My insurance company charges me an outrageous co-pay for Vyvanse and asked me to talk to my doctor about Dexedrine Spansule (dextroaphetamine extended-release). Dexedrine Spansule has generic version that is much cheaper, but my doctor has never heard of it nor has my pharmacy.
Right now I take 20mg of Vyvanse in the morning and 5 mg of Dexedrine (dextroaphetamine instant-release) in the afternoon.
Can anyone help advise how to talk to my psychiatrist about the medication and the change in dosage (Dexedrine Spansule only comes in 5, 10, and 15 mg formulations)
