'...sudden rise in new prescriptions could bring about high risk of abuse, similar to the opioid crisis.
The drugs have a long list of serious side effects, including anxiety, seizures, insomnia, hallucinations, and psychosis. There have also been reports that the drugs could contribute to an increased risk of heart disease. ...It's been estimated that one in four American teens are abusing some form of prescription stimulants such as Adderall. The CDC has also reported that the percentage of children who have parent-reported ADHD has steadily increase over time.'
