Guest guest Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 My son did not do well on it. He was miserable, way more repetitive, etc. He was only on it for two days and we won't let him near it again. I hear that other people do well on it, though. Does anyone give their child Vyvanse? If so, how are they doing on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Gave it to my son for a few months. He did ok with it. It lasted a little longer than the ritalin. But he gets violent outbursts when any of these add meds are in his system so we stopped them. We are now trying a more natural approach with DHA(fish oil).

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 My daughter takes it for ADD/ADHD no problems. My son had been taking Focalin and one day I gave him my daughter's medication, the Vyvanse, by mistake. It seemed to increase his attention so we switched him to Vyvanse. Over time we noticed an upsurge in tics. We started taking him to a psychologist who indicated that the increase in tics could be a result of the Vyvanse. We took him off the Vyvanse and put him back on the Focalin and his tics have pretty much stopped. > > > Does anyone give their child Vyvanse?  If so, how are they doing on it? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
