โš ๏ธSerious risks

Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate has a high potential for abuse and misuse, which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including lisdexamfetamine dimesylate, can result in overdose and death [see Overdosage (10)], and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection.

๐Ÿ“‹Interactions & cautions

Agents that alter urinary pH can impact urinary excretion and alter blood levels of amphetamine. Acidifying agents (e.g., ascorbic acid) decrease blood levels, while alkalinizing agents (e.g., sodium bicarbonate) increase blood levels. Adjust lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules dosage accordingly [see Drug Interactions (7.1)].

๐Ÿ“ฆStorage & missed dose

Store at 20 to 25 C (68 to 77 F). [See USP Controlled Room Temperature.] Protect from light. Dispense in a tight, light-resistant container as defined in the USP using a child-resistant closure. PHARMACIST: Dispense a Medication Guide with each prescription.
