Diagnosed With Moderate ADHD & Have Been Prescribed Vyvanse For The Same

I was diagnosed with moderate ADHD and have been on prescription Vyvanse for a year and a half. I have noticed my cheeks are saggy and I have huge nasolabial folds. This is not genetic. The women in my family look much younger than their ages. The fact that I have these saggy cheeks is not consistent with my family genetics. having ADHD is inherited it seems. Will changing my prescription fix my skin?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
ADHD is not the reason for saggy cheeks.
Even Vynase also does not cause this.
Overdose of Vynase may cause musculitis and rhabdomyolysis.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
