A member asked:
I was just wondering why does adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) xr calm me down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ADHD: People who have ADHD or ADD are calmed down by stimulant medication. The medications work in the frontal lobe to increase attention and focus (a problem in people with ADHD). This causes a reduction in the agitation behaviors of non-treated ADHD patients.
