Vyvanse

Please post comments about your experience treating your child's ADHD symptoms with Vyanse... Did you notice any side effects? What dosage worked best? Would you recommend it?

about vyvanse

I already put something up about it so I'll make it short: It worked great at first but it brought out a mood disorder in My 8 yr old. She was not first checked for susceptibility. We have other family with mood disorders. So the phyciatrist told us that it brought it out and we are trying a med to stabilize her mood before we reintroduce the vyvanse. The only problem we had was that witch we could not control and when she was coming off of it her mood was bad and she was tired, lethargic and vomiting.

Great Results

I have had absolutely wonderful results with Vyvanse for my both of my twin sons, as has one of my closest friends with her son. It lasts 13 hours, so there is no "crash" right about homework time, and there have been no personality changes or appetite suppression for either boy. On of my son's personality was awful on Strattera, and I feel like he's back now. I think every drug is different for every kid, however. I had to try a few before I found the one that works for attention and doesn't have the personality or appetite side affects. I have found it's best to work with your doctor and let him now immediately if you see dramatic changes in your child. Good luck................
