please urgent help with adderall | ADHD Information

I think it is safe to say you need to call an emergency number for your Dr. and tell them what is happening NOW!!! No, you can't tell adderall on a pregnancy test. If she is hemmoraging from something internal, she could bleed to death, CALL Dr. no screwing around. Also time to get a emergency room involved. Bruises are not from normal things, she has some other issues and things happening were not being told. Get to A DR. hello,
my freind takes 30mg of adderall xr once a day ever sence she started it she
has had bruises bad all over her body and she recenly began bleeding from
her vagina this is her 10th day of very very heavy bleeding much more then
if she had her period she also got the bleeding before she was due for her
period so she thinks she could have had a miscarage? i dont know what to
do she doesent drink much i mean liquids and doesent eat much goes on
very little sleep but she has always done that. i know you guys are not
doctors and she needs to see one but she will not right now so anyone heard
of this happing from adderall or could this more likley be from something
else? also does adderall efect blood tests can you tell a person takes it by a
pregnacy test. thanks so much for reading and responding i really really
thank you!

Hello,

I hope you took the advise to take your friend to the doctor.  And from a personal stand point, thank you for posting what you did.

I have been on adderall for almost three months and have had a good experience except for the fact that I've been bruising as well.  I told my doctor about this and walked out of his office with an increased dosage strength for my next perscription.  He wants to "monitor" me more closely, however, I am having a hard time with this bruising thing.

I haven't found any info on medical sites regarding links between adderall and bruising.  I did find, however, a posting from a woman who stated that her grand daughter after being on adderall started to bruise intensly.  They took her to the hospital and found that her blood platelets (the stuff that makes your blood clot) were dangerously low.  They took her of adderall immediatly and kept her in the hospital where she quickly recovered.

My bruising comes and goes very quickly, but I am almost certain it is from the adderall.  I have been in the last week increasing my vitamin c intake (i know that is a supposed no no for adderall but i experience no decrease in medicinal affects), vitamin b and most importantly (for your friend as well) vitamin k which helps to increase blood platelets and clotting abilities.  Vitamin K can be found in green leafy vegetables especially brocalli and green t.  You can't buy Vitamin K straight, so you have to eat it in foods.

Please keep me updated on your friend.  I'm glad she has you by her side.
