I am trying to find a pharmacy in my area that can fill my prescription for Dextroamphetamine 10 mg tabs. All the pharmacies I go to in my area are not able to get it. I live in Kirkland, WA. 98034. Please advise me where I can go to do so. ## I live in lady lake, fl and having the exact same problem. I have been taking Dextroamphetamine 10mg tabs for 1 year. I went to the pharmacy yesturday to have my prescription filled and they said it was on back order. I called around to several other pharmacies and they all said the same thing. Some haven't even been able to get the medication in 4 months. If anyone knows of a pharmacy in my area that has it please reply back. Thanks! ## Wow! If there is someone in Florida that has the same problem as I do in Washington State then it must be n...

Has anyone used the Mallinckrodt. I have never even heard of it, and have taken the other generics with moderate success;. This brand is horrible. Very weak. Anyone experienced the same? ## Hello, Brian! How are you? Yes, several other people have complained about this one, though some have not had any problems with it. It really depends on the person. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, anorexia and insomnia. Can anyone else chime in that's taken this one? ## Generic Adderall made by Barr,Teva, Eon all seem to be great! No issues for over 4 years. Now for the 2nd time in the past 3 months I filled my script at Walmart. Instead of the orange oval pills, my bottle contained white, bitte...

small clear capsule white powder with tiny crystals in the powder and no markings of any kind on the capsule - im a little concerned because it was found by a school ## It's MDMA. ## So true. If it's crystals brown, white, clear, purple, pink, it's MDMA or amphetamine. You can buy a test kit. It could be MDA or methylone which has different toxicity levels and dangers associated with each chemical. ## MOST LIKELY THIS IS METHAMPHETAMINE - LOTS OF PEOPLE USE GELL CAPS TO SWALLOW IT. ## Take a black light to the crystals. If they glow purple then it is for sure a MDMA, which glows under black light. Use a bulb from hardware store. ## It may be opioids too, mixed with quanine and bonita.. the cut makes it crystally ## It probably has MSM in it for joints. You can buy it at gnc....

So I am on my 6th day of Adderal that was prescribed by my doctor since he felt that my symptoms I told him about we're due to ADHD. My doctor warned me that this can be a addictive drug and that it is much abused by people because of the high it can produce. So I started doing research and watching video's of people who have used it and I was starting to question taking it. Now that I have started taking it and have experienced what it's like to be on it I really don't understand how people get off on this. I am currently taking the 20mg RX. My first day on it I would say that I could slightly feel that I had taken something but hardly worth mentioning since allergy medication messes me up way more after the first day even that feeling has subsided. I noticed that with ...

My six year old is taking concerta. When we went for his follow up at the Dr they said it wasn't showing up in his system when he takes it everyday. What could cause this? ## Hello, Kailey! How are you? Do you know what type of test they're using? If it's just a standard 5 panel, then Concerta can't be detected with it. They have to be using a certain specific test, or expensive more in-depth ones to detect it, because it's not actually an amphetamine, though it shares some characteristics with them. Some general practitioners aren't aware of this. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and weight loss. ## Hello, I had the same thing happen. I am an adult...

For several years I've taken TEVA 30mg Amphetamine Salts 2x daily with consistent positive relief. Focus and a feeling that I could have a productive day gave me a reason to get out of bed. On 8/21/2014 all that changed to nervous anxiety filled days staying home. What caused the dramatic change quickly became clear. The generic Adderall produced by AUROBINO PHARM which my regular CVS Pharmacy filled my RX with on 8/21 was less than effective it was exasperating the very symptoms for which it was prescribed. FDA is an ineffective bureaucracy controlled by lobbyists for foreign and domestic pharmaceutical companies making huge profits in generic drugs at the expense of the health and quality of life of others. The manufacturing of inferior or possibly harmful medications by greedy co...

Hi All, I have been having the hardest time finding a pharmacy in Southwest Florida that carries Adderall and its generic. I am currently taking 15mg 3x a day (45mg). My doctor just put in a script for a 3 month supply, to be filling monthly. Walgreens calls me and says they have a new policy stating that because my doctor is over 50 miles away (Tampa area) they can't fill it and the max dosage is 40mg. I'm BAFFLED. First of all, people take up to 60mg a day of Adderall... and now I am on a goose hunt trying to find a pharmacy that is in stock or will even tell me over the phone. I just tried a WinnDixie and am hoping for the best.... Is anyone else in the Southwest Florida area having similar problems? ## Because of the shortage a lot of pharmacies in New England aren’t f...

Does anyone have personal experience taking Ritalin LA 20mg? If so, how well has it worked for you? ## My daughter is on this med and I would like to more about this please... Thanks. ## Shonna, Please see the full listing for: Ritalin. If you require any other details please let us know. Thank You ## Seems that most of the generic Ritalin manufacturers are back ordered. All the pharmacies I have called are out. Is there another medication I can request from my doctor. I take 20mg 3X daily ## Does it come in a tourquise and white capsule? I am wondering what mg this is? ## Hi peeps, I was put on Ritalin LA which is supposed to last for 8 hours. It doesn't feel like it to me as I can't focus about 4 hours after taking it. If anyone is taking it, how long does it last for you?

