Vyvanse Review

Neuro

I tried Vyvanse 20 mg for one day and while it seemed to give me more energy, I didn't feel like it improved my focus. Here are the pros and cons:

Pros:

Slightly improved energy
Improved memeroy
Improved learning ability
Decreased appetite
Decreased loss of thought. No more spacing out when focusing on tasks

Cons:

Heart rate increase, heart felt like it was beating out of my chest
Increased anxiety
Cold feet and hands, poor blood circulation
Felt tense, like I was on edge

Overall, considering the side effects I don't think it was very helpful for me. Modafinil gives me the same benefits without the side effects.

I have been taking Vyvanse now off and on for about a year. I absolutely notice the difference when I am not taking it. My doctor started me off with 50 mg but now I am on 70 mg. I was afraid of how I would feel especially with the increase in the dosage. Actually I refused to get the increase of dosage filled at the pharmacy but things began to get out of control when I stopped taking them and so I decided to start back taking the meds. The 70 mg dosage was even better than the 50mg dosage. It has helped me focus more and I have more energy than I have had in quite some time. It controls my temper and though I didn't have a huge eating problem I am overweight and noticed that it curb my appetite. I do love this medication."
