Amphetamine/Dextroamphetamine (Adderall) Pharmacology Podcast

from Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals

In this episode, I discuss amphetamine/dextroamphetamine pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interactions, and much more. Stimulants like Adderall are well known to cause insomnia. This adverse effect can be affected by the timing of the dose. Lack of growth and poor appetite are two important things to monitor in pediatric patients taking Adderall. Changes in the pH of the stomach/gut can alter the absorption of Adderall. I discuss this in greater detail in this podcast episode. Cardiovascular monitoring is essential with the use of stimulants like Adderall. Pulse and heart rate are two important vital signs to assess.
