I started taking Vyvanse when Adderall XR stopped working for me about 2 years ago. At first the side effects were strong ( I started at 50 mg) including social reclusion, irritability, dry mouth, stomach problems, and loss of appetite- the problem was I didn't notice the social side effects- I just wanted to get things done and nothing else mattered. Luckily with time the social side effects faded but I still experience loss of appetite and stomach problems. I also experience withdrawl when... View full comment

I discontinued use and thank god Costco returned my money.

I have to say that after only two months on the pill, I was already thrilled with how little my period bothered me. I used to faint, throw up multiple times a day, get cold sweats, etc. to the point that I did not leave my bed on days when I had my period. And th... View full comment

I wish this drug was available in the US. It is a very popular drug in the rest of the world. I know it was a taken off the shelves in a few countries for some kidney problems that might have been caused in young children and others by it, so I am sure it will never make it here, but it is an effective pain killer if taken moderately, maybe not every day. The sachets of powder are way more effective for the migraines than the pill form, in fact, the pills don't work, only the powder form do... View full comment

I found that if I just take my vitamins everyday and drink lots of water and eat lots of fruits and veggies I'm better off than the side effects and little positive effect I got from Prozac.
