Vyvanse-- not as effective 6 hours in. up dose?

Posted by novelagent on June 13, 2012, at 16:18:43

So I am on Vyvanse, and when I take 2 70's, it works really well for 6 hours, but wanes after that. I'm thinking of asking my doc to adjust the dose, maybe adding 20 mg to total 160mg (my insurance co. claims the prior authorization is valid for up to 180mg, so I guess they don't care about how many pills I take as long as it doesn't exceed that dose).
Has anyone else had experience with Vyvanse? If my doc doesn't agree to that, I guess I might just switch back to Dexedrine Spansules, or maybe just do my more intense work in the morning... I really hate how Spansules aren't 1:1 as strong as Dexedrine tabs, and how Dexedrine IR tabs aren't likely going to be back from their shortage until sometime in the fall...
Mikart seems like they're dragging their feet to get ready for manufacturing their Dexedrine tablets-- they were approved to sell them last spring, and since this past winter, at least, they said they wouldn't have them out until this upcoming fall. = /
Are Adderall Immediate Release tablets still a problem to get? They're still listed as a shortage by the FDA... This is getting beyond absurd.
