E75: ADHD: Stimulants: Adverse (Side) Effects
21.01.2026 | 1 godz. 1 min.
So, we've talked about every stimulant medication for ADHD under the sun and we understand them pretty well. Next, I will be discussing the adverse or side effects of these medications. What are the most common ones? Which should we take more seriously? And what can we do about them when they happen? I'll be discussing how to mitigate these adverse effects so that patients can take their stimulant medication that works for them, while not having to suffer from the side effects at the same time. I will go over most of the major ones today, but I will discuss cardiovascular effects and abuse potential on subsequent episodes.

31.12.2025 | 51 min.
Well, I've finally made it to the end of my nutrition talks and to round that discussion out, I will be going over the scientific data and evidence for improving your mood through improving your diet. There's actually a fair amount of studies out there, and they are growing. We will go over all that evidence today, so if you've been wondering why I've been talking about nutrition on a psychiatric medication podcast, then this episode will answer that question because diet works better than medications, and I'm going to talk about that evidence today.
