So I recently got prescribed 10 mg of vyvanse for a month. I saw the starting dosage is usually 30 mg so I thought 10 mg for a month was weird. I talked to the pharmiscist and they said to call the doctor after a week or 2 to increase the dose because that is super small. For the record, I'm a 5'4 woman and about 170 lbs (good amount of muscle) and felt nothing at all on 10 mg. I called the doctor after 2 weeks and he did not want to increase it. He said some people only need 10. I just told him that that's what the pharmiscist said and he seemed dumbfounded. He increased it to 20 anyway. What is the usual dosage? I'm at a loss, though. I see people usually work up to 50-70 mg, and if he is going to constantly fight me about saying I need an increase, this is going to exahust me. Idk if I will need that much or not. Just what I saw online. I'm just wondering if you guys think he is being unreasonable or what information you guys have about the medication that could help me. I'm now thinking that I'm going to have to get the pharmiscist to call and explain things to him if he keeps giving me issues. I don't want to deal with it. Thanks, guys
