[QUOTE="maril, post: 210185, member: 5937"] Hi, Lisa. Sorry you guys are having a rough time. I hope all goes well with school and medication issues in the future. It is a rollercoaster ride, isn't it? My 17yo son currently takes Vyvanse 30 mg and sertraline (generic Zoloft) 50 mg; both medications taken in the morning around 6:30 a.m. on school days (weekends are another story...he sleeps in). He started Vyvanse right before school started in August and has continued to express that it works well for him. He has been tried on 3 other stimulants over a few years' time, having reactions to the methylphenidate group (cannot tolerate Daytrana or Concerta), and Adderall XR was not exactly the right fit. Anyway, Vyvanse seems to work well for him to this point. I must add that when recently starting the sertraline, we were told by a psychiatric hospital counselor that sertraline might counteract Vyvanse's effect somewhat. My son doesn't mention any problems lately as far as not being able to focus, etc. Otherwise, with the Vyvanse, I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary since August when he started it, except possible rebound later in the day; anger and irritability at other times, too - BUT, he has other issues that may contribute to his overall mood. Good luck to you and your son.:happy: [/QUOTE]
