[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A psychiatrist would be better but might not be possible given the shortage. Our pediatrician is handling DD's Vyvanse prescription right now and we're also paying cash because our insurance only covers the never-available mythical generic version. OP, how long has your DC been on the 10 mg dose? My DD is the same - ADHD, dyscalculia, dysgraphia. She was 2 grade levels behind in the 2nd grade when diagnosed. She's now in 7th and just about on grade level. This takes a lot of time, and upping the Vyvanse may or may not be a good next step. Another possibility to consider is a booster dose in the afternoon. Best of luck![/quote] She’s been on medication for about 3 months. Any other advice on how you have her at grade level for 7th?! I’m not sure I can Will her through school! We have a weekly math tutor but I’m not sure it does much, she seems to forget things quickly. Thanks![/quote]
