A member asked:

How likely is it that one becomes addicted to vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine)? what is its potential to become abused?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is primarily prescribed for adhd. In my experience if the diagnosis is correct it has a low potential for addiction for that individual. However, it is a schedule ii medication. This means it has a high addiction potential for many people. This why the dea and fda place many restrictions on how and why this medication is prescribed. Consult your physician if you are concerned.
