Adderall X R and fatigue. HELP!
I also previously took
Vyvanse
and didn’t have this issue, but due to my insurance, my Dr can only prescribe Aderall X R. Does anyone else have this issue, and if so, how do you deal with it? It’s gotten to the point that I’m afraid to be driving towards end of dose because I’m so lethargic!

ADHD adolescents who had a stroke at birth
Since it stopped working she’s trying a low dose of
Vyvanse
. She’s struggling with her math and chemistry classes right now.

motivation in creative fields
I'm on
vyvanse
50mg but i might figure to get my dosage raised, but even if it does keep me focused, i'll focus on diving hours into minecraft or whatever instead of my homework.

Could ADHD drugs ultimately harm children’s brains?
She just tried
Vyvanse
again (which she briefly tried age 13 but stopped due to anxiety). So age 17 she tried
Vyvanse
20mg, 30mg and 40 mg. None worked at all.

Behavior Charts and teacher issues
I have already had to report her for violating FERPA when she told my son's class (while he was not in the room) that he was off his medicine and like her and he insulin he just needed to take it (he is on Intuniv but had side effects from
Vyvanse
and begged to be off it).

Choosing ehe right type of High School Private vs Public
I'm worried about several things including will he be ready for college, will he be able to handle all the independence that comes with being a high school student, and will he choose the wrong crowd and experiment with drugs because he's already taking
Vyvanse
.

New Medication after Vyvanse?
He then was changed to
Vyvanse
70 mg for the last 6 years. Although, there have always been struggles, the medication was really a godsend (at least until the dosage wore out it’s welcome and then was altered again.... too bad there’s not a app to figure that out! :-) ).

This is working for us! Want to help someone else if this story looks similar to your child or teen
He was on
Vyvanse
the longest and we took him off at the end of middle school due to severe weight loss, severe mood swings, and other side effects. He has struggled in 9th grade with both disruptive behavior and grades, so we decided to try a new stimulant (evekeo)).

IEP ? 504?
He takes
vyvanse
30 mg for school. Each year he starts off well, but by January, the rest of the school year is a disaster. I get phone calls several ones a week about his behavior. Not listening, talking back, talking too much, classroom interruption, disrespect, getting put out of class.

Loud and strange noises caused by ritalin?
He’s already been through focalin and
vyvanse
but had to stop because of major letdowns if meds are the cause. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

One journey complete. The best chapter has just begun!
I started going to doctors, was diagnosed with adult adhd, and started on
vyvanse
in February of last year. Since then, I have lost 100lbs and got myself lean and fit. I eat properly, and have found that I feel better day in and day out.

Still here, still struggling. A mother's tears.
He was on methylphenidate and
Vyvanse
and both did not work for him. He has a 504 on file and I let the teachers know and for the most part they honor it. His grades in a few of his classes, math and science have not been good. I cringe when I open Power school.
