Is Vyvance the best ADHD medication?

For my ADHD, they have me on Vyvance and it has been a few months and it hasn’t been working. Before that they had me on Strattera. Is Vyvance the best medicine that will help?

How long after Vyvance, would you say they put you on Adderall? It’s been almost 3 months and before that Strattera for 4 months.

My doctor says she’s not going to up my dosage of Vyvance because it’ll mess with the Wellbutrin

i don't typically notice any changes when i take my vyvanse because it's supposed to HELP you focus, not make you focus automatically is that your issue or is it something else?

@worms_in_thebrain It doesn’t help anything. There are no changes. No shift in focus from before to after. Even after the months have gone by, there isn’t any hint that it’s working at all. And they won’t up the dosage
