Can Adderall Cause Lupus Erythematosus In A 15 Years Old?

Posted on Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Question: Could adderall 'trigger' selective lupus erythematosus---or symptoms like it in a 15 yr. old girl? (joint pain, overwhelming fatigue, swollen lymph glands, rashes, mouth ulcers, and purple blue fingers)

Hi,

Thanks for the query.

No, Adderal is generally not associated with any of these problems.

Other medicines like hydralazine, isoniazid, etc., have these side effects.

Hope I answered your query. I am available for further comments/discussion. So let me know if you need further clarifications.

Regards
