What is Amphetamine Sulfate?

Amphetamine Sulfate is a stimulant prescribed to patients with ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder), narcolepsy (excessive, uncontrolled daytime sleepiness), and obesity. Amphetamine Sulfate is a Schedule II controlled substance. It has a high potential for abuse and addiction.

For ADHD, Amphetamine Sulfate increases chemicals in the brain, called neurotransmitters, which are responsible for attention, focus, and impulse control. As a result, Amphetamine Sulfate helps relieve the inattentiveness, hyperactivity, lack of focus, and impulse control typical of ADHD.

Narcolepsy is a rare condition in which patients have sudden attacks of sleepiness or muscle weakness and paralysis. Amphetamine Sulfate excites the central nervous system and helps the patient maintain wakefulness through the day.

Amphetamine Sulfate is used along with dietary management to treat obesity caused by overeating. It is prescribed temporarily (a few weeks) to patients who have not succeeded in losing weight using standard therapies, such as diets or other weight loss drugs. Amphetamine Sulfate is an appetite suppressant and increases metabolism (energy use). Amphetamine Sulfate is not as effective in weight loss as anorectic (appetite suppressant) medications.

Amphetamine Sulfate is available in instant and extended-release formats. Amphetamine Sulfate is administered as a tablet, capsule, or dissolving tablet (Evekeo ODT).

What are the side effects of Amphetamine Sulfate?

Amphetamine Sulfate has many side effects, but the most common are sleeplessness, headache, stomach ache, impotence, dizziness, diarrhea, constipation, dry mouth, weight loss, elevated blood pressure, shaking, heart palpitations, and loss of appetite. Amphetamine Sulfate may cause muscle wasting and has been shown to slightly stunt the growth of children. Prolonged use of Amphetamine Sulfate may cause heart problems.

Mental and mood changes are common side effects and include anxiety, restlessness, irritability, aggression, nervous tics, and (rarely) psychotic episodes, among others. Long-term use or abuse of Amphetamine Sulfate may result in paranoid thinking.

Allergic reactions to Amphetamine Sulfate are uncommon and may include swelling or trouble breathing. Patients mistakenly diagnosed with ADHD will not benefit from Amphetamine Sulfate. Rather than relieve inattentiveness or lack of impulse control, Amphetamine Sulfate will act as a stimulant and result in ADHD-like symptoms, such as restlessness, hyperactivity, nervousness, anxiety, increased inattentiveness, and high blood pressure among other side effects.
