Is Taking Vyvanse Safe When Trying To Conceive?

I have endometriosis and I am currently taking Vyvanse 40mg. I am attempting to conceive. Could Vyvanse harm my embryo prior to the placenta formation, i.e. before I am aware of conception, during the two week time between conception and missing my period?

Hi,

You should stop taking the drug as it is a category C drug in pregnancy and it can harm the fetus even before you are aware of becoming pregnant. As you have endometriosis you may need some medical support to become pregnant. Consult a doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khushboo Priya
