Good luck, deliquesce. I am glad to see you taking the informed consent so seriously. I think a better informed patient leads to better success in treatment in all areas of medicine. I will be curious to hear back after you talk to pdoc and wonder whether he will suggest Vyvanse since it is engineered to reduce the abuse potential. Vyvanse is fairly new and so, at least in the U.S., is not yet available in generics, so it's kind of pricy. I don't know how the patent and generics thing works in Australia. Vyvanse costs me $35/month with insurance. Without insurance, it would cost about $150! In contrast, generic Wellbutrin (Bupropion) costs me $5/month.
