[|Human|] Should a child be given Vyvanse without being properly diagnosed by a mental health physician and psychiatrist? I have two grandchildren ages 7 and 9 who have been taking medicine for ADHD since their first day of school. Currently taking 60 mg - 9 year old and 70 mg - 7 year old. The 7 year old has episodes that have last up to 2 or more hours were she cries and screams and does not communicate or appear to be able to focus or listen to what is being said to her.
[|AI|]  Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. Your doctor will need to check your progress on a regular basis. Your blood pressure and heart rate will need to be checked often. Taking this medicine late in the day can cause sleep problems. Stop using Vyvanse and call your doctor at once if they have:-chest pain, shortness of breath, fast or uneven heart rate;-confusion, paranoia, unusual thoughts or behavior, hallucinations;-unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness;-numbness, pain, cold feeling, unexplained wounds, or skin color changes (pale, red, or blue appearance) in fingers or toes. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing your family good health.
