A member asked:

I take 50mg of vyvanse in the morning. is it okay for me to take a decongestant at night time for a cold?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is a hazardous combination as both can raise blood pressure and increase the heart rate. Instead of decongestants which contain symphathomimetic actions, take a plain antihistamine and carefully irrigate your nasal membranes with clean warm salt water.
