vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is a potent central nervous system stimulant prescribed to treat adhd. people who take it usually feel more focused, work harder and faster, potentially euphoric, and more confident. effects of vyvanse are very similar to adderall.

both drugs have a very high potential for abuse. although adderall is the iconic speed-in-a-pill, vyvanse has an advantage due to its easily opened shell containing the drug already in a fine, easily snorted powder(intended purpose is to dissolve in water). a burning sensation in the nose may follow, but will more than likely pass within minutes. this is important because adderall can be a real pain cutting up fine enough to snort. people like to snort these drugs because it causes the drug to kick in much faster and harder, but the duration will be shortened. avoid fruit juice and vitamin c when taking because it can cause your body to absorb less of the drug.

there are plenty of reasons for caution when doing this drug but the broadest category to keep in mind is any problem related to the heart (high/low blood pressure, hardened arteries, heart attacks,irregular heartbeat, ect.)

Vyvanse (Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate)is a new ADHD/ADD Medication developed by Shire, the same company that invented Adderall and Daytrana. Basically it is just a new gimic in order for Shire to be able to keep a steady cash flow when their patent on Adderall expires in 09.

It is an d-amphetamine or commonly known as dextroamphetamine except bonded with an additional protien, lysine, creating Lisdextroamphetamine Dimesylate which Shire then shortened and replaced the "ph" with an "f" resulting with lisdexamfetamine, because they believe it would help customers psychologically disassociate its relationship with the illegal drug amphetamine... nice

almost got me shire...

Ok, so brace yourselves.. this new protien not only greatly slows down the release of the dextro into your body, but it cannot be ingested anyway other than just poppin the pill... you can powder it up and drink it, but wont break the time release.

So no snorting, or injecting... or any other dumb ideas you have.. The only way to truly break the time release is to manually hydrolize it, replacing your liver's job of removing the additional protien which isn't that hard to figure out you know your chemistry.

BUT for the rest of you...

its really not all that bad cuz now you don't have the opportunity to fuck up your nose lining, like i did.

AND

it actually gives you a really nice long lasting buzz/mood lift that is indistinguishable from adderall, but even cleaner if you are lookin...

Vyvanse is an amphetamine pill that seems to take the game to a whole 'nother level. Unlike other amphetamine pills like adderall that have distinct ups and downs, and relatively quick effects, Vyvanse is like a big slow moving amphetamine truck that hits you all day long. It constantly hits you with the maximum dose that an equivalant dose of adderall would only reach occassionally, due to the complex structure of the amphetamine in this pill, which your body can only process so fast.
In some ways, the effects of this pill for those who have trouble with amphetamines are worse. The consistency has a tendency to make you feel a little out of touch, it can become hard to recognize after a few hours that what you're feeling is not normal. However, it definetly still has an advantage over adderall when it's perscribed, since it cannot be snorted, making over the top abuse a little more restricted.
Personally, I would rather have a bottle of 30 70mg vyvanse than a bottle of 30 30mg adderall. However, they truly are best used only once daily, with occassional break periods such as the weekend to regain your composure. Amphetamine abuse is very risky and damaging, whether a user wishes to admit it or not, and you should only take Vyvanse as prescribed by your doctor.
