VYVANSE  (LISDEXAMFETAMINE DIMESYLATE):  Lisdexamfetamine is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as part of a total treatment plan, including psychological, social, and other treatments. It may help to increase the ability to pay attention, stay focused, and stop fidgeting. Lisdexamfetamine may also be used to treat binge eating disorder (BED). It may help to reduce the number of binge eating days. This medication is a stimulant. It is thought to work by restoring the balance of certain natural chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain. This medication is not recommended for use for weight loss due to the risk of serious side effects.   (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA) FDA Approval Date: 2007-02-23

 4   Euphoria at too high a dose. Urinary retention (difficulty urinating). Three-day "crash" after five days of use. It's speed. Sure, it's time-release, but it's still speed. Makes me feel great all day! I can sit in one place and think about going to work for hours now. Got lots of great ideas, too! When it wears off about 10 hours later, I forget them all, but that's what speed has always done to me. Not sure how long I can continue this stuff, because after five days of prescribed use, I have to take three days of recovery time. F 44 3 months

 3  CFS and add Noticed an increased heart rate. Mild outbreak, rash-like reaction. Odd sensation of legs feeling cold and disconnected from my body. I would have to touch them to make sure they were warm. Very good at focusing your attention and getting tasks done. Actually helped with the pain I've experienced with the CFS. Gives you energy, but you don't really notice any racey type feelings in your mind. Helps to have energy and focus. Helped my moods tremendously. I felt very happy while taking it. I had to stop because I noticed an increased outbreak in cold-sores. I developed 3 while taking it over 4 weeks. I also had a mild headache when I started it and also a very bad headache when I stopped. Overall though, I found the experience to be very positive and would recommend it. I did not experience weight loss which is thought to be common with these types of meds. F 35 1 months
