Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Undergoing Rehabilitation For The Abuse If Adderall And Was Prescribed Vyvanse For ADHD. Advise.
My daughter (25 years old) is an addict that has been in rehab or abuse of Adderall among other drugs and has been prescribed Vyvanse once a day (AM) for ADHD but she is taken it at 3-4 PM and does not fall asleep until 5-6 AM and keeps me awake. I told her that I am not going to give it to her at that time of the day. I do not know if she has ADHD or not but she may be telling the doctor what the doctor wants to hear in order to get the drug of her choice. I need an advise. Regards, Tito Gomez
