Is Taking 50mg of Vyvanse twice daily ok?

No, it is not recommended. The highest daily dose is 70mg; taken shortly after awakening in the morning. This level of dosage (70mg) is reached after a month or more of slight (10mg) weekly increases to build up to the 70mg dose. Taking 100mg at once would be incredibly dangerous and even if you spread the doses apart (i.e. 8 am and 1 pm) it would be just as dangerous because of Vyvanse's long half-life.

Will Vyvanse show up in a unrine test as methadone?

not my experience. negative results for meth-amphetamine, but positivie for amphetamines.

Is there any difference between the soon-to-be-generic Adderall XR and the new Vyvanse by Shire Pharmaceuticals that would justify switching to Vyvanase given that both claim to last up to 12 hours?

Vyvanase and Adderall both exert their effect in the brain through the same active chemical (dextroamphetamine). The difference between them is that they use different mechanisms for slowing the release of active drug, and that Adderall contains levoamphetamine as well and Vyvanase does not.

Having looked over the prescribing information for Vyvanase, it sounds like the time release mechanism in Vyvanase is significantly better, and therefore you should expect a smoother 12 hours of effects with fewer peaks and valleys.

Vyvanase may also have fewer side-effects than Adderall due to the absence of levoamphetamine. People's bodies differ in their response to drugs, so the only way to know which drug will work better for you is to try them both. One thing that is certain, though, is that Vyvanase will be more expensive, probably by a large margin.

Can you take adipex-p with Vyvanse?

Theoretically, Yes, as both have been proven to suppress appetite. However, keep in mind that both are stimulants and there is a potential for a negative interaction or more intense side effects.

Will vyvanse raise blood pressure?

Typically, if someone has normal BP, it won't. However, if your blood pressure is already high it might cause more stress on your heart and could raise your BP quite a bit.

How do you separate the binder in Vyvanse so its dextroamphetamine?

The binder is only going to break down in stomach acid. You need to puke and add a dab of vomit to the powder to ingest it any other way than orally

Can you pilot a plane while taking Vyvanse?

If you were prescribed Vyvanse and had been taking it for a while, you would know how the medicine acts in your body. And it's not my recommendation, but I believe then..you would be fine. You get used to the drug to where it's normal. I don't think the passengers of the plane would like to know their pilot is on anything that could interfere with him/her flying the plane.

Is it safe to take percaset 10 mg when you take vyvance?

You would be mixing downers with uppers so i would have to say it would be a bad idea, especially if you were to drink alcohol with it as well.

How much time does Vyvanse need to pass a drug test?

Vyvanse 70mg in AMk and 20mg adderall in afternoon is this OK?

That is the exact dosage of adderall and vyvanse that I take per my doc and it is working well for me

I took 100mg of Vyvanse and im about 5'8 200 lbs am i gonna be alright?

Yes you will be fine. Even though you ingested a larger-than-suggested amount, the chemical makeup of Vyvance (Lisdexamfetamine) is such that the psychoactive ingredient, d-amphetamine, does not become active in the body until the Lisdexamfetamine is hydrolyzed in the body. Therefore, you do not experience the full potential of the drug at once, you only feel the amount that your body has processed so far. So therefore, by taking a large dose, you did not ingest a large amount of aphetamine and you will not overdose. However, you will feel the effects of the drug for an extended period of time since Vyvance is designed to be the new and improved version of Adderall XR.

Will Vyvance show up as an amphetamine?

Yes vyvanse does show up as amphetamines. I take a drug test every 2 weeks for my psychiatrist, and it shows up everytime but it is prescribed.

If you have good response to Vyvanse does it mean you do have Adult ADHD?

No; Vyvanse contains lisdextafetamine which is a prodrug of dextroamphetamine. Amphetamines will cause a "good response" or increased feelings of well-being and focus in almost all individuals who consume it. It does not indicate that you have ADHD. Vyvanse is addictive and should be used cautiously, as it is a scheduled II drug that caries penalties for consumption without a prescription.

Can you abuse Vyvanse?

Short answer: yes.

Vyvance is basically the same thing as other ADD medications except it is bonded with the amino acid lysine. Meaning that after it goes into your liver, the amino acid is removed and you are left with the active ingredient of Vyvanse, which is "Dextroamphetamine" It's designed that way to try and reduce the potential for abuse, because the drug won't work if someone were to snort it to try and get high. It only works when taken orally. It can still be abused that way.

What category does Adderall fall in a five panel drug test?

It is a amphetamine and will show up on a 5 panel. If you don't have a script for it, give yourself at least 4 days clean to be sure. It has a short half life, 10hrs for most everyone.

What will Vyvanse show up as?

I'm assuming that you referring to what it will show up as on a drug test. This medication will show as an amphetamine or if they do a more in depth test dextroamphetamine (the active ingredient).

Will 1 70 Mg Vyvanse same as 30 Mg. Adderall pill hurt a dog?

Yes! Seriously don't do it 70mg to a dog is like 500mg for a person you do not want to be doing that!

Can you break Vyvanse down in lemon juice to IV it?

No.

Vyvanse is broken down by an enzyme in your body. Shooting it up would be the stupidest most assinine thing you could try. Your body does NOT like acids being shot into your bloodstream.

You can not plug it. You can not snort it. You can not crush it up. You can not snort it. You can not IV it, no matter WHAT you do. BASICALLY: It is ABUSE PROOF because it is completely inert until the enzyme I mentioned comes along and changes it into dextroamphetamine.

About the only thing you can do to get a bit more from an ORAL dose is to

A.) Eat protein. This causes your body to release Trypsin, the enzyme that breaks it down.

B.) Have some baking soda to adjust your body PH so it isn't removed from your body faster.

And don't even THINK about trying to shoot it up by breaking it down in a trypsin solution. Trypsin is a DIGESTIVE ENZYME. It DIGESTS THINGS. You do NOT want Trypsin digesting your organs after you shoot it up, do you?

Will your decrease in appetite get better over time on Vyvanse?

It more then likely will not. It sounds like you might need to switch medications or decrease the dose.

Can Vyvanse help a drug addict?

It really depends. Untreated ADHD is associated with an increased risk of substance use and addiction, so in this case, treating the ADHD may be helpful. It also depends on what drug(s) you are addicted to. If you are addicted to speed, then taking Vyvanse (which is an amphetamine) to treat ADHD may not be the best idea, although it does have a lower abuse potential than Adderall and many other stimulant ADHD medications. In almost any case, it is advised that the addiction itself is treated and is under control prior to beginning medications for ADHD treatment.

Is Vyvanse sniff able?

No, it isn't. The drug manufacture (Shire) has bonded the active compound (dextroamphetamine) with an amino acid (lyso?) rendering it useless when inhaled. The amino acid component only breaks down in gastric juices in the stomach; then rendering the active compound to its intended state.

Drug interactions Aspirin and Vyvanse?

There are no known drug to drug interactions between these two medications, making them safe to take together. Make sure to contact you primary care provider prior to taking these two medications to ensure that it is safe.

Can mixing Adderall and Vyvanse be harmful?

Yes, mixing Adderall and Vyvanse can be extremely harmful to the body.

Both medications are CNS stimulants, and have very serious side effects on their own. The combination can be dangerous. Do not attempt this unless your physician informed you to do so.

Even if you had a prior prescription to Adderall and later have Vyvanse added, the physician should know about your prior prescription and inform you of how to switch over. It is always recommended you inform your physician if you take Adderall before being prescribed anything from them (unless of course they are your primary physician or caregiver, in which case they will already know)
