Why Does It Hurt To Breath After Taking Vyvanse?

I am 22 year old. i am on 30 mmgs of vyvance and it hurts when I breathe and lay down on the side that my heart is. I have been taking vyvance for a month and take it every day. I have stopped taking it 3 days ago and it still hurts. I am not taking any medications, im not ill and have no other health conditions.

Hello!

Thank you for asking on HCM!

Your symptoms seem to be related to muscular pain, probably inflammation. They do not seem to be related to vyvanse intake.

I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some tests to investigate for the possible cause:

- a resting ECG
- a chest X ray study
- some blood lab tests (complete blood count, PCR, sedimentantion rate, kidney and liver function tests, blood electrolytes).

If all there tests result normal, there is nothing to worry about.

Meanwhile, I would recommend taking ibuprofen three times daily for the pain.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
