There are steps that you or a loved one can take to prevent Vyvanse overdose:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Follow a titration schedule. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Titration is the process of gradually increasing a drug dose until it produces the greatest benefit.. Your healthcare provider will advise you on a dosing schedule. People who use Vyvanse for the first time will receive a low dose, and then the amount is increased in weekly intervals, if needed, until the most effective dose is reached. Following a titration plan under the medical advice of a healthcare provider ensures that the medication is safe and that the lowest dose possible is given.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Avoid certain antidepressants. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vyvanse interacts with antidepressant drugs that increase the level of serotonin in the body. Too much serotonin increases the risk of a serious Vyvanse side effect called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/serotonin-syndrome-symptoms\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">serotonin syndrome<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which can be life-threatening. To prevent this reaction, Vyvanse should not be taken with<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> certain antidepressants classified as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/maois\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAOIs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). If approved by the healthcare provider, Vyvanse may be taken with other antidepressants such as SSRIs, but the patient should be closely monitored for signs of drug interactions. Before taking Vyvanse, let the doctor know about all prescription medications and supplements being taken. <\/span><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Avoid alcohol.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Alcohol is a sedative and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/vyvanse-and-alcohol\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">counteracts<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the stimulant effect of Vyvanse. Therefore, drinking alcohol can make it feel like Vyvanse is not working. This can lead to people taking higher doses of Vyvanse because they don\u2019t feel the effects of the drug. Alcohol should not be mixed with prescription stimulants due to the increased risk of overdose. Alcohol can also impair judgment and potentially lead to misuse or overdose.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Take Vyvanse as directed. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accidentally taking an extra dose of Vyvanse or using it without a prescription can cause harm. Take Vyvanse at the same time each day to avoid double dosing. Make sure to follow the instructions on the medication guide.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Never let someone else take your medication. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2845992\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> among college students found that around 33% of students have shared their prescription drugs with someone else.

For <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/preventing-teen-prescription-misuse\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">teenagers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s not uncommon to misuse Vyvanse while studying for an exam or for the purpose of getting high. It\u2019s essential for parents to recognize the signs and common symptoms of possible Vyvanse misuse to prevent unwanted side effects and serious consequences like overdose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Children and teenagers who misuse ADHD stimulants may exhibit the following behaviors and symptoms:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Behaviors: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Problems in school, isolation, and secrecy, changes in friends, activities, or spending habits<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Physical symptoms: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insomnia, weight loss, loss of appetite, increased heart rate, feeling jittery<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Mental symptoms: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mood swings, anxiety, aggression, paranoia<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parents or caregivers who recognize any of these warning signs should talk with their child about the dangers of drug misuse in an open and honest way. Parents should also closely monitor prescription medicines at home and secure them out of the reach of children. Talk to your children about the importance of taking their medication at the right dose and being responsible with their Vyvanse use.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"vyvanse-addiction-and-rehab-resources\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vyvanse addiction and rehab resources<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many treatment options are available for individuals who develop an addiction to Vyvanse. The goal of addiction treatment is to help people through the detoxification process of slowly stopping Vyvanse and getting through withdrawal. This is accomplished through a combination of behavioral therapy and inpatient or outpatient treatment at a rehabilitation facility. Medications to help ease withdrawal symptoms may also be prescribed.
