General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Vyvanse belongs to the group of medications known as central nervous system stimulants is used in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD and sometimes narcolepsy. But like other medications this medication has some side effects of its own. It may make someone's skin to be more sensitive to sunlight than it is normally. If this side effect persists for long or bother you then you should consult your doctor immediately for medical help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Zubayer Alam, General And Family Physician
