No, Adderall should not affect breast augmentation surgery

No, Adderall should not affect breast augmentation surgery. You should let your plastic surgeon anesthesiologist know about this and all other medications, prescribed and recreational, that you have been taking.

Adderol and Breast Augmentation

Adderol should have no effect on breast augmentation procedure. Your anesthetiologist should know that you take adderol so that they make sure that it will not interefere with any of the drugs they use during the procedure.

Your medications and breast augmentation surgery

It is important for your plastic surgeon to obtain a detailed history and physical exam prior to your surgery. We need to know any and all medications you take to make sure that there are no potential adverse reactions and thankfully these are rare. Adderall is important for the anesthesiologist to know about because of it's stimulant effect. I can tell you though I have cared for a number of women who do take Adderall and they have all done fine. I hope this helps. Dr Edwards more

I am prescribed adderral, i had a capsulectomy two weeks ago due to capsular contraction in my right breast. My ps told me I could get back on my adderrall after the surgery but I was also told not to do anything that would increase my blood pressure, including sex. When i got home i looked up if adderrall increases blood pressure and from what I read, it does. Im confused as to why he said its ok to take my adderrall but not to do any activities that would increase my blood pressure? I need to be on my adderral(for work- now that im back to work), but I definitely DO NOT want to have to go through ANOTHER cc and ANOTHER surgery..... what is your input on this??
