What Causes Headaches After Starting Vyvanse?
my six year, started taking Vyvanse 20 mg yesterday , she expericened yesterday a headache that lasted all day, stomach was hurting, and blurred vision. Today she still has a headache, stomach hurts, and some itching. is this medicine to strong for her? is she having an allergic reaction? I called the dr. office but the dr. is out until tomorrow. I don t think i should give her any medicine tomorrow becasue of the side effects.

Thank for you query at health care magic.
fro history it seems your child is suffering some side effect of this drug. your doctor has prescribed right dose of this drug but some child still may have side effect. i advice you to take half the dose of this till one week and if side effects subsided increase a dose again.
Hope this information will help.
