Hypoglycemia, Other Medications

advertisement
Question from Louisiana, USA:

My 16 year old daughter was recently tested and had a low blood sugar level. She is on Adderall, 10 mg. She has been very tired of late. Could it be a combination of the two or just the medicine?

Answer:

From: DTeam Staff

Since you didn’t give the glucose value, I really have a hard time making a comment. I doubt the glucose is the problem unless it is low enough to make her unconscious. Since this is a diabetes site, I really don’t want to go further with possible diagnoses. I also am not an expert on ADD and it’s drugs.
