Dr. Carla Enriquez answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Offset : That's an offset symptom. Others are picking at cuticles, chewing inside of your cheek, irritability, hunger, headache, agitation, sleepiness. Usually this lasts less than an hour. Discuss your offset symptoms with your doctor, a longer acting from of amphetamine such as vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) may ameliorate these.
