For stimulants: increased blood pressure. I've had to switch several times because I wasn't able to get to an effective dose without sitting firmly in prehypertension bp levels.
- PhasmaFelis 11y agoTrue, although--if this isn't obvious--this won't necessarily matter if you're not prone to high blood pressure. I've got several risk factors as well as ADHD, but even with daily stimulants my blood pressure is comfortably within the healthy range.
- lfowles 11y agoRight, and even then.... I now don't have the impulse to go get soda and snack food at the convenience store nearby to kill time. I also find it easier to plan meals and follow through. So, net positive as far as lifespan.
