A member asked:

Adderal is helping me but giving me headaches and nausea. anyone have any suggestions for that?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Try another drug: Rather than taking a drug to counter the effects of another drug, you are better off finding a different drug usually effective for the same condition for which you are taking adderal.
