Yes.: Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) and other stimulants are designed to correct the Dopamine deficit by blocking its reuptake and block some of the metabolic enzyme that absorb loose dopamine. When you're off the vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine), (lisdexamfetamine) your brain resumes the Dopamine deficit just like before you used vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine).
