A member asked:

I have cirrhosis doc want to put me on adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) will it hurt my liver?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: In pharmacologic doses your liver should be able to handle it. It is extremely rare to develop liver toxicity at the usually prescribed doses of Adderall, (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) but it certainly could happen.

Dr Seibert and another doctor agreed
