Swelling Of Ankles, Fingers After Taking Adderall. Solution To Relieve The Swelling And Wean Off The Drug?

Thanks, I have read that one of the symptoms of taking adderrall is the swelling of your ankles and fingers. It says to see your Dr. I have no health insurance and I don't really like my Dr. but he's inexpensive. Not very nice or sympathetic though. Can you tell me how to relive the swelling. I'd really like to get off the drug all together. My husband was diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal cancer and I was taking it for depression. I don't think I need it anymore and my Dr. said to just cut back. It's been almost a year and it's easier said than done. He's not a DR. you can talk things out with or try to work with you. Please help with the swelling and the easiest way to get off the drug without too terrible side effects.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I understand your concern, marginal or say minimal swelling is okay, for that you must not worry, if the swelling is severe then the dose need to be gestated( you can lower the dose ) with salt restriction in diet, otherwise the swelling will not harm to your husband any more, just give moral support to your husband, any further question can be asked without hesitation have nice day.
