Adderall can increase anxiety which can cause chest pain. Are you experiencing anxiety with the chest pain?

The pain you describe could certainly be heartburn. Perhaps switch to taking fish oil in the morning. You could discontinue the Adderall and see if the pain stops.

If the pain gets worse or radiates to your arm, jaw, or neck, this is cause for going to the ER immediately.
