Vyvanse Doubling Dosage Safe?

Updated

My son takes 50mg of Vyvanse, I noticed some missing he said if he forgets one he doubles up the next day. He's 150 pounds and 16 years old. He has never did that before, can he do that?

I wouldn't recommend doubling any kind of drugs, unless okayed by his M.D.

I just read about Vyvanse on WebMD and they state the MAX recommended dose is 70mg. I would say your son definitely should NOT double the dose.
