It seems that Vyvanse is released slowly and is therefore less euphoric than standard amphetamine.

New River Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRPH) designed lisdexamfetamine dimesylate as an inactive prodrug in which d-amphetamine is bonded to l-lysine, a naturally occurring amino acid. Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate remains inactive until converted and active d-amphetamine is gradually released.
In this single blind, placebo- and active-controlled, single-dose escalation study, lisdexamfetamine dimesylate tended to be less euphoric than d-amphetamine sulfate 40 mg, and had a later peak effect.
