thank-you user for your query.
vyvanse is amphetamine group of drug, it might cause Nausea, vomiting, constipation, stomach/abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dry mouth, headache, nervousness, dizziness, trouble sleeping, sweating, weight loss, irritability, and restlessness. Asthma is more or less unrelated to the drug which your child is having.For asthma you can start giving him a combination of montelukast and cetrizine as this will relieve his symptoms.
If required then you may consult any pulmonologist also.
