Final Thoughts
You may experience some or none of the side effects listed in this article. Unfortunately, there is no way for your healthcare provider to know beforehand if you will have problems with a medicine that you have never tried.
Therefore, be sure to let your healthcare provider know if you develop any problems during treatment. Also, let your healthcare provider know if you develop something that "just does not seem right." While it may not be a side effect of Vyvanse, your healthcare provider will be able to diagnose and treat the problem.
