What Are The Effects Of Adderall On Blood Pressure And Heart Rate?

I just recently started taking Adderall for ADD and was curious about blood pressure and heart rate while one. Do most people s bp and hr go up? My average is pretty normal, usually around the 100s/70s or 80s with a hr of about 85-90, which is kind of high, but it s always been that way. I just checked and my bp was 93/67 with a bp of 107. Is that ok?

Hi, i have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Yes Adderall can cause palpitations, increase in blood pressure. But it commonly cause anxiety issues. Your blood pressure is ok but pulse rate is bit high. You should exercise daily and eat healthy diet. I suggest you can use Xtended release tablets comes with name of Adderall XR this will have less side effects.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate to ask . I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
