Common Questions and Answers about Vyvanse and high blood pressure

vyvanse

I was found to have high blood pressure about 6 months ago; Atenenol was prescribed and works fine. I already take 300mg Wellbutrin and 10mg Valium. Just a couple of months ago I was diagnosed ADHD, and Vyvanse was prescribed, along with clonidin. I have to really watch my blood pressure now, because if I miss taking the atenenol, my blood pressure will shoot up over 160 really quick.

If the high blood pressure just started, it could be a side effect of the Vyvanse. Even if you had high blood pressure before starting on the Vyvanse, the Vyvanse can make it worse. Try taking your blood pressure a few times on the Vyvanse and off the Vyvanse, at similar times of day and under similar circumstances. Depending on the results, you may need to talk to the doctor that is prescribing the Vyvanse to see if there is something else that can help your ADHD.

I got on Vyvanse last year and I had high blood pressure again. I stopped taking it for a while, but I was still having high blood pressure so my Dr. put me on Lisinopril 10 mg & HCTZ 25 mg. My BP has still been high on this, even off Vyvanse (I am taking it again now since I am back in school). I told my Dr. about my anxiety bc I get really stressed about little stuff and almost feel like I am going to have a breakdown. I used to be on Prozac, but didn't think it did anything.

5 XR until recently and the dr has recommended Vyvanse. Has anyone used this product on a child this young. I have read some side effects and it is scaring me a little.

I have nausea, anxiety, acid reflux, what feels like high-blood pressure and I can't really focus. I begin to taper my medication down and notice that even the smallest amount of my medication has a big effect on me. For example, when I start taking Adderall I'll begin with let's say "for example" that I begin taking 10mg 2xDay. Week one is great. Week 2 the medication doesn't seem to be as affective but I stay on the same dose.

She gave me antibiotics incase of a sinus infection cuz she did say she saw drainage at the back of my throat. They also drew blood. My blood sugar level was at 39. They said I could've gone into a coma. They did more tests on Friday to see if it was diabetes/hypoglycemia. She also set me up to get an MRI of my head on Tuesday. I have an appointment with a syctatrist tommorow.

I have tried cutting the Vyvanse for as long as a week, and there was no improvement. At this point I don't know what else to try. The high blood pressure, and high heart rate are making me leery of intense excercise. If anyone has any ideas, similar experiences, or suggestions please let me know. I can't figure out what else to try.

First, stimulants, such as Vyvanse and Focalin, have side effects of increasing heart rate and blood pressure. I am not aware of increased risk of heart attack, per se, although if you have risk factors, such as hypertension, cigarette use, diabetes, high cholesterol, etc., stimulant medications may cause an extra stressor on the heart that could lead to a heart attack. Without evaluating you specifically, I cannot say for sure exactly what happened with you.

Hi! Tremors, restlessness, skin rashes (purple discoloration), palpitations, high and low blood pressure etc can be due to vyvanse. However, smoking too can also cause deep vein thrombosis and similar symptoms. You can talk to your doctor and get this investigated. If the symptoms are due to vyvanse, changing medication or adjusting the dose will help. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Take care!

I will say my blood pressure was very high in the office. I had forgotten my sheet (after a hectic morning) that gave bp readings for the last month. My pb had been good when taken at home which I shared. I also share that I take Vyvanse prescribed by my family dr. Well, the cardiologist actually exhibited anger towards me. My pb spikes in a doctor's office. He angrily snapped at me and said will check with my family dr about the Vyvanse - insinuating it was prescribed maybe?

Things seemed okay for the first three days and then I started to have attacks of high blood pressure (166/90), tachychardia (140 bpm at rest) and severe chest pain. Yesterday I had to call an ambulance when one of these "episodes" hit me and after that I said "I've had it!" and threw it all away. Four or five times I thought I was going to die on this regimen.

Hello Doctor Mark Lupo, Some history: My TSH, Free T3, and Free T4 are all in-range. The TSH went slightly high, out-of-range; retested in-range. Some family history of thyroid cond. and my symptoms. As for my adrenals, I've had the serum cortisol, ACTH, sodium, and potassium tests. My symptoms seem hypoadrenal and possibly hypothyroid. Mainly: 1) mental fatigue (with poor attention, memory, concentration, retention, etc.) with ADHD and other learning disabilities.

My 17 year old daughter began taking vyvance last school year. She started with 30 mg (to little) and then tried 50mg (to much). They now have a 40mg which she started the beginning of this school year. About 2 weeks into the school year she was feeling sick to her stomach, headaches, etc, nothing new, BUT then she started feeling light headed and very weak. A trip to the pediatrician showed very high blood pressure and protein & blood in her urine.

finally, a physical examination showed orthostatic hypotension--my blood pressure dropped when i went from sitting to standing, I also had a slow ankle reflex--don't ask me what it is called. My doctor felt like my physical symptoms pointed to low cortisol. i was originally diagnosed with a stim test by one doctor and then a second doctor did an improper stim test and a non-fasting blood draw---and pulled me off hydrocortisone and thyroid.

He takes a very high dose. Back in spring 2008, I did some research to see if the Methadone (a central nervous system depressant) could be causing the apnea, because prior to the use of pain meds, he did not have sleep apnea. Some opioid medications are: Methadone, Morphine, Roxicodone, OxyIR, OxyContin, Duragesic, Percocet, Vicodin, Dilaudid, Demerol. Well, early this year, I really couldn't find much on the topic. I decided to try to find more information now.

Smoking and taking stimulants can also cause greying of the hair earlier than normal. In time, you will notice a sensitivity to cold temp.. Adderall can cause high blood pressure and high heart rates. Ask your doctor or a nurse to check your heart rate/bp on your next visit. Actually, by law prescribing dr.'s are required to take bp and heart rate of patients taking adderall although few adhere to it. I know that it helps you with classes.

For me it does more than help me remember where my keys wallets and other things are. I'm on as high of a dose as I can do without my heart blowing out a valve. I take high blood pressure medication to counteract the dose I'm on now (60mg sa tabs generic). I'm still not able to hold a job because of my symptoms but I'm very thankful for the help my medication does give me. Dexidrine used to work much better but they took that off the market or something.

Have you been tracking your blood pressure?

My heart rate was a constant 130 beats per minute, sometimes even faster, as opposed to my usual 60-70 bpm (I know this because at the group home I was in they tested blood pressure and heart rate twice daily) for the remainder of the day until I went to sleep. Ever since then I ahve been unusually aware of my heartbeat, and I get an odd sensation upon standing, which I can only describe as feeling weak and heavy. This lasts less than 5 seconds after I stand.

And on thursday (June 3rd, today is June 5) I recieved a normal adjustment/manipulation which required a little more pressure than usual in my tail bone area. I left and felt fine as usual, nothing had changed, I felt fine. Then on friday (June 4th) around 1-2 in the afternoon, during my 4th hour class period, I lost pain in my right shoulder (the one i dislocated).
