Appetite enhancer medication
I take Dexedrine for ADHD and it totally ruins my appetite. I am at the highest dose perscribable. It seems that even though I have developed a high tolerance to this medication the side effect of appetite loss gets worse the higher my dosage goes. I am getting very thin and I am starting to feel weak. Dexedrine makes food seem very unappealing even if my stomach hurts. It seems to make me an even picker eater than I usually am. I have resorted to smoking pot more frequently not to get high but to stimulate my appetite. I am wondering if there is any good medication to stimulate my appetite. The only medications that come up are cancer and aids patient’s medications. I don't think I would ever be considered for them. I took remeron before and I gained about 10 pounds but it left me in a very groggy state the next morning so I stopped taking it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

remeron will make you eat like you've never known.

Talk to your Doctor.
Smoking pot just makes brains more ADD-like. Eeeek! And, ofcourse, it's... smoking. Elavil will pack on the pounds. You really really (really) need to talk to your Doctor. |

Miss, have you contacted her doctor to discuss your concerns, and to report her behaviors?
