A member asked:
When i take adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) even in higher dosages it makes me very sleepy? is this normal or am i having a paradoxical reaction.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Paradoxical : This is a paradoxical response if it is a actually making you sleepy. See your doc and try a different med . If it persists then it may be an underlying sleep disorder. Sleep consultation would then be appropriate.
