Suggest Treatment For Adult AHAD

I have been on Vyvanse for about 1 month now because I have been diagnosed with adult adhd...It has helped me a lot in my job. When I started taking this medication I was 205 and now as of yesterday I'm 186. I have lost my appetite I do have a healthy breakfast in the mornings before taking it but then after that I do not eat just about a good 8 bottles of water I have to force my self to eat at least a fruit or a healthy snack bar but never get to half of it... would I be loosing more weight if I continue on this medication?

Hi dear.

I had gone through your query.

Vyavanse can reduce apatite and also reduce weight also.

But change is only transient.

You can gain weight after reduction in medicine.

I appriciate that you take proper food.

Eat high calories and monitoring weight regularly.

Consult psychiatrist and get help.

Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.

Happy to help you. Thank you.
