Hydrolisis Lisdexamfetamine to d-amphetimine - is possible ?

theoretically, hydrolysis in the presence of acid - for example hydrochloric acid - could work. then neutralization with base and evaporation - there should in hard theory(in my head) be only salt, d-amphetamine and l-lysine left - or am I wrong, maybe som toxic unpredictable byproducts ?

disclaimer, never do this, it is probably dangerous, non-functional and especially illegal, we are having fun purely out of fascination with chemistry.

any idea ?
