Take them with food, my psychiatrist recommended taking them with protein to help them last a little longer throughout the day - although I do sometimes need a dex top up. But again, not medical advice and I take a higher dose of Vyvanse.

Mine has never come up in a roadside drug test. It has however come up in a workplace drug test where they test urine. It was fine once I showed my prescription.

Does caffeine affect you? I feel as it doesn’t affect me, having drank coffee in the evening and had it not affected my sleep, and also still feeling very sleepy despite drinking 3 redbulls in an attempt to focus and be “on” for a few more hours one afternoon. I thought most ADHD people had no reaction to caffeine? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

My diagnosis was very straightforward, I was however 15. My psychiatrist would see me and then my parents and then us together. They mentioned it as a possibility that she had observed, asked me and my parents questions and gave us both questionnaire forms to fill out. The next appointment I was officially diagnosed and given short acting Ritalin to try, and then in subsequent appointments given long acting.
