Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

Can Vyvanse cause skin reactions or make your appearance change in a way that's noticeable, like making you look unrecognizable?

 

Answered by Dr. Aditya Favade

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

1. While Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is generally well-tolerated, it can cause side effects in some individuals. Skin reactions, such as rashes, itching, or redness, may occur, but these are not common.

2. In rare cases, severe allergic reactions could lead to more noticeable changes in the skin. However, Vyvanse is unlikely to cause significant changes in your physical appearance to the point where you would become unrecognizable.

3. If you're experiencing unusual skin changes or have concerns about how Vyvanse is affecting you, it's important to speak with your healthcare provider to assess whether an alternative medication might be more suitable.

 

Thanks
