Vyvsnse Switch Adderall

Updated

Ive been on Vyvanse for almost 2 years w/no success, I was on Adderall XR & imm. Release before. It worked better, do I need to wean off the Vyvanse? All I have is 70 mg Vyvsnse capsules? I'm hoping I can just switch. Thank you very much!

Have you consulted your doctor?

These stimulant medications can be kind of touchy, some people do well with a direct switch, as long as the dosage is equivalent, but some don't.

In such cases, it is always best to seek medical advice to discuss which way of doing it is the best approach for you to take.

I was recently diagnosed adhd. I have trouble reading and retaining information and feel cloudy in deep thought. I am 50 and 5'9" 195. I have tried aderall 10mg, focalin and finally vyvance 40mg. All of them cause me to be uncomfortably wired, nervous, and jittery. Vyvance seemed to work best but caused the most intence nervousness. I felt like it took alot of energy to contain myself. Should I reduce my vyvance dosage in half to 20mg and see if that works? If I did not have so much trouble focusing I would give up because I hate the amphetamine feeling. I was told that if you are truly ADHD that these meds would not have that effect.
