Studies in adults with moderate to severe B.E.D.

In two, 12-week studies of adults diagnosed with moderate to severe B.E.D., Vyvanse was proven to reduce weekly binge days (a day with at least 1 binge episode).

At the end of both Study 1 and Study 2, the adults with moderate to severe B.E.D. who took Vyvanse experienced, on average, significantly fewer binge days per week compared to those who took the sugar pill. The change in binge days per week for adult patients with moderate to severe B.E.D from the start of the study to the end was measured using a statistical measure called the LS-Mean.*

*LS-Mean is a statistical method used in the clinical studies to calculate an average score.
