Sure, you can split Vyvanse capsules, but why would you want to? The medication is designed to be taken whole for extended release. Splitting it may mess with the effectiveness and could potentially lead to uneven dosing. But hey, it's your body, do what you want - just don't come crying to me if it doesn't work out.
Concerta and Vyvanse are both extended-release central nervous system stimulants. Combining stimulants can increase the risk of cardiac events, cause high blood pressure, and other life-threatening side effects. Only take this combination if your doctor has prescribed both medications to you.
There is currently no evidence to suggest that Vyvanse causes brain damage in individuals who take it for an extended period of time. However, it is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult with a healthcare provider regularly to monitor any potential side effects.
The difference between Xanax and Xanax extended release is that the XR, or extended release lasts all day while releasing medication over time.
no it is not extended release if it is extended then there should be ER written on pack
is extended and prolonged the same
If your ADHD medication is wearing off too quickly, you should consult with your doctor about alternative treatments: Adderall XR, Vyvanse, and Daytrana are all extended-release preparations of stimulant medications. Strattera is a non-stimulant option that lasts longer than most stimulants. If you are taking an amphetamine-based ADHD medication (Adderall, Dexedrine, Vyvanse) consuming acidic drinks before taking medication could reduce the effectiveness.
No; Vyvanse contains lisdexamfetamine.
It will show up as Amphetamine (whether legal: adderall, dexedrine, and vyvanse, or illegal: speed). Unfortunately they can not tell which you took, all it is to them is "AMPHETAMINE". SO unless you have a valid prescription you should be fine (not in all cases).
Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is an inactive prodrug to Dextro-amphetamine that's broken down in the digestive tract somewhere into Levo-lysine (the AA) and Dextro-amphetamine. About 50% of the active compounds in Adderall are Dextro-amphetamine salts, the other half being two racemic amphetamine salts. So, Adderall consists of roughly 75% Dextro-amphetamine, the ultimate active metabolite of lisdexamfetamine, and 25% Levo-amphetamine. There are also differences in their pharmacokinetics. Adderall comes in immediate and extended release formulas. Vyvanse has a very long effetcs duration, longer then the extended release Adderall. I would take Vyvanse in the morning and always be good for the rest of the day, while the Adderall XRs wore off earlier.

You can cut it in half, but it would defeat the purpose of "extended release"
