Vyvanse not working anymore, provider not helpful

I take Vyvanse and consider it one of my miracle meds, it changed my life. so i’d advocate for a higher dose. Like others said there is def room for an increase. Try explaining again (I know it's tedious) and mention the Vyvanse and remind him you get a lot of sleep and that's not the issue. And just ask, it has always worked for me in the past (if it has) and id like to increase Vyvanse before trying another med change. Sometimes you have to flat out ask. it may get you in the direction you want to go. I'm on 70mg for about 6-7 years and I have not developed a tolerance yet which I do for other meds pretty quickly, I'm like a horse. If it is working, try to stick with it unless you want to try something new, then ask that! I know all psychs aren't as open to controlled meds as others but it's definitely worth a try.good luck!

I’ve never had any issues with stimulant tolerance because I only take them 3/7 days a week. I take them on the days I have class or need to focus on more.

Instead of increasing dose change to another med...then go back. If you get generic try brand( there is a huge difference at times). Do you take anything else that could be interfering? Vitamin c? Eating more sugar? Under extreme stress?

The problem with stimulants is tolerance.. you'll become tolerant to your dose, and keep having to bump it up until nothing works anymore unless you get the right doctor. I've found that cycling sometimes helps. With a lot of medications. Pill A stops working, so you switch to pill B you have a low tolerance to instead of upping the doses for minimal effect.

30mg is usually the starting dose, (from what I've been told) and depending on how you react they'll adjust the dose accordingly. But stimulants like Vyvanse, your body will get used to it and it will not have the effect it used to anymore. I'm assuming your body's metabolism (?) can take out the 30mg now making it less effective

They continued to increase mine til I maxed out, Then I weened myself off. I've had to teach myself to focus.

So Ive tried max doses of basically all the stimulants. They used to work for me. They don't anymore. Ive tried quitting them for a while then coming back to them but they still dont work
