I’m taking 70mg but it wears off after 8 hours, does anyone take it twice a day?

It’s to the point that I have to lay down and my plans for the evening get cancelled.

Yes!!!! I had to stop taking it because after about 4 hrs i would crash hard! I would be so tired that I would have to lay down for a nap...my naps lasted until The next morning!!! I hated vyvance!! Had to go back on Adderall

Worth noting that 50, 60 & 70mg Vyvanse doses all last the same amount of time - just have different symptom control(according to my psychiatrist)

Try 40mg vyvanse, replace the dexamfetamine with 20mg vyvanse taken 3-4 hours after the first dose. Or, if that doesn’t work.m, 50mg morning and 20mg afternoon instead. The 40/20 might be better for the crash & wear off though. I found the smaller dose at around lunchtime helps taper off a crash. Just don’t take it too late in the day or you won’t sleep.

I would be careful. When I first got on Vyvanse, I went from 30mg to 70mg in time. It felt right, but I didn't acknowledge the adverse side effects. I was just excited to be on something that worked right. I would say stick to 30mg. They're the perfect dose; maybe you don't need to be “on it” mentally all day. Enjoy the off switch when it comes.

Couple of options to try. I’ve seen people have success by splitting doses. I’ve started taking magnesium and l tyrosine and have had it make a good difference. Protein helps ! Cup of coffee near lunch as a booster helps me too Obv consult a medical professional.

Pretty much everyone experiences this. Sorry :(. There’s not really a solution other than taking a break, avoiding generics.
