Adderall - OTC meds? | ADHD Information

Does anyone taking adderal have any complicatons with other over the counter meds?   Example - sinus meds, advil, afrin, cold meds?  I just started meds yesterday and I noticed on the bottle it said to contact my doctor if taking any OTC meds as they could interact.

I asked my pharmacist the same question and her answer was to avoid anything with a decongestant.  For example regular OTC Claritin would be fine, but NOT Claritin-D.  My doctor also mentioned that acidic or high fat foods slow down absorption of the medication.
