Excessive Tiredness, Dizziness, Fainting Episodes. Taking Adderall, Wellbutrin, Zoloft. Causes And Treatment?

35 year old female currently taking adderall , wellbutrin, and zoloft . Recently had a physical in which my doctor said everything is normal. My problem is, I am always tired. I can sleep sometimes 16 hours in a day. Also, I get dizzy very easily. My doctor says fainting is natural sometimes but this isn t normal. It s terrible feeling this way and having no way to explain it or go about fixing it. Is there something I should have my doctor look at that we may be missing?

Hi,

Welcome to the forum. It seems you have been suffering from the side effects of Adderall. You should immediately contact your treating doctor if you have uneven heartbeats, fainting attacks, numbness or any kind of restlessness.

The dosage of your medications needs to be monitored. Also get your Thyroid function tests, T3,T4, TSH done to rule out any thyroid problems, your symptoms are indicative.

Make sure you exercise regularly, eat balanced home made fresh food and take adequate sleep. Take care.
