Expect to See Vyvanse Rxs for Treating Binge Eating Disorder

December 2016

You'll see more Rxs for Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) now that it's approved for binge eating disorder in adults...not just for ADHD.

About 1 in 70 adults have a binge eating disorder. These patients have frequent episodes of compulsive, out-of-control overeating...that often lead to obesity and mood disorders.

Vyvanse may help by boosting the "feel good" hormone, dopamine...which affects eating behaviours.
