A member asked:
What should be done about teenagers abusing adderal ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intervene: A lot of adderalll abuse is supported by a culture that encourages youngster to use this drug to do better in school even though it should only be used to treat adhd. We need to stand up and insist to school counselors and physicians that we don't want our kids drugged for a few extra points on the sats or on their high school grade points. This is a community problem.
