Question 7

what is the minimum time allowed between taking vyvanse dosage(s)? is there a dosage set point where the intensity of the medication extends the time?

Accepted Answer

Vyvanse dosage: These are one daily drugs. They are stimulants. If taken too late they will interfere with sleep. Usual time to take this med is in the morning, before school or before work.  Should only be taken under physician supervision.  If you are taking it for "ADD" or ADHD,  I would advise that you be evaluated by a mental health professional.

Accepted Answer

: There  is an FDA shortage site which I checked and it did not indicate problems with your drug, but there may be local problems.  Contact your doctor's office and get assistance how  to deal with your issues.

have adhd & just started with vyvanse. i noticed that i can function and do things. i noticed tht when i dont take them, i cant do things and im not able to focus. is this just the result of my adhd and what its like when im not taking them?

Accepted Answer

: The common explanation for stimulant effect in ADHD is it turns on a monitor section of the brain that allows you to cancel out distractions. If you find you focus and produce better on the med, that is the desired effect. Good for you.
