Blackouts, Severe Hot Flashes, Mood Swings, Sharp Chest Pain, Nausea After Taking 4 Adderall. Concerning?
I took 4 adderall (10mg each) YESTERDAY and TODAY my heart rate is 126 at resting .I'm also having small blackouts (where everything goes black for like a minute or so). And I keep getting severe hot flashes and mood swings.I haven't sleep in over 24hrs And I keep having short intense sharp chest pain right where my heart is. I'm also having shakiness, dizziness, and nausea. Am I just coming down from the adderall or should I be more concerned?
Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Adderall contains amphetamine group of drugs which are known to cause hyper stimulation of the systems of our body. I do not know whether you are being prescribed this drug by your doctor, or you have ingested this of your own. In both the cases, the symptoms what you have started getting is possibly due more to the side effects of a high dosage, than a withdrawal.
The seriousness of these symptoms can not be judged over discussions over net, and I would suggest you to report in an emergency department of the nearest hospital in your area without any delay to be on the safer side.
At the same time I would not hesitate to counsel you not to ingest these drugs of your own without the supervision of a medical doctor if you have to for any medical problem.
Thanks for using healtcaremagic for your health query. Wishing you all the best. Dr Shareef.
