What Are The Side Effects Of Adderall?

I recently was told by my dr I have extremely low vitamin b12 and vitamin d levels. I have to get 6 weeks of injections. I am an active athletic thin 42 year old. I do take adderal for adult add, but this hasnt caused any weight loss. Also on occasion I smoke a little weed or drink a few beers. Do I need to be concerned about side effects from the adderal or marijuana?
