Neither name can be promised as the one that lasts longer into the evening for you. On the CADDRA medication chart, approximate duration for Concerta is around 12 hours and for Vyvanse around 13 to 14 hours, with an explicit footnote that figures are individual, that clinicians should use judgement, and that the chart should not be used alone. A one-to-two-hour difference on paper is not the same as a later evening for a given adult. If the change is persistent, distressing, or affecting daily functioning, bring a brief timeline to the prescribing clinician rather than changing the dose independently.
