Duplication: It would be like taking a larger dose of dexedrine (dextroamphetamine) (it's a component of vyvanse) Don't do it w/out approval from your provider. It might be more than your system should handle. These medications are not playthings or snacks. They really can harm you even taken according to directions - but at least someone's made a decision about the gains vs risks. I'd say don't - but I can be a party pooper.

Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine): Not advised. Both are stimulants.

Same: Dexedrine is dexedrine sulfate, as is Vyvanxe. If the duration of action of Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) after maximizing the dose, still leaves a time period needing coverage, short acting dexedrine tablets, effect for about 4 hours, may help cover the time you need. You should not have to take both forms together
