A member asked:

I take an add medication, is this in combo with sleep pills safe. is my testosteron affected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a great idea: ADD medications are amphetamine derivatives and stimulants. Most sleeping Rx pills are benzos with a sedative effect. Both are classed narcotics. Neither will affect testosterone levels. The combination of both medications will cause a" speedball" effect.I advise against this combination. Consult your physician.
