Overdose Vyvanse

Yesterday I took 3 zanaflex at about 4:30pm then at about 5am I took a vyvanse. It 3:35 where I'm at. I'm experiencing severe stomach pain. It hurts when I move even when I talk I can't eat anything I can barely drink water. Am I going to be ok. I'm 13 years old I weigh 106 pounds and I'm 5,6 ## The vyvanse was a full 70mg plz let me know if I will be ok ## How are you doing? Did you suffer any other adverse effects? Are these medications prescribed for you? Any time this happens and you fear that you may be in danger, you should contact poison control or go to your nearest emergency care facility. By combining muscle relaxants, which is essentially a downer, with the stimulant, you give you body conflicting messages and it's not sure what to do/which message to ...

First and foremost let me say that if u are reading this STOP TAKING VYVANSE IN LARGE DOSES and talk to your doctor... So now that that is out of the way let me tell u my overdose experience and how I dealt with it. I am 24 yrs old, weight is about 156lbs, height is 4'11. I had intended on only taking the drug to lose weight, however like u who's reading this I have become dependent and upped the dose till I again like u had to frantically go searching the internet to see if I was going to die. Well let me say this I am not a Dr and this is my own personal experience so after reading this if u are still extremely worried about ur health always go to the Dr. Ok let's get started... I have taken up to 560mg of vyvanse in 48 hr period that's 280mg in 24hrs. U probably haven...

Am I going to be OK? ## I took 210mg of Vyvanse and took 60mg of loratab all in about 12 hours? I thought my heart was going to jump right out of my skin. I do not have adhd but I am on pain killers for a previous back surgery ## I just want to see my reply! ## Hi Stephanie - I'm not seeing that Vyvanse has a drug interaction with Lortab, but don't rule that out as a possibility. I would like to ask if you were taking the Vyvanse as directed in your prescription? If you took 210mg in one day, was it 3 doses of the 70mg? As to the Lortab, how many tablets did you take over the 12 hours and can you tell me what the amount of Hydrocodone was in each tablet? (Lortab contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone). Lastly, rapid respiration and cardiac arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) are sy...

I have put a full day of studying in while on 70 mg of vyvanse. Roughly 8 hours of intense study. I am now mentally fatigued and want to go to sleep. My question is would taking another Vyvanse be effective when my brain is so tired ? or would it just be some what of a waste to take while brain dead. ? ## Have you consulted your doctor? You shouldn't take an extra dose, without your doctor's approval and, in addition, 70mgs is the maximum daily dose that's been tested as safe. Thus, taking more may result in overdose.

I accidentally took a 2nd dose of my 60mg vyvanse daily dosage. I had completely forgotten I had already taken it earlier. I am 135 lbs. and a stay at home mother. Will I be okay? Please advise. ## Hello, JMarie! How are you doing? Did anything happen? In cases such as this, you should always contact your doctor or poison control. While there are always people online, like myself, that are happy to help, if we can, we cannot administer life saving aid, if that is what's required. This is a stimulant, so an overdose does have the potential to be dangerous, it could cause a dangerously elevated heart rate and hypertension, so it's not something to be taken lightly. ## Sounds like the vyvanse isn't working if u forgot u took it in the first place.

I am an adult with ADD. I've done very well with Vyvanse 50 for past 5 yrs. but new insurance formulary won't pay for this. The nearest substitute I can find is dextroamp-amphet and I'm told that 20mg twice daily or 20mg + 10mg mid afternoon should be equivalent. Don't think I can get both rx'd per month. Can I split a 20mg ER cap? Will this cause a huge crash? I found Vyvanse very smooth and insomnia was seldom a problem. Thanks. ## No, you can't split the ER ones, since they are time released. Doing so may cause you to accidentally take too much of the medication, at once, which could result in overdose. What has your doctor advised? They should be able to help you find an equivalent that you can try. The FDA classifies this medication as stimulant, so it carri...

I would like to say that I am a 31 year old man I am 5"11 and weigh 320 pounds I recently took 7 x 60mg vyvanse and need to see what I can expect to happen and if I should consult a doctor or poison control center please? I don't need people telling me how stupid it was to take such a high dose because I already know that I just want to see if there anyone else who has done that high of a dose and their experience with it ## You need to contact your doc or emergency room asap your size has little to do with absorption of this drug so please seek medical attention no reason to risk your life. We all do things we wish we can take back. YOU CAN!!! By CALLING FOR ASSISTANCE. Post back when you can cause some people do have empathy and care, believe it or not...... peace,. Kenie ## I...
