The rules for Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine)

As a Schedule II psychotropic, lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse) falls under the same generic regime in the US INCB submission: valid prescription, original container, and the combined 50-dosage-unit cap on controlled substances obtained abroad for personal medical use.

What to do

  1. valid prescription
  2. presentation of original prescription at customs
  3. medication in its original container as originally dispensed

Confirm this yourself: This is based on official guidance we could not confirm against a current national source. Check with U.S. Department of Justice - Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) or United States of America's embassy before you travel.
