Posted on Mon, 6 Apr 2015
Question: i have suffered from ADD my entire life. I have focused on therapy and excercises to improve rather than medicate. I no longer feel the same about that. I'm looking for a better quality of life and would like to try Vyvanse.

Brief Answer:
Vyanase is good option

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcarremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

I agree with your choice and acknowledge that it is good choice for Adult ADD. Although I also like to consider Strattera as a treatment choice as I find it better in adult patients.

Having said that, you need to visit your doctor to get consultation and prescription.

I hope this answers your concerns.
If you have any more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards
Dr Ashok Kumar
