Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.I understand that you are experiencing difficulties due to your ADD medication and would like to stop them. However, you have not mentioned the dose of Vyvanse that you have been prescribed. So, it is not possible for me to suggest a tapering schedule.Moreover, it is not a good idea to stop medication on your own without informing your doctor. So, I would suggest that you let your doctor know about your problems so that he can advise you on the further course of action.Wish you all the best.Regards,Dr. Jonas SundarakumarConsultant Psychiatrist
