Elvanse for ADHD
Elvanse (lisdexamfetamine), a prescription drug, is used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, adolescents, and adults. As part of an all-encompassing treatment plan that may also involve therapy, educational support, and lifestyle modifications, it is intended to enhance focus, lessen impulsivity, and control hyperactive behaviour.
Some of the children who have been diagnosed with ADHD also have the symptoms in adulthood. In adults, the symptoms should have started in childhood when treatment is initiated.
Elvanse is a modified form of dexamfetamine that remains inactive until the body breaks it down into its active form. After absorption, it is changed into dexamfetamine, a stimulant that aids in controlling impulse control, focus, and attention.

Lisdexamfetamine will help to reduce the symptoms of hyperactivity and impulse behaviour and increase attention and concentration span. It is used as part of a comprehensive treatment programme that includes behavioural therapy.
With just one morning dosage, Elvanse can provide long-lasting symptom control throughout the day thanks to this gradual conversion.
What is Lisdexamfetamine available as?
- Capsules: 20 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg, 50 mg, 60 mg, 70 mg; contain gelatine.
When should Lisdexamfetamine be given?
Lisdexamfetamine is usually taken once each day. It is recommended to give the medicine in the morning, but it may also be taken in the evening.
Try to give the medicine at the same time each day so that it becomes part of your child’s daily routine, which will make it easier to remember.
How much should be given?
The doctor will decide the amount of medicine (the dose) that is right for your child. The correct dose will be shown on the medicine label.
Treatment usually begins with a low dose, which is gradually increased to find the lowest dose that works effectively. Because lisdexamfetamine can affect pulse and blood pressure, these may need to be checked before any dose adjustments are made.
