5 Most Common Side Effects on Vyvanse Lisdexamfetamine In the First Month of Use and Solutions 

The music is a making me loose track also..

Me to! I'm 60 but only got diagnosed at 50! After two of my kid's had? I just thought I was busy!👍🇭🇲

@@susanburns276 I'm glad you were able to get some answers! Just knowing you can do something about it helps so much than being left in the dark about it.

literally didn’t even notice! (ADHD-PI) 🫠

Right away and had to rewatch some. Lol

Sorry you missed the message. On my editing system the voice over is fine but I recognize that we're not all using the same sound systems. So my latest videos I've stopped adding music.

I agree the music is so annoying. Good information but come on.

omg yes the music wads so distracting

yeah... as a brazilian ADHD, i had to activate the automatically generated captions to be able to pay attention considerably, even tho i'm at meds now lul

duuu duuduuduuuu duduuuduuuuu. the voice faded into the background and realized it only after i read this. atleast i watched 5minutes 😂

It was distracting and looks so inefficient (using 2 hands in video)

yeah that means he's ambisexual. i saw it on spongebob.

Thats how you know the meds are working

@@Buttsac I went to a doctor, all he did was suck blood from my neck. Don't go see Dr. Acula.

@@kingdavid7516 lol ambidextrous and I saw it on spongebob too

Ha ha. My party trick is that I'm Ambidextrous.

Wow, that sounds good. What dose are you on? My doc says not to expect any effect on my starting dose

@@jrr2045What is the point then? 😂 My starting was 30mg, which did nothing, so we went up to 50mg, but we can’t get it in stock, so I’m on 60 (2x30).

Glad im not the only one. My feet too

I’m having this problem as well. I believe it’s a circulation issue

You are ambidextrous. Don't you type with two hands?

Thanks. I think...

Lol distracting right

Not at the same time. I would have started the Vyvanse first and then layered the effexor on after once stable dose achieved. Otherwise if something goes off the rails you can't troubleshoot which was responsible.

Sorry Ko. I've cut music on more recent videos. I'm just too busy with work now to reshoot those affected vids and reupload.

@@doctorsecrets is there a way I can contact you?

Interresting! Is this together with psychologist appointments to dig into the mental part of it?

Very welcome

@@TheOdinHammer im going to break on weekends too. Unfortunately I shouldve worried more about anxiety, as thats my main sode effect, on day 6 now and hoping it will subside and not be a permanent thing.

Noy having appetite is the worst thing ever it sucks especially since I'm working out a lot and I can't when i don't eat enough

Thanks. These are only the 5 most common side effects, not an exhaustive list of side effects or which there are many more.

Are you drinking more water? This is also the case for me lol. I think it's the increase of water due to dry mouth.

I’m guessing the 3% refers to the average amount of weight people lose, not the percentage of people who lose weight.

Actually I'm much more hungry with 30mg Vyvanse. I also think I need upper the dosage to 50mg with my Doctor.

I have this same question

Good observation but I've never seen it to the degree that someone directly attributed their dental decay to the dry mouth.

Yeah chiropractic and avoiding caffeine and bad posture fixed my headaches but after six days on vyvanse I've had a headache for three days. Many people say it subsides but I'm not sure if I can continue

Hello! I hope things are improving for you. I saw somewhere on another video that the person was on 30mg and had side effects but when they were upped to 50mg it actually all went away. So increasing the dose may help. I hope you find the balance with it

Same!

That's a question you should take up with your doctor not the internet. My god..

I also suffered from this on stimulants. My dr put me on Guanfacine 1mg at bedtime. This is a blood pressure medicine used also as a non stimulant adhd med. I still take my stimulant in the a.m. but the guanfacine has helped with that frustrated feeling. Hope this helps a little but talk with your dr.

That’s so strange. I actually found Vyvanse helped with mood control. I can’t say I ever had an anger issue but after starting Vyvanse I noticed I wasn’t annoyed by little things as easily and find myself suddenly calm without 15 thoughts at all times.

Same thing here. Not sure what to do, I don’t want to quit the meds as it was EXTREMELY difficult for any prescribers to cooperate & let me have it.

