Is this likely a side effect of my medication?

Question: I forgot to take my adderall for a couple days, then started back at the lowest dose the first day and increased the second day. I haven't been able to sleep more than 3 hours at a time since I increased it, even though I've taken the same dose before. I also have a pain in the gut of my stomach and am nauseous a lot (which I usually get if I took the adderall on an empty stomach). I haven't been eating much, maybe 1000 calories a day: Is my body reacting differently this time around then it did only a week ago?

Answers:
Yes, sounds like you may not be eating enough with the meds, try taking it with milk and some crackers or something like that.. I am nauseated all the time too, and now on 3 nausea meds at once.. but they are not helping much .. sorry to hear you are having problems, know it is no fun !! is the smaller dose of your meds doing you any good ?? if so you might want to cut back on the meds again, but if they don't you may just have to take them with more food.. good luck..
