Avatar f tn So I went and visited a general practitioner that specializes in weight loss. He prescribed Vyvanse to take in the morning then before bed I am supposed to take Topamax (migraine medicine) and Trintellix (an antidepressant) as well as a diet. I started on the Vyvanse mostly b/c I also suffer from ADHD and it is really great so far for my attention at work.
Avatar f tn I am guessing that you see two different doctors. One for weight loss and one for your ADHD/anxiety. I say this because Basically phentermine is a stimulant (works like adderall), but works differently then adderall. I am not sure you should be taking it with adderall. "Phentermine use is containdicated in those who are: Taking amphetamine (i.e. Adderall, Dexedrine, Vyvanse), in the last 14 days" This quote is from - http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar m tn I am taking Vyvanse and Prozac, and I'm having trouble getting myself to eat. I am still in a healthy weight range, so I'm not worried about that. But I've been weak, fatigued, and dizzy at times because I'm not eating enough. Are there any protein shakes I should try, or something like that, so I can be getting the nutrients I need? I hate most protein shakes because I can't stand the texture, and they're usually gross. But I have to do something.

Avatar m tn s Thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune disease that attacks the thyroid. If you have symptoms of hyperthyroidism, such as weight loss, rapid heart rate, palpitations, etc you should also get Thyroid Stimulating Immunoglobulins (TSI) to confirm/rule out Graves Disease, which is another autoimmune disease that attacks the thyroid. You should also get vitamin B12 tested, as B12 deficiency can cause horrendous fatigue, as well as tingling/numbness in the hands/feet, easy bruising, etc.

Avatar f tn No dose seemed to fit for me. But, I lost the weight I was needing to lose (20 lbs) and if I go off Vyvanse, will it come back on with a vengance? I have heard hunger just is out of control when stopping this drug. So I am afraid to stay on it and I am afraid to go off it.

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?
Avatar m tn I am really sensitive to medications. Adderall was like what I imagine taking crystal methamphetamine feels like. At least I felt like how those people looked. I have been on Vyvanse for a while now. And was worried when they doctor said it was very similar to Adderall XR. But he promised me that the issues I was having with feeling ill, insomnia, and no appitite would lessen on Vyvanse. And that the nasty, gross stimulant feeling I got from Adderall would go away.
1218509 tn?1267490923 I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 9 years old. Currently I am on Adderall, because Vyvanse was too expensive when I didn't have insurance. I took 60 mg of Vyvanse for three to four months, back in mid-2009; it was absolutely amazing. It was very smooth, it lasted around the 12-14 hours my Psychiatrist said it would, and I did not give me any side effects. I would highly recommend Vyvanse to anyone who needs a ADHD/ADD medication.
Avatar f tn So much of what I wrote pointed to Cushings, except for my weight loss which I attributed to the fact that I was taking Vyvanse. I was particularaly thrilled about the weight loss. I was looking great...until 3 days ago. My doctor gave me an antibiotic to treat the acne, but I am currently experiencing an intense breakout, worse than I have experienced in the last year. The hair on my face has doubled in speed of regrowth and I can't seem to keep up. And my weight...
Avatar n tn t advocate the use of B12 injections for weight loss. You might find more help asking your questions on The Weight Loss Alternatives forum.
Avatar f tn She called the DEA and then called the weight loss doctor. The weight loss doc is the one that called me. Told me what the pharmacist said. I am fine with quitting the subox, i might need one more month to do it. And I'm fine with quitting the other. But...could i be in trouble with the DEA? I know i can't go back to the weight loss clinic. But I'm supposed to see the subox doc tomorrow. Should i call the DEA myself,explain? I didn't realize it was a problem....
Avatar f tn Others abuse stimulant meds for their weight-loss properties. If your child is taking stimulants, make sure he or she isn’t sharing the pills or selling them. 1. Adderall 2. Concerta 3. Ritalin 4. Vyvanse 5. Strattera (do not use this, there is a warning on the label for suicidal thoughts) 6. focalin 7. Dexedrine Their may be other but these are the most popular ones used. Please read and research everything about this before doing anything.
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar f tn Now that I have stopped taking Geodon, I would like to know if anyone out there has been through the same experience with weight gain AND if weight loss is a side effect of coming off of Geodon? If not, is it easier to lose weight once you are off of the medication? I have my mind back and now I want my body back! Hope to hear some good news!
