The highest dose available for Vyvanse is 70 mg, so you would have to take two 50 mg capsules. You would have to contact your insurance company to see if they will charge double for having twice the amount of a monthly prescription.

Can adults take Vyvanse for energy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, Vyvanse isn't prescribed for any type of weight control treatment. Vyvanse is classified as an amphetamine and amphetamines are useful for weight control treatment (and were used for this until the 1980s). But, amphetamines are also extremely additive and because of this physicians are no longer allowed to prescribe them for weight control treatment.

What happens when you snort Vyvanse?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vyvanse is a prodrug developed with an amino acid, l-lysine and dextroamphetamine. The fact that the drug is attached to the amino acid requires the digestive route to active the amphetamine within Vyvanse. Vyvanse was designed to deter abuse and to provide smoother coverage of ADHD symptoms through a day - some studies showing up to 14 hours of symptom relief.

Snorting Vyvanse will not result in a faster onset of actions.

Can you mix Adderall with Vyvanse and alcohol?

Correct Answer: NO - You Should NOT Drink Alcohol while Taking Vyvanse

Alternative Answer: If you are taking Vyvanse and choose to drink - you need to be very careful. Even if you have never had a history of substance abuse - - you could potentially open a door to abuse that you wish you never opened. Some people will tell you that Vyvanse will make you feel like you don't need to drink very much - - however, everyone is different. After a few drinks, you may feel like you need a boost, and you may be tempted to take another pill - - DO NOT DO THIS!!! Taking multiple Vyvanse Pills has been a terrible experience and has nearly ruined my life. The more pills that you take, the more you can drink without crashing. During this time - you become completely detached from the real world, and it's possible that you could become violent, and lash out at your loved ones for no reason.

Seriously - - do not drink while taking Vyvanse....

What is Vyvanse?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vyvanse is a central nervous stimulant which affects chemicals in the brain, increasing concentrations of certain neurotransmitters. Vyvanse is approved to treat ADHD in both children and adults. Vyvanse is the brand-name for lisdexamfetamine. Lisdexamfetamine is a prodrug of dextroamphetamine. Dextroamphetamine is a controlled substance in most countries and is only dispensed under the authorization of a doctor.

Dextroamphetamine works by increasing two chemicals in the brain: dopamine and norepinephrine. Both chemicals have been shown to play a role in focus and attention, and by raising these levels dextroamphetamine is able to help a person concentrate and sit still for longer periods of time.

Vyvanse carries unique properties due to being a prodrug of amphetamine. Vyvanse is inactive until an enzyme works to activate allowing a longer duration of symptom relief (up to 14 hours) and less abusable properties since it must be swallowed to become active.

Vyvanse is available in doses of 20mg, 30mg, 40mg, 50mg, 60mg, and 70mg. In Canada, Vyvanse is only available in doses of 20mg, 40mg, and 60mg.

What does Vyvanse do?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This depends if you have ADHD or not. If you do have ADHD, it will calm you down, and it will be prescribed to you. If you do not have ADHD it will make you hyper, jittery, nervous, and sometimes a bit scary. It will NOT be prescribed if you don't have ADHD. In any case, you will stop eating or sleeping, and easily become addicted to it.
