Suggest Treatment For Adult AHAD
I have been on Vyvanse for about 1 month now because I have been diagnosed with adult adhd...It has helped me a lot in my job. When I started taking this medication I was 205 and now as of yesterday I'm 186. I have lost my appetite I do have a healthy breakfast in the mornings before taking it but then after that I do not eat just about a good 8 bottles of water I have to force my self to eat at least a fruit or a healthy snack bar but never get to half of it... would I be loosing more weight if I continue on this medication?

Hi dear.
I had gone through your query.
Vyavanse can reduce apatite and also reduce weight also.
But change is only transient.
You can gain weight after reduction in medicine.
I appriciate that you take proper food.
Eat high calories and monitoring weight regularly.
Consult psychiatrist and get help.
Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.
Happy to help you. Thank you.
