My 8 yr old with ADHD went on vvaynse already for a few months.
Almost at the same time he has been constantly needing the bathroom.
And he isn't eating that much since the medecine is suppressing his appetite .
Is it possibly a side effect, or I have a feeling the ADHD makes him run to the bathroom every time he had the speedy sensation?
Anyone seeing the same thing?

double check with his dr.
just to make sure it isnt something else.
maybe he needs to check his sugar or something like that.

It is a known and very common side effect of Vyvanse. It suppresses the appetite and speeds up the metabolism.

Wow, what a great link. Tons of really valuable info! Thanks so much for posting that.

I wish they would come up with an ADD med that wasn't related to amphetamines/speed, or any other type of stimulant. I could use help in the brain department, but my body can't handle the side effects. Sad

I have the same experience with vyvanse.

On Ritalin my digestive system was slightly suppressed and I only went once a day. It was awesome. Maybe Ritalin is an option?
