Does Smoking Weed React While On Vyvanse Medication?
I m prescribed vyvanse, aparently when they prescribed me I signed a narcotics agreement. When I signed I was not smoking weed. But later when I was randomly tested twice I had been and they did not say anything. It s time to renew my narcotics agreement. When my sister renewed hers she was tested, when they found weed and alcohol they took her off her adderol (the doctor did previously ask my sister to stop drinking.) So my question is, will I get kicked off for weed even though I have been ransomed twice? Is it possible the ransoms were only making sure I was taking the vyvanse and not testing for weed? If I get kicked off can I be allowed an opportunity to get clean off weed and back on my medicine?

Hello Dear,
I can understand your concern and thanx for showing interest in HCM.
If you are on Vyvanse madication,then smoking weed is just completely counteracting that medicine. It's possible it could be harmful as both known to cause increase heart rate. and morever both can cause anxiety too. i would advice it is not a good idea to mix both and if you must, take the weed in conservative amounts But as u signed the narcotic agreement,you have to avoid it.
Rest you should concern your consultant for complete evaluation of your symptoms.
I do hope you found the answer helpful.Best Wishes.
