> I have been prescribed Adderall for my add. (I'm 31 yrs old) I have been doing some research on it and have come across some info that concerns me! Most all sites say that I should not mix caffine and adderall... It gives no reason, just that I shouldn't. I have two weeks before my next Dr. appt and would love to fine out the answer now. I would appreciate any advice. Thank you...
I would assume that the main reason is that Adderall is at least *something* of a stimulant, if it's being used for ADD, and adding caffeine would either increase the effect into an undesirable range of stimulation (especially if you have any heart problems), or possibly interfere with the benefits of the drug.
