Can Amphetamine Salts Make Your Memory Worse

I have noticed that by taking the amphetmine salts (adderall) for many years, my memory has deteriorated. I am 45 years old and that should not be. Has any testing been done to know if I am correct? It is strange. I am focusing & memory is strong w/the medication in my system, but as soon as it wears off, memory is very bad.

It is most likely due to the withdrawal of it wearing off, according to NIH reports. Other withdrawal effects may include nausea, fever, chills, and anxiety.

That is generally how it works with any stimulant medication. What dosage are you currently taking?

Are you on any other medications?

This one is most commonly used to treat ADHD.
