A member asked:

Is it possible to fully repair a weakened heart caused by adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine)? by exercising?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See answer: Not clear what you mean by a 'weakened' heart or any adverse effects from Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine). See your pcp or a cardiologist for evaluation, possible further testing, and guidance. If you think you have a 'weakened' heart, do not exercise without medical supervision. I hope this helps.
