My 6 year old son has been on Vyvanse for 2 months. He was very diruptive and inattentive during his 1st 2 months of kindergarten. The teacher has seen a dramatic improvement since on Vyvanse. He takes it @ 6am, by 5 pm, it does seem to wear off. One downside; it is not a preferred med on our plan, it is $110 / month.

1. I don't think that this prescription has been that effective for me. I've been taking it for about 3 months now (but progressively increasing my dosage each month)and i still don't really feel the effects of it. I had previously taken the generic adderall 20mg and it was very effective. i found my self to be able to concentrate a lot better than i have been able to on vyvanse. 2.this drug is a ...

I had previously taken the generic adderall 20mg and it was very effective. i found my self to be able to concentrate a lot better than i have been able to on vyvanse. 2.this drug is an easy drug to use and to take orally, but because this drug is relatively new it is very hard to find at pharmacies. only one pharmacy around where i live actually carries it, all the others either don't have it or would have to order it if i tried to get it from them. 3. because of the above, mainly #1, I am not too satisfied with vyvanse. i am still currently raising my dosage, and maybe when i finally get it right it might be better. but for now, i think what ive take before is better than this. sorry

I was put on Vyvanse 30mg a day. I was not able to sleep the first couple of days; but this is a WONDER drug for me. I always wondered why I kept losing jobs never being able to stay on task. My Dr. said this was due to ADD, so I am loving life now. It works!

My Dr. said this was due to ADD, so I am loving life now. It works! I never had been put on a ADD drug before, so far I can only say I stay on task and I have a fantastic job and my Employers love the job I do. I also take 60mg of cybalta a day and I take xanax 1 time a day, sometimes I take more :( trying not to do that; but I deal with the public and I do not want to be shakey. Does anyone else take the cocktail of drugs I described?
