Consult: See you prescribing physician. A lower dose may be better as it may allow you to sleep better. Sleep disruption is a common side effect with stimulants. Do not add another medication without talking to your doctor.

Better choices: Rather than adding another drug, consider an alternative Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine). There are other commonly used medications for ADHD that may not cause your sleep difficulty. Soeak to your prescriber.
