A member asked:

I'm unable to get my vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) script (70mg) for a couple more weeks. how long will it take for me to feel normal again & have energy? thank you!

Vyvance and energy: Although your medication has stimulant properties, it has been approved for the treatment of ADHD. It could be used for Narcolepsy, although it would be off-label. In terms of the stimulant effect, it is related to daily intake only. I would be more concerned with your functioning if the diagnosis is ADHD. In that case, I would advise to try and get a script asap.