@@hckynrscnd8916 I can study fine but in moments where I’m not doing work everything kinda irks me

@@5050hawaiianstar my therapist and I talked saying that your doctor could be notified because it’s also possible that you could have an anxiety disorder instead of ADHD, that’s not a guarantee, but maybe mentioning it to your doctor may give you some options

I"ve never seen Vyvanse prescribed for binge eating before but I"m a Family Doctor, not psychiatrist so maybe they use it off label for this but I do not know.

@@doctorsecrets it was FDA approved to prescribe for moderate to severe binge eating disorder a few years ago

I have been on it for several years now for the treatment of B.E.D. It has been a life changing drug for me.

Sorry about that. I've stripped music from all more recent videos for that reason.

Maybe its due to the sweating , u had th same problem I just wash twice a day now and pack on deodorant

How are you feeling now?

@@BF-xq9zc Yeah I'm fine.

@@tylercoffin2640 currently my situation. My headaches and dizziness are insane. 5 days. And still having these symptoms! How long did it take for you to get relief?

Struggling with exact same on vyvanse, how'd u end up going 6 months later?

@@N8ivAN1mal ironically I’m back in adderall and doing just fine. Guess my body just needed to get used to it. I’m on a low dose. I had insomnia issues with vyvanse

What are your heart rates i am taking 30mg vyvanse as 53kg and 1,7 meter person and resting i am on 110 - 120 and working up to 140- 150 wich scares me since vyvanse makes me feel restless and nervous inside but also calm mentally, this is my 3rd day and is my 1st medication i have ever taken

@@mrbulletproofxXx Day 1 for me and also my first prescription. Exactly the same experience. Found I was a bit exhausted at the end of the day but loved the mental clarity and calm.

I’ve recently tried addy 10 mg XR , then Dexedrine 10mg xr. They both made me feel like I was gonna have a stroke. I started vyvanse 2 weeks ago and it seems to be smoother it just makes me piss constantly

Did it stop working for you after 4 years?

@@stever507 It works but I just dont feel the best when im on it anymore.

Everyone I think on these meds who DONT abuse them AND have adhd / add for REAL, this seems to be an issue. I got diagnosed about 3 years or 4 years ago now, and I started on vyvanse didn’t like it thought I needed adderall and suffered the whole time on it, I got a lot done, but the short 2 and a half years I took it, it for sure had its effects, mainly broken back teeth from clenching without knowing even. Extreme tongue movements, jitters, anger to the tenth degree, cocky confidence, stomach pains, really everything possible, so I finally stopped, I was on xr 30 at the time, and I took a 6-8 month break before I realized I lost the benefits, and living with a girlfriend at the time, she noticed things that she’d never seen and ask me WHY I can’t sit still, WHY this or that, and it turned out I needed something again! So I went on vyvanse 30 mg, then 40 mg, and it works fine for me due to my size I feel like height and weight wise, and it’s not too much, and I can go days without it and not even think about it, I actually look forward to my breaks one to three days off per week due to my work schedule, so sometimes I only get a day off and it’s alright, but I certainly feel it working better at the right dose, but the RIGHT DIET is what helped me get what I need. I don’t drink coffee til an hour after I take it and I usually take it with an ensure or protein shake of some sort, as the medicine works with protein anyway, so you’d be quite suprised the effects protein like a simple 16g ensure high protein shake could do for you when your on this stuff, because it makes it work WAY better, and not saying it makes it unbearable or so much stronger, but I’d call it more effective, more linear, more of an even flow, just overall much better if you change your diet. And vitamin c will practically render it useless, so avoid it til later if you can. That and coffee will make you feel like you took 10 mg instead of 40 mg when it comes to vyvanse. Good luck!

The dose sounds too high so it's persisting into and disrupting your sleep cycle. Another option is to stack Melatonin at night to counterbalance the Vyvanse in the daytime.

@@doctorsecrets thanks so much! I’m only on 30mg vyvanse but I do think maybe I only need 20MG, my doctor recommended we start lowest and then increase instead and see how I go. I also have chronic fatigue syndrome so that doesn’t help so just trying to take it easy while getting treatment with both with is a double whammy that’s for sure. Thanks!

