Possibly: Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) can be a strong appetite suppressant. Is your current weight a healthy one or have you lost too much weight. If loss is too great speak to your prescriber about either adding Periactin to stabilize weight and increase appetite, or ask for an alternative that may have less appetite effect.
