How quickly does Vyvanse work?
How long does it usually take for Vyvanse to work? Vyvanse was shown to start working within 1.5 hours after taking the medication in a clinical trial of children ages 6 to 12 with ADHD. In a study of adults diagnosed with ADHD, the drug was shown to start working within 2 hours.
Why am I still tired after taking Vyvanse?

Does Vyvanse have methamphetamine?