@@tmw7550 Hi. I'm starting this medication soon and also have chronic fatigue, so I certainly don't want to be more tired! May I ask if reducing the dose helped? Thanks.

@@junipercosmic6841 it will help you with energy levels during the day. I’m on 50mg and it’s saved my life. I can actually hold down a job and on a really good salary at my job at a tech startup in London

😜

Then they just gotta up ur dosage I just started and it lasts only 30 mins then I feel like absolute dhit the rest of the day I’m taking 20 starting 30 in two days and I’ll probably cap out at 70-90

@@jusmax374 me too! I was going hard working from home yesterday and literally with 4-6 hours started getting so tired I almost fell asleep at my desk

@@brooklove90 I switched to concerta and for me it was basically the same thing but with way worse comedowns but the vyvanse 60 lasted me like 3 hours

So do I.sleepy,brain fog,hungry,last 4 hrs.and i upped it to 30mg cant tolerate.

Do you drink coffee that affected me

He’s a god damn pothead what is this shit!

Talk to you doctor please

I’ve been on it for 5-6 years now. The poop thing shortly after taking it has always been normal (for me). And a nice way to stay regular lol. Also, I have to eat right as I am taking it, to avoid feeling nauseous or sick. Just try to eat something small in the mornings with it. (:

Did you continued with the medicine? Did the diarrhea continue? I am only a few days in and the diarrhea gives me anxiety as I work all day..,.

@@oulart unfortunetly i have continued with the medication. It does help with focus. Otherwise wouldn’t have been on it as long as i have. All i can recommend is eat something before you take it. So you don’t feel like shit, after you have shit your guts out.

Yes you can have coffee while on Vyvanse but it may contribute to insomnia and feeling jittery.

It makes you anxious as fuck. Depends tho. Some people expirience it differently

NO! I been on this for YEARS, will make your stomach hurt and feel hella nauseous. I wouldn’t recommend Orange juice either…

Welcome :)

Its crazy how it works differently on everyone. Before I started taking it I read that it can take 2-3 hours to work but for me it starts working within half an hour, same as Adderall. I have no appetite but only for like 3 hours, then I'm hungry again. But if you are anything like me you may not think you are Losing weight even if you are because it might not show up on the scale for a month

Try taking it on an empty stomach

My son is I just want him to go back to his old self

Did you ever get tremors? Like uncontrollable shaking?

@@wyattshea1792 cause of anxiety? If you mean Elvanse then you should have taken way more than u need it.

​@@wyattshea1792I got that on adderal xr, it's From taking it every single day you need to give yourself breaks or you'll end up wirh serotonin syndrome.

But you type with both hands without being confused don't ya?

​@@doctorsecrets I do. I never get confused with my hands when I'm typing

I also use both my eyes, both my ears, and both my legs 😜

Maybe you are eating all your calories before bed when the meds have worn off. Try to do like he suggested and have a protein shake or force feed yourself something healthy and nutrient dense at meal times so your body doesn't try to make up all those missed calories/nutrients at bedtime, when it will end up wasted and cause weight gain and lead to other problems down the road. Stick to healthy food choices. 💚

@@meetvirginia717 this is exactly what I do haha . But I thought I that would be okay because that's what intermittent fasting is not eating for 16 hours

Lol, I take both.

@@cjfrost1441 your Dr. Prescribes you both?

@@brooklove90 Yeah

There's no one right answer, but we commonly use low dose concerta, biphentin or vyvanse.

Be cautious this could stunt their growth

This is my second day taking it for binge eating disorder and I’ve felt light palpitations, nothing too bad, but yesterday afternoon I had a headache and nausea , I’m doing better today. Took it at 8am yesterday and 11:15 today to have the headache while sleeping hopefully 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@@Lililililili333 Thank you very much. It looks like the first week is hard, I hope it works for you. Keep it up.

Going from Adderall to Vyvanse I can say for sure I get way less heart palpitations, if any. I do get really dizzy if I stand up too quickly or walk up a bunch of stairs though :/

@@brooklove90 drink a lot of liquid and try to eat healthy. I did not have any symptoms but my Dr started very low amount and it increases 10 mg every month.

@@jennybrodrig how is it going for u?

Usually we suggest Melatonin first for secondary insomnia from amphs
