What should I discuss with my doctor before taking dextroamphetamine?
Before using dextroamphetamine, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have: • a congenital heart defect; • high blood pressure; • heart failure, heart rhythm disorder, or recent heart attack; • a personal or family history of mental illness, psychotic disorder, bipolar illness, depression, or suicide attempt; • epilepsy or other seizure disorder; • an allergy to dyes used in drugs or manufactured foods; or • tics (muscle twitches) or Tourette’s syndrome.
