How to treat elevated blood pressure?
Patient: my daughter who is 15 weighing about 120 lbs just started adderall today about 2 hrs ago was her first dose. she says she feels really dizzy her head hurts and she feels shaky. i am thinking her blood pressure is elevated and wanted to know what i could do at home to help her or should i thake her to the er Doctor: Thanks for contacting HCM. You have not mentioned why your daughter has started adderall. if she is taking it to reduce weight then it should be discontinued immediately as it has no proven effect in reducing weight but has potential for really serious side effects and even addiction. Adderall has known side effects of causing dizziness and high blood pressure. Take her to Er get her Blood pressure checked and get her treated for dizziness and do not give her any products and medication including adderall with out consulting a doctor. regards
