Just to clarify “metabolism”. Med’s are all metabolized in the liver so we’re not talking about our fuel-burning capabilities.

I find Vyvanse to be a little bumpy, similar to Ritalin, but it still lasts longer than a lot of other’s. Not as long as it should.

A psychiatrist, during drug trial’s told me that sometimes, even with low-level depression(very common), an antidepressant is necessary along with an ADD med for it to be totally effective. Dr. Daniel Amen has a great book on ADD, the best I’ve seen. He gives suggestions for med’s according to the 6 different types of ADD that he’s identified, questionaire’s, true cases, explanations, Spect imaging that backs up each diagnosis and has been doing this for many year’s. His website is – AmenClinics.com. You’ll get more from the book but the website is valuable. I’m insulin resistant and have high BP, so all be careful with Dr. Oz recommendations for supplements for memory, concentration, etc. Or anyone’s advice. Many will raise your blood sugar or BP, such as Gingko and Ginseng. Others can cause your med’s to leave your body too quickly. I always look to Webmd.com to check out warnings for drugs and supplements there as well as reading the reviews.
