Can you get Adderall if you suffer from Bulimia?

Most likely not. Your psychiatrist will be reluctant to put you on that medication for several reasons. One being that bulimia causes erosion on the digestive tract and adderall can cause an increase in stomach acid. Another reason is that adderall can cause heart problems and advanced bulimia will do the same, greatly increasing the risk of heart attack or failure. Another reason is that bulimia is a psychological disorder and adderall acts on several receptors in the brain, which could cause severe symptoms such as paranoia, hallucinations, and many sleep/motor function control problems. Also, adderall has contradictions with several medications used by bulimia patients such as antacids, anti-depressants, and certain vitamins used when trying to restore your physical health. There are other options for ADD/ADHD that are much safer but you should never use adderall as a weight loss or appetite suppressant drug.
