[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 117494, member: 1498"] I suspect that at least a good part of the recent change in personality is the result of use of the stimulant. Anger and aggressiveness are side effects. This is in the patient information for Vyvanse. I'm never did understand why so many doctors seem to blow off these adverse reactions even when the literature warns about them. I'm not a big fan of giving a child a second medication to try to overcome the adverse reactions to a first medication. First off, it doesn't work a [I]lot[/I] of the time. Second, it starts the slippery slide down the road until the child is taking way too many medications, a lot of which are prescribed in an attempt to counter adverse reactions to other drugs. But that's me. [/QUOTE]
