Taking vyvanse / lisdexamfetamine out of France
Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) is a controlled stimulant; personal export from France requires prescription documentation and stays within personal-use limits.
Details
Lisdexamfetamine is a Schedule II-equivalent controlled stimulant under the Code de la santé publique Art. R5132-74; Schengen Convention Art. 75 framework. Personal-use quantities (typically ≤30-90 days' supply) accompanied by the prescription and doctor's letter are generally permitted for export from France; above these limits a Schengen Article 75 certificate is required in advance. Destination-side treatment is the sharper risk — several countries (Japan requires advance permission; some jurisdictions ban amphetamine-class medicines outright) restrict arrival with stimulant ADHD medication, so verify the arrival rule for the same route.
