Consumer:

Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.

Professional:

Coadministration with lisdexamfetamine appears to have modest effects on the pharmacokinetics of guanfacine. In a drug interaction study consisting of 40 subjects, administration of an extended-release 4 mg dose of guanfacine in combination with lisdexamfetamine 50 mg resulted in a 19% increase in guanfacine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and 7% increase in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration of guanfacine alone. These changes are not expected to be clinically important. Guanfacine had no effect on d-amphetamine systemic exposure in the study.
