Does Adderall Tablet Cause Breakouts On Chin And Back?

Hi! Have been on 30 mg of adderall for 5 months. I have always had beautiful clear skin. Now I am breaking out really bad on my chin and back. Also have some sores on my scalp. Is the adderall causing this? Also my skin is very itchy. Sometimes feels like lite bugs crawling.

Hello and welcome.

Itching, rash, swelling, etc; are all side effects of adderall and are common. I would request you to approach your treating doctor to help either suppress your symptoms or prescribe you a safe and effective alternative. But for now please do not discontinue the adderall.

Best wishes.
