Avatar m tn I was wondering if there was a possibility of me having thyroid problems because of this effect the Vyvanse had on me? I thought i was going to be focused and energized. Can you please let me know if this is the effect Vyvanse does to people with thyroid problems? Thank you.
Avatar n tn he refered me to a psych. my psych told me that vyvanse would help my add and my depression. he started me on 30mg and had to move me up to 50mg after 2 weeks because it was wearing off half way through the day and i would get extremely tired. when i first started taking the drug i noticed that i was more clear headed and driven through the day. at the same time i noticed that my appetite had decressed,my throat stayed dry and i was having trouble falling asleep.
3063045 tn?1340654053 on 30 mg of Vyvanse 3 times daily. by 4 pm or so I am extremley tired.. is there a reason?
Avatar n tn We snorted it and everyone got high off it, except me...it had the complete opposite effect on me. Needless to say, I never got invited to a pill party again...lol. Now I know I have ADHD and I'm taking Vyvanse. If your daughter has ADHD, Vyvanse isn't going to be very much fun...not much exciting happens when you take it. You feel calmer, can concentrate, remember things better, etc...not a high.
Avatar m tn During the next week, I started exhibiting the behaviors that I associate with my depressive symptoms. However, since the Vyvanse makes me lose touch with reality, to some extent, and slows my thoughts significantly, I wasn't really aware of it. My doctor told me I could play around with the doses and see what works for me, since he would be seeing me in two weeks.

1575110 tn?1334664635 With nothing to lose, I said yes. I do like Vyvanse. It works for me, I am happy, motivated, and just feel more like me. I don't have any side effects from it either. I've not heard of Daytrana before. So that must be a new one as well? Also I used to take Adderall XR and that is a great medicine as well. I just took it for so long that it started to not work and help me the same way anymore.
Avatar f tn I think he was beginning to notice some of the side effects and put two and two together. Anyway, without telling me, he quit the Vyvanse cold turkey 15 days ago. He is still going thru withdrawal. Please, can someone help me? How long will this last? After he first quit taking it, he was angry, suicidal, tired, and was having flu-like symptoms every day.
Avatar n tn i have a long day and take vyvanse very early it is suposed to last 12 hrs but i think more like 7 i read that people take boosters with it i still have ritalin cause i just switched 2 weeks ago to 70 mg vyvanse and it doesnt do anything anymore did the vyvanse make it so it no longer works what is the best way to go about this aftr work i take care of my kids all night and have been lacking energy and very short with them which isnt fair cause it is not their fault id ask my dr but he would jus
Avatar f tn I agree with Sandman2 that you are taking too much. The first medication the doctor tried on me was vyvanse. I started on 30 mg which didn't last long enough. I was in college when I was taking it and took it at 9am and it was gone by 3-4pm. She increased my dose to 50 mg which was too much for me.
Avatar f tn m thinking ab withdrawing from them and going back after my girls come so I can take my vyvanse. It helped my grades tremendously and helped me concentrate. I wanted to go to school to get as many credits as I could before the girls get here, but i can't afford to fail my classes. Im constantly tired and have migraines everday. Everytime I try to sit and do my hw it jus doesnt work out.
Avatar m tn It will be a good thing getting off Gabapentin, it makes my anxiety a bit worse and makes my resting heart rate pretty high which also makes my anxiety worse. I wanted to post my question to see if anyone on here had experienced this issue or heard of this. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated. I guess I will just have to suffer until I'm off the Gabapentin. Oh before I forget. I have done a lot of therapy, I've been in therapy on and off for the last 20 years.
447130 tn?1225470866 I have been off them for years until a month ago. Dr put me on 70 mg of Vyvanse but no adderall. I have been unmotivated, tired and in a fog. I have hypothyroidism too and reduced my dosage so that didn't help either. Talking to Dr tomorrow and get the meds straight. Rather have racing thoughts than be stuck in a fog and can't do anything.
Avatar m tn i have taken vyvanse, and adderall (unprescribed) on a couple of occasions to help me with my school work, but this afternoon i had one of the worst experiences of my life. i had purchased a 70 mg vyvanse pill, took 1/4 of it yesterday and the other 3/4 this morning, so today i was on about 50 mg.
Avatar f tn I'm 16 years old, male, 6'3", 185 lbs. I have been prescribed Vyvanse to treat my ADD symptoms for about two years (currently at 70mg), and the results have been amazing. I have maintained a 4.0 GPA or higher in every grading period so far in my highschool career. But, I have recently noticed that I often get dizzy while doing cardio workouts, and a dangerously high heart rate. However, I'm in no means out of shape, and am extremely ripped.
Avatar m tn 20mg strataline, 50 mg vyvanse (Note, all these symptoms were there before vyvanse, it is the only thing that makes me feel alright for periods of time) Also note, i have an abnormal rash, that even with antibiotic/steroid ointment has been on my right wrist to side of pinky. Dry, itchy, patchy, skin that scabs up and bleeds. It began around the time of my first panic attack 2 years ago ( I've heard this may be a sign of other conditions) My doctor said it is probably just psoriasis.
Avatar f tn vyvanse my children don't really want to eat and when it wears off they act like do get any food why?
1396846 tn?1332459510 is it interfering with your sleep at all? exacerbating the effects of coffee/tea? making you jittery at all? just some of the things that have made me a bit reluctant to try this kind of drug. also if you don't mind me asking, how many rx drugs in total do you take regularly? I'm on 3 and neuro reluctant to have me on more. he would actually like me on less, but that's not feasible for me right now.
Avatar n tn I've noticed since I started taking vyvanse 3 years ago ( started on 30mg and now up to 70mg) that I have become slightly more aggressive and am prone to crying fits when before I was not at all. I am add and the doc has tried pushing for 100mg a day but due to insurance restrictions that's not happening.
Avatar m tn Hi! So I just had to come to google to see why my Vyvanse wasn't working for me anymore, and I saw your comment.. I have been on Vyvanse for maybe a year now and have found that my 70 mg dosage just isn't kicking in or working as well as it used to for me anymore?? So is this happening with you as well? Like it's still really hard for me to focus, and I really don't feel the effect of the medicine at all anymore. I wonder whats happening?
Avatar m tn Ok, I have vyvanse 70 mg tablets. Currently I have been on them for 3 days alotogether. I take the pill when i want to, I've takin 3 pills in one week. My first quesiton (1. Is it safe to take vyvanse when needed? If not what are the harms of it and is it very severe or no?. (2. MY BIG CONCERN. Its a love hate situation for me so far, i love what it does, the concentrating, the happy mood, love it! But I'm having awful side effects. The first day i had none.
