Common Questions and Answers about Zoloft with vyvanse

zoloft

I started Vyvanse back in August 2010, and it was the miracle that I've been searching for. Over a span of 4 years, I've taken stimulants including: Concerta, 30mg Adderall IR, and 30mg Adderall XR. Concerta gave me migraines. Adderall XR completely sucked. Adderall IR was the best medication that I found until Vyvanse. Now I think Adderall is horrible in comparison. I've been taking 30mg of Vyvanse for a few months now. This has been my adjusted dose from trying 20mg, 30mg, and 50mg.
I am on sertariline Zoloft and I am also taking a beta blocker called propananol- these two in combination with an adhd medicine sort of makes it lost its effect. I need help organizing my thoughts and not misplacing things and a steady stream of medicine with out highs or lows. What is the most effective drug Concerta or Vyvanse or any other suggestions? I have heard of daytrana as well, but I'm an adult. I'm slowly getting everything back together.
He then prescribed to me the amphetamine, Vyvanse (30mg). I was to take it the very next morning after breakfast. I have had very few problems with the my other medications, like the antidepressant, Zoloft (50mg), and the antihistamine, Zyrtec (10mg). But I have started to notice some very disturbing and confusing side effects the same day I started taking this. On Friday, I had taken one pill in the morning and left to go to school (I had taken my other medications the night before).
old ffemale who was put on Vyanse to help with my focus and concentration.I have been on Vyvanse for 1 1/2 months. The original dose wa 30mg. but I didn't see a difference so I was upped to 70mg. 2 weeks ago. The past week I have felt very unmotivated to do anything. I don't even want to talk to my friends, I just feel like being alone all the time. This is partially what I went on the drug to get rid of but it's making it worse.
Zoloft 1xDay - 25mg Subutex 1xDay - 4mg Okay now, I have a family of three including a 4 year old son whom I love dearly. I'm going to college and work full time out of my house. I have many, many obligations and it's becomes really hard to cope with all of them when you've been suffering from ADHD/ADD since you were a child. I'm sure that there are a lot of you out that that can relate. Now I'm not a fan of taking any medication to treat ADD.
He is currently taking Focalin 5 Mg twice per day for the Hyperactivity and the doctor wants to try Zoloft starting at 12.5 MG this weekend. He has been unsuccessful due to tics, td, and sleep disturbance on med trials of all of the following other meds: Celexa, Prozac, Abilify, Risperdal, Strattera, Vyvanse, Methylin and Adderall.

Hello. I have recently been prescribed zoloft and dextroamfetamine (vyvanse). My dose has just been raised to 150 zoloft and 50 vyvanse. I am feeling dizzy, I'm sweating like crazy lying down in a cold room, and I've thrown up a few times since I took the increased dosages earlier today.

The Vyvanse is making the OCD worse becuase now he is focused so the things he is OCD about he is paying more attention to. Thanks for your input I will look at the ones you suggested.
Of course I weaned him off and after 2 years, he is finally normal again and only takes Vyvanse for his ADHD. The Vyvanse has worked great and he has been taking it for 1 year. When my son went off the zoloft after 2 months his tics decreased and most of the side effects went away. I told my doctor that I took him off since I had told her before that he was having problems and all she did was raise the dose.

He has been on ADHD medication since he was 4 and now newly diagnosed with OCD. They think the Vyvanse is making the OCD sympotms worse. I can see this since we placed him on Zoloft for the OCD things have improved somewhat. I feel so bad for him becuase our personalities are so different. I am very melow and laid back but also Type A. He is constantly getting into trouble over little things at school almost daily. He also makes me very frazzled throughout the day.
Hello and thanks for taking my question. In July 2008 I switched over from Zoloft and Invega to Wellbutrin and Cymbalta. At that time, these were my only medications. In August 08, when I stood up from my chair, my legs had terrible tremors. They were so bad that I had to hold onto the desk. This still happens today. I also experience leg tremors when descending stairs - but not going up. I get minor tremors while going from a standing to a sitting position.
He's on; Dextrosmphetamine 10mg, Vyvanse 70mg, and Zoloft 50mg in the AM and then Abilify 5mg at night. He is a very quiet child and I worry with taking all these meds he's anger issues will get worse. The doctor says he has both long term and short term memory loss and anxiety. I don't believe either. He can recall things both old and new just fine.

My 14 yr old son has a diagnosis of ADHD and ODD. He is on Vyvanse. Intuniv and Zoloft. He attends a private school for children with Behavioral and Developmental Challenges. The therapist we work with has mentioned some mood disorders as well. We tried Abilify for awhile, which had increased his appetite and he has gained 25 pounds in 3 months. We took him off this medicine because of the appetite issues, as well as not seeing a big difference.
He has also been diagnosed within the past 2 months with Autism (mild), Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder and ADHD-Mixed type by a Pediatric Neurologist. He is taking Zoloft 50mg and Vyvanse 30mg. When he was a baby he was slow to hit his milestones. He started talking around 8-10 months. Started walking around 18 months. He was a bed wetter until 5yrs. He's very immature for his age (plays well with kids 2 years younger then him).
My daughter, 9 years old, is bi-polar, takes Depakote, Risperdal and Zoloft. She has been stable for almost a year now :) however, is not focused on anything, failing in school because she does not pay attention, gets out of her seat 30 times a day and is the same way at home.
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.
My son was diagnose at the age of 5 with ADHD, OCD and anxiety. They put him on concerta and zoloft. When he was put on the Zoloft, I told the psychiatrist that I did not like this idea and that I was scared of what could go wrong with the med. She explained that this would help him and he would be fine. After 1 month of taking Zoloft, he started hitting anyone that tried to discipline him.
I began counseling sessions and was prescribed the anti-depressant Zoloft. I would later learn that the psychiatrist misdiagnosed me. Taking Zoloft alleviated the depression, but my life began to spiral out of control. Instead of being depressed all the time, my life was became a constant state of "up". I began to drink excessively and in March of 2005, I got a DUI. That same year I also filed bankruptcy. Over the course of 3 years I racked up $33,000 in credit card debt.
Right now im currently on an ADHD medication called vyvanse and I started that in october and Im also on zoloft which I started in august of 2007. Till this day I feel that my symtoms are worrsening everyday, I feel very week, sick and simple activitys cause shortness of breath. None of the doctors I'v been to know whats wrong. But were still looking at celiac, lupus, lyme and maybe lymphoma. Its just so hard for me to live like this, I cant exercise or do anything anymore. Please help!
I am on a anti-depressant (Zoloft), (Vyvanse) for ADHD and birth control. I am adopted so I am not sure of my family history. I have never had any digestive issues until early last December. The first thing I noticed is when I went to the bathroom I had a hard time and did not feel like I was completely emptying my bowls. I had random pain when I was at school in my lower quadrants that would gradually get worse and go away then come back later.
I was diagnosed with depression at 14 and then bipolar later on. I was n zoloft but self unmedicated at 20 because of the side affects. I tried multiple anitdepressants and had a difficult time with them mostly because each had it's own postives and negatives. I was diagnosed with ADD at 5 and was on ritalin until I did the same thing with that at 20 as I did with the anitdepressants.
