Indications & Clinical Uses

VYVANSE 50mg is a central nervous system stimulant used to manage specific neurological and psychiatric conditions. It is prescribed for the following indications:

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Increases attention and decreases impulsiveness and hyperactivity in patients with ADHD.
  • Binge Eating Disorder (BED): May help to reduce the number of binge eating days in patients with moderate to severe BED.

How It Works

  • VYVANSE 50mg contains lisdexamfetamine dimesilate, a prodrug that is converted in the blood to dexamphetamine. Dexamphetamine increases the release of norepinephrine and dopamine in the brain, which enhances focus and reduces impulsiveness and hyperactivity in patients with ADHD. For BED, it helps to control binge eating episodes by modulating these neurotransmitters.
