Does An Excess Of Vyvanse Cause Any Major Problems?

I am 6 2 , 210 lbs. I am very healthy with no prior or current health problems. I have been studying for an upcoming GMAT exam for the last two days straight. I am prescribed to Vyvanse and have been taking it to study. I did not realize it it but in the last 36 hours I have taken 200mg of Vyvanse. I feel fine, a little jittery, but wanted to see what the doc had to say.

it is a short acting agent. hence you might experience transient jitteriness when you stop as the part of drug withdrawal. it's usually not advisable to take such a huge dose that is more than 100 mg per day with out any pre-work up. hence my recommendation will be better to stop using it and if you get prolonged withdrawal consult the gp for symptomatic treatment. hope it's useful. good luck.
