Mydayis and Fatigue: What Users Say

For ADHD "I do not like this medicine at all. I feel awful! I screwed up on my test and studying because of it. It is not for me. I was on Vyvanse, but the only issue that I had with Vyvanse was that it only lasted 4 hours! I miss Vyvanse so much. It made me feel so good and more confident, and my focus was on a thousand, and it helped with some anxiety! My doctor and I wanted to give Mydayis a try because it lasts longer. It does last longer, but I feel depressed, lazy, less focused, and just drugged, and that's it. I'm calling my doctor tomorrow to let him know I can't stand this drug at all! I want Vyvanse back right away. I really do hope that they can accommodate me. I will give this Mydayis to the pharmacy so that my health insurance will know that I'm not trying to keep it. It's been only a week since I have been on it. I'm not a fan at all. I want off. It's messing me up."

For ADHD "Taking 25 mg takes 2 hours to kick in. Also take with Pristiq 100 mg. I feel tired at midday. So it does work, but no real motivation like Adderall gives you. I will increase to 37.5 mg and stick with it for a few months. Adderall XR seems to be up and down but is more potent. No big crash, but fatigue on this med is a problem."

For ADHD "Mydayis was a game changer for me. Adderall XR and Vyvanse seemed to only last about 6 hours, unlike Mydayis, which lasts about 14. However, it takes a really long time to kick in, and sometimes I have even fallen back to sleep. I have ADHD and lupus, so I am constantly fatigued, but Mydayis helps me have the energy to get out of bed. For me, I find 20 mg of Adderall and Mydayis in the morning works best. I feel the effects of the Adderall within 30 minutes, but by the time it wears off, Mydayis has taken effect. I also feel it's more of an even amount of focus and concentration, and I never have that midday drag where I need to take an IR dose. I don’t like taking a dose midday because my body can be weird with all types of ADHD meds. Some days it's like I take a placebo, while other days I am sweating and feel wired, which is easily solved with cardio! Mydayis works the best, it's just the $$$$ super expensive. I hope they create a generic. I think this is best for adults as well!"

For ADHD "Started 25 mg Mydayis about three weeks ago. Was on 30 mg Vyvanse. Vyvanse was good, but it took two hours to kick in and wore off about 5-6 hours after it kicked in for me. (I am likely a fast metabolizer.) I am now feeling lazy, a little depressed, and I am eating more food. I cannot tell when it hits or wears off. Doesn’t feel like it’s doing much. Maybe my dose was too low? Not sure if I will try a higher dose or change back to Vyvanse. Wish I knew how to compare dosages between Vyvanse and Mydayis."

For ADHD "I switched from Adderall XR 20 mg (3 years) to Mydayis 25 mg (1 month) but felt no positive or negative effects (like taking nothing), so upped the dose to 37.5 mg (~2 weeks). I’ve personally never had worse side effects from any drug. Most bothersome were strong headaches with sensitivity to light, dizziness, unusual motion sickness/nausea, achy muscles, restlessness, racing heart/palpitations, fatigue, and irritability... plus other common Adderall-ish side effects. But, yeah, takes a few hours to take effect and not covered by insurance ($100+/30-day supply), so will not continue. Hope this helps. Best of luck to you."

For ADHD "I just started taking Mydayis. I, as well, am having problems with it (as I did with Adderall) taking too long to kick in. 4-5 hours. Felt totally scatterbrained until the med would kick in. Decided to take it at bedtime. WOW! I was able to get up right away and get my day going, getting to work and able to focus better. The thing with Adderall is that it didn't last long enough. So I was switched to Mydayis but think I need to take it at bedtime as well. With it supposed to be longer acting (14-16 hours), I'm hoping I can sleep good, get up in the AM, focus and get going without the fatigue and not able to focus AND have it last all day at work. Worth a try."
