ADHD meds are nearly always controlled substances (aka uppers) which can affect the body much like methamphtamine or cocaine. Kit can correct me if I'm mistaken, but strenuous physical activity combined with medication like this sounds like a recipe for destruction. Why didn't the doctor warn of this combination?
