Can Vyvanse And Testosterone Injection Be Taken For 20 Years?
I will be 54 next month. My health seems fine, had blood work done complete & all good. I run a lot, try to sty in shape, last 2 years taking vyvanse - dropped ot to 50 mg per day. Also injecting 200 mg of testosterone per week. Wanted to know if someone at my age can do that for say 20 years?
Using testosterone injection 200 mg for a long period of time can increase your risk of liver problems. These problems include liver cancer and hepatitis.
This drug may also raise your risk of developing blood clots in your lungs or the deep veins of your legs. And the required dose should be 200 mg injection at the interval of 2-3 weeks.
Vyvanse can be taken for a longer period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
