With all the inactive ingredients, and using a scale accurate to .001, what is the total weight of the Emptied powder from One 40mg Vyvanse? (I assume each pill, regardless of lisdexamfetamine amount, would contain the same weight of emptied powder?)

EDIT:
Added Info - To All Those Good Do'ers Trying to Help, Thanks

Imprint: S489 40mg - Turquise/White Capsule

Inactive ingredients: gelatin, titanium dioxide, and one or more of the following: FD&C Red #3, FD&C Yellow #6, FD&C Blue #1, Black Iron Oxide, and Yellow Iron Oxide.

The pills were emptied into a bag in attempt to make dividing the dose up easier... A few too many bowl hits later it was realized that all remaining capsules had been emptied into one container without having checked the weight of one pill's emptied solids.. But I just weighed the entire mound of emptied powder and divided by the # of empty capsules... This is a rough, rough, estimate- but it seems to be about 120mg-180mg per pill.

yeah, right.

that sounds like the best way of going about it seeing as though you've emptied them all in the one bag. just be careful with the dosing.

if you've got a single pill left then weigh it up, otherwise that reasoning above seems sound enough - though 60mg differential could be a substantial difference, ya know?
