[|Human|] I am 20 years old and 5 9 and was 125/130 pounds when I started taking Adderall in February. I have been this weight the past three years, plus or minus a few. However, since starting my percription I have experienced a weight gain and am around 145. When researching the relation of adderall to weight gain i only saw things saying that adderall was actuall a appitite supressor and is related to weight loss. When i do take adderall i sometimes experience bloating but it doesnt stop me from feeling hungry, im just uncomfortable. should i stop taking this perscription?
[|AI|]  The cause for weight gain could be something else such as hypothyroidism. You should not stop taking the medicine on your own without consulting the doctor. There is no evidence that Adderall causes weight gain. Though it can suppress appetite and cause weight loss, not every person taking Adderall will experience these effects. You should consult the doctor who prescribed you Adderall. She/he will examine you and may order a few tests to find the reason for your weight gain. I hope this answers your question.
