Vyvanse

Vyvanse has been shown in clinical trials to last from 12 hours to upwards of 14 hours. The amount varies for each individual.

Possibly the first time you take it. Different variables come in to play, for example, if you eat before taking then the effect can be cut in half, if not almost neutralized entirely. Digestion plays a major role in the outcome of the effect with this medication. To gain the full effect, take it before you eat, but drink some soda or eat a candy bar through out to help give your body some energy, milk works very well in helping settle your stomach, since you won't have an appetite for hours after taking this. Just aswell you"ll probably not going to be sleeping when you first begin taking it. Its better to allow your body to gradually become a custom to it, after a few weeks to a month or so, your appetite while taking this medication should improve. As with any narcotic, self-control and common sense is key. Trust me, I know about it all to well !!

You can let it break down in acids such as lemon juice or orange juice.

Zyrtec (cetirizine) and Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) have no known major drug to drug interactions, and can be taken safely together. However this combination may cause a increased sedating effect, so until you know how severe this effect is; you shouldn't operate a vehicle/heavy machinery because you could fall asleep at the wheel.

Of course I must insist that you clear this answer with a physician and/or a primary healthcare provider.

I began taking Vyvanse June 1st and so far have lost 24 pounds. I was overweight to begin with and needed to loose weight but had a lot of difficulty in the past. I don't think the meds. were 100% to blame for the weight lost because I made an effort to cut calories but it diffinitely helped. I was at a low-normal weight (BMI 19.2) when I started about 6 months ago and I've dropped about 20 pounds. Studies have proven that this medication is linked to weight loss.

Usually no more then a week, but to be completely sure I would say 2 weeks.

Nope, it is a pro-drug, which means it must pass through the liver to be converted into something active. IF you injected it, you would bypass the liver, wasting it.

Yes, it gives me energy, while some say it makes them sleepy.

It depends on your weight and tolerance level.

It is listed under the "rare" side effects of oral dosage Vyvanse, as a "less severe" side effect. I myself take a 60 mg Vyvanse daily, and experience dilated pupils if I had recently restarted taking my prescription after a few days without it.

Currently the medication is available in doses of 20mg, 30mg, 40mg, 50mg, and 70mg capsules. The medication is designed to be taken orally once daily soon after waking up. The amount that you take per day should be determined by the prescriber (physician) and should not be adjusted without their consent. Usually the prescriber starts a patient on a low dose (30mg) and adjusts the dose on a weekly (or greater) basis by no more then ten milligrams (mg) at one time; the adjustment in dosing ends when the desired effects are present. Taking large quantities (even 1 or 2 tablets) of this medication at once is not advised and can have the same effects and side effects of any other central nervous system stimulant.

You can take them together, but both medications can have an additive effect on each other; meaning that you could get really drowsy when you take both of them.

There are no recorded interactions between the two drugs. According to Drugs.com, "No results found - however, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. ALWAYS consult with your doctor or pharmacist." From personal experience, I have been prescribed both by the same doctor. Yes technically Vyvanse is a stimulant and Codeine is a CNS depressant...however, both of these are pro-drugs, which means that the active ingredient is not effective until it is metabolized by the liver. Vyvanse releases amphetamine once it is metabolized and Codeine is converted into Morphine once metabolized. As long as you are taking the recommended dosages and are prescribed both by the same doctor or doctors that are aware of each other, you will be good. If your intention is to abuse the two together, there is a chance that you might feel a mild "speedball" effect, which is simply a euphoric feeling one gets from mixing an opiate with a stimulant. This can be dangerous, however it is basically an EXTREMELY mild version of the effects produced when Heroin is mixed with Meth or Cocaine...which people do all the time and do not die from, but some HAVE...so if it's recreational use you are asking for...use at your own risk, but be at least be aware of the way the drugs work with the body...hopefully I provided you enough insight to do just that.

For the technical record: I do not condone the use recreational use of prescription medication, I am simply answering this question in an educational way.

It will not show up on the standard "drugs of abuse" profile. Employment, doctors physicals, military does NOT test for this.

If if it is specifcially tested it can be detected. It generally is tested on the drug panels done on athletes by organizations that ban it from competition. This is generally for international competitions such as the Olympics. The NCAA is reputed not to, however this is unknown.

There are no known drug to drug interactions between these two medications, but it is recommended that you ask your primary care provider (physician) before taking the two together.

No; Vyvanse is the prodrug of dextroamphetamine. Methamphetamine is considered more neurotoxic than dextroamphetamine.

"Yes, there is no problem in taking those 2 drugs together, if both are prescribed and necessary."

Per a pharmacist the Nexium will intensify the valium and depending on the dosage it can become toxic plasma levels. I would not follow the advice above and would contact a doctor or pharmacist and not the internet.

Adderall XR comes in multiple dosage forms, and usually these are easily transcribed to IR or visa versa. However, 20 mg. of IR 3x daily does not have an equivalent XR dosage for the triple daily dose. The manufacturer offers Adderall XR 30 mg. capsules, which would mean you would take the full 60 mg dose (2 capsules) all in the morning. It would end up being equivalent to taking two 30mg dosages of IR, rather than 3x 20 mgs daily. If you feel that the 3x 20 mg. daily dosing of IR is too important, you might want to just stay on that version. You can always talk to your doc and see whats available.

Check with your doctor but probably yes if you're an adult not a child. My psychiatrist gives me vyvanse 70 milligrams which i take in the morning at around 8 oclock and then i take a 15 milligram dose of adderall instant release at around 2-3 oclock. But I'm 21 I wouldn't recommend it for a child unless under the direct supervision of a doctor

PROFIDERALL is what's called a Cognitive Energy Enhancer. It is a new category of supplements that are designed to increase focus, concentration, and energy like Adderall... but without a prescription. It is great as a smart drung, but isn't designed to be an alternative to ADD/ADHD treatment.

If your doctor has prescribed both and knows you are taking them, yes. Just remember that phentermine is addictive, so take it exactly as the doctor said to and don't take extra. Effexor makes most people slightly sleepy, so the phentermine might counteract that side effect and make you wired up. You might have some trouble sleeping on phentermine.

Yes, a person can take Ritalin and Meclizine together. However, the interactions between the two drugs combined can be bad.

It is OK to take your antibiotics and Vyvanse. Remember that erythromycin can be harsh on the stomach. Have some food before you take it. Remember to keep taking the antibiotic even after you feel better. You want to kill all the bacteria and not leave any hiding in your body!

Maybe... Im having the same experiance.. Im on 30mg day, for about 3 weeks.. All of a sudden, numbness (cold) in my left arm and leg... I dont know if its just because Im so focused on work that I dont get up from my desk for 4-6 hours at a time, or if its the drug. Ironically though, as soon as I started moving/walking around, it felt like the blood returned, and the area instantly had a rush of a warm feeling?!?!?!
