I would take it when you have a day off because, as you said, there may be side effects. You need to take it early in the day though, because it lasts a long time, and if you take it late, you may not be able to get to sleep.

Thanks for your response. That's what I figured too. So tomorrow is the day! I really hope it works! I was on concerta last and that made me miserable! Really keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks again!

Re: Just picked up my Vyvanse 30mg today....
I just picked up my first Vyvanse today too...30 mg. I was only diagnosed last week so this is my first ADHD meds. So far, it's only been two hours and I haven't felt any side effects or any effects yet.
It may take a few hours or even a couple days for noticeable results maybe. I hope it works for both of us, Krissy. Judith |

Re: Just picked up my Vyvanse 30mg today....
I took my first dose around the same time you did. Within 30 minutes, I got a boost in energy and was feeling more alert. Now, I still have the energy, but feel more jittery. Just like I would feel if I drank too much coffee. Nothing unbearable. I do, however, feel a slight tingling sensation in my face. Again, nothing unbearable. Now for the true test: My boyfriend and I are moving soon and I need to get going on cleaning and packing. Without meds, it would be almost impossible for me to stay on task. I'm going to set the stopwatch on my phone and see how long I can go without getting distracted. In the past, it would only be a few minutes.
I'll post at the end of the day and let you know how it went! Would be great if you could let me know how your day went too and if you had any adverse side effects! |

Re: Just picked up my Vyvanse 30mg today....
Hmmm. Well, everyone's different. I definitely felt the difference! It gave me an energy boost and definitely improved my focus. Around 8 or 9, I started to get sleepy, but not the crash I got from my Concerta when I was on it. Today is a different story. I took it around 10am again, and I'm not sure if it's because of the extreme heat we have here, but I just feel really strange. It also could be because I haven't been on any medication in a long time, and that I'm just not used to the "medicated" feeling. Who knows! I'm just going to keep taking it and hope my body gets used to it and the weird feeling goes away.
I hope you start getting some results! Maybe the dosage is just too low for you? Keep me posted!

Re: Just picked up my Vyvanse 30mg today....
I just started the 30mg dose this morning. It took an hour to kick in (although dry mouth started within 10 minutes) and then for about 2-3 hours, I felt heart palpitations, sick to my stomach, lack of appetite, and excessive sweating.
Five hours after taking it, I went to exercise (at noon). I felt extremely exhausted and couldn't even do what I normally do. I also feel apathetic/ambivalent to everything. I am not sure why. I was under the impression that this medicine would actually make me feel more alert, but instead I feel more scattered and depleted than usual. I called the doctor this morning and he said I may need a lower dosage (20 mg). So, I am off of it tomorrow and then start on a lower dosage on Friday. Has anyone else had the unexpected symptoms I have had? |
