How To Idendify Vyvanse?
Question: Yes, I am 70 mg of vyvanse and sometimes i dissolve it in a glass of water. If you dissolve it, is the water suppose to be clear or is it cloudy. And is there a way to tell if the powder is the real medicine. I feel like someone is messing with my medicine. the capsule is real but Im wondering if the powder is real because in the past the water is clear. Or can you suggest a place I can have it tested..Im real concerned. I don't feel like Im getting the real medicine . I know this is a strange question. but i need to know what to do.
Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry about.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
Vyvanse is lisdexamfetamine and is a stimulant for ADHD. You are already on maximum of 70 mg per day which is the upper limit of safe medicines. Capsule is nothing. Its just a gelatin ingredient and tries to prevent the inner ingredient which is powder from compromise from Harsh bowel environment specially stomach acid.
Of course adding powder to the water change the color to a bit cloudy. SO you are overwhelming with unnecessary thoughts.
You can Swallow capsule in whole; may open capsule and then dissolve entire contents in water (drink all of it immediately) Remember immediately.
Take with or without food
Avoid afternoon doses (potential for insomnia)
Nut shell dissolving ingredients in water is fine and changes in water are pharmacology of the medications and nothing strange or to worry about.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
