Product placement

Vyvanse: It is a stimulant medication used to treat ADHD. It works by increasing levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. This is a brand name for lisdexamfetamine. It acts as a prodrug, meaning it needs to be converted in the body before it becomes active. This normally gives it a smoother onset and lowers the risk of misuse. Taking it too much can lead to side effects like anxiety, fast heart rate, high blood pressure, chest pain, and hallucinations. It appears on screen as packaging and pills. It is the subject of the video.
