Hi JustGottabeme,
Welcome to the NeuroTalk Support Groups. You really need to ask your prescribing doctor about this concern. I just looked in Medline regarding potential side-effects from the Vyvanse and headaches are listed in there. There is also a section in the "Special precautions" part regarding the heart. Side effects http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/d...l#side-effects Special precautions http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/d...ml#precautions Were you on a high dose of the Sertraline before you weaned off and did you wean totally off before starting the Vyvanse. The info. regarding Vyvanse says it should be started at a really low dose and gradually increased. How should this medicine be used http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/d...07047.html#how Many years ago I took quite a high dose of Sertraline/Zoloft for some OC issues and Anxiety. I hated the way it made me feel and it didn't actually help me personally so I went off it. I didn't wean fast enough and I became quite ill in fact. I don't know anything about the Vyvanse I'm sorry except for what I have just read but I'm sure others who read here may. I vaguely recall someone in the ADHD forum was talking about Vyvanse recently. Perhaps asking there might be helpful as well. I do know that for me, getting OFF the Sertraline was difficult and made me sick. Let us know how you get on. |
