It is also approved for binge-eating disorder (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/vyvanse-for-binge-eating\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BED<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) in adults but is typically only used as a second-line therapy. Vyvanse is dosed once daily and comes in both capsules and chewable tablets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vyvanse belongs to a class of central nervous system (CNS) stimulants called amphetamines. It improves focus, increases concentration, and reduces impulsivity and hyperactivity. Unlike most other stimulant medications, Vyvanse is a prodrug, which means it has no effect until it\u2019s metabolized by the body into its active form, dextroamphetamine. Vyvanse is a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/controlled-substances-act\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schedule II controlled substance<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which means it has the potential for abuse and dependence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Vyvanse may be an effective FDA-approved treatment for ADHD and BED, it can be quite expensive. Fortunately, there is a cheaper generic version available as well as several other ways to save money on this medication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>RELATED: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/vyvanse-side-effects\/\"><b>Vyvanse side effects and how to avoid them<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-vyvanse-cost\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does Vyvanse cost?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of a Vyvanse prescription varies depending on your insurance coverage, the pharmacy you use, the dosage and quantity you need, and your location. Vyvanse is a brand-name drug and without insurance, the average cash price is around $558 for 30, 30 mg capsules. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/vyvanse-without-insurance\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without insurance<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Vyvanse could cost more than $6,500 per year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have health coverage that includes prescription drug benefits, your out-of-pocket cost may be lower. However, prescription drug plans can vary widely in terms of coverage and costs. Your plan may have other preferred medications that it covers at a lower price.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/what-is-medicare\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medicare<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> coverage also varies depending on your condition (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicare.org\/articles\/does-medicare-cover-vyvanse\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it does not cover<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Vyvanse for BED) and the specific prescription drug plan you have. Brand-name medications are not typically covered by Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage prescription plans.

Your doctor may have to submit a prior authorization request to your Medicaid plan for you to get coverage for Vyvanse. If approved, your prescription is also subject to a quantity limit of 30 capsules per month, or one capsule per day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commercial and private insurance plans may also have <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/quantity-limits\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">quantity limits<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on the number of capsules you can get per month. You&#8217;re responsible for any monthly premium costs, copays, and\/or coinsurance.
