Side effect: Increased perspiration is a known potential side effect of stimulants, which increase the drive of the sympathetic nervous system. Other potential related side effects can be increased blood pressure, heart rate, and GI motility. You should bring this concern up with the prescribing doc. Perhaps a change in dose, change in drug, or new antiperspirant will be discussed.
