Lisdexamfetamine comes in 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70mg capsules.
Lisdexamfetamine is most commonly used for attention deficit problems with hyperactivity. It may be given for other reasons as well. Talk with your doctor. No matter what your doctor has you taking it for, lisdexamfetamine is usually taken by mouth with or without food. Swallow the capsule whole; it should not be chewed, broken, or crushed. If you cannot swallow the capsule whole, you may break it open and mix the contents well with water, orange juice, or yogurt.
