Summary
Lisdexamfetamine (also known as lisdextroamphetamine, L-lysine-dextroamphetamine, or lisdexamfetamine dimesylate when under the brand names Elvanse, Tyvense, and Vyvanse) is a stimulant substance of the amphetamine class. It is a "mutual prodrug" (codrug) for d-amphetamine (dextroamphetamine) that is approved for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and moderate to severe binge-eating disorder. Like amphetamine, lisdexamfetamine produces its effects by promoting the release of neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain.
Perspectives
“This is certainly one with which to tread carefully. Amphetamine is amazing but it certainly takes back what it gives.”