Just wondered if anyone else has gotten a prescription filled with a round peach pill imprint U 31 on one side, and quarter score on the other ## Yes I got that generic yesterday ## @peter, Just to confirm, a round orange/peach colored pill marked with U 31 is in fact identified as a 30mg generic Amphetamine + Dextroamphetamine tablet. The manufacturer is listed as Aurolife Pharmaceuticals, based in New Jersey. I haven't tried them personally, but did come across a few posts on here stating that they weren't nearly as good as some of the other versions on the market. However, if you're not used to using other brands/generics, I'm not sure if you'd even notice any significant differences at all. I hope this info helps! ## They're horrible. I typically don't no...

I think Aurobindo adderall is counterfeit.. I've Been on adderall for over 7 years and never ever had this brand and I must say IT DOES NOT WORK..... Its total crap. I have went to my pharmacist and talked to him about this this and he told me to contact the FDA. I sent them an email and called. Please do the same. People need there medicine and this is unfair. Since taking this medicine I have had stomach problem and I dont know what I'm taking. People who have taken adderall from different manufactures know this medication is a fake. Here is the food and drug administration information. fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/OfficeofMedicalProductsandTobacco/CDER/ContactCDER/default.htm ## Hello, Amy! How are you?

I got the orange pill with E404. It's from Eon Labs (Sandoz) 30mg. I don't feel the effect as I would on the CorePharma. ## This pill is indeed Amphetamine Salts 30 mg (NDC 0185-0864). One of the possible reasons why you may not be getting the same amount of relief with Sandoz (EON) as you might with Corepharma, is often due to the fact that each manufacturing company uses a different set of binders/fillers (inactive ingredients). This is basically the extra fluff that holds the tablet together. Some companies use more of it than others, and some even go so far as using cheaper genetically modified substances that our body's can't metabolize (yet it's what's covering up the actual active substance, blocking it being released in it's normal therapeutic quanti...

Small white capsule from Brazil with a white powder in it and no markings. It's one of three pills from Brazil that are used as diet pills and/or pills for ADHD. ## U know the pills you speak of.

I have recently started 25mg of Strattera. I feel strange about an hour or so after ingesting. It makes me feel weird, sorta like I'm impaired. A little disengaged. A little paranoid. Is this a known side effect? ## According to Medline Plus, there are a few side effects listed that may fit what you have reported: - excessive tiredness - dizziness - mood swings I'd let your doctor know if these persist. Also, be sure to tell them right away if you experience faintness or shortness of breath. Regardless, it would be a good idea to review the full list of side effects. Hope this helps and best wishes with your treatment plan!

I'm looking for a private doctor to get back on my meds, adderall xr, klonopin, and subutex. Since this is a weird combo most doctors don't want to prescribe mymeds any more. My doc retired and the other moved. For like 4 years I have been looking for a doctor with no luck. If anyone has a good doctor that will prescribe my meds for me again please let me know I can't keep borrowing them from my mom or friend. I am a 28 year old female with three children . I need my meds!! ## Hello, Jess! How are you doing? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. Due to the new regulations that were set forth by the DEA last year, you'll need to see specialists to have such medications prescribed, now. And if you were taking the Subutex for addiction treatment, it's ...

I feel confident that the long-term use of the Adderall causes dysfunction in the hypothalamus… Pituitary axis. This can result in the kaleidoscope of medical problems including adrenal insufficiency, Parkinson’s disease and Addison’s.

Certain types of 30 mg adderall (mainly the big, pink & as of recent orange round ones cut with a cross imprint), tend to not work as well 4 me as the 1's I always used to get orange oval-shaped 1's that read 30 & split in the middle; & kinda tasted like candy). This time I was filled em & the Pharm. Tech said the Manuf. is TEVA. Haven't pk.'d em up yet..wondering which they were. Been searching 4 an image online but so far no luck. ## I don't have an image to post for you, due to copyright reasons. However, I can provide you the markings and description of the 30mg mixed amphetamine salts tablet that is manufactured by Teva. It is oval, an orangish peach color and has b over 974 on one side, with a 30 on the other. Is there anything else I can help w...

For convenience I had my script for 30 mg Adderall filled @ target instead CVS. When I opened the bottle I immediately noticed it was physically different but was not concerned because Drug stores switch generics for several reasons such as cost and availability. After taking my first dose I noticed after 2-3 hrs. that I was not getting any noticeable or same response that I was accustomed to for my ADHD (combined) and depression! So I took a closer look at the pill and noticed it looked smaller and it had a #28 on it. This and the fact I was not getting the usual response (been taking for 20 yrs.) disturbed me enough to call Target to double check w/them to make sure that it might have been a mistake. Target said that they had switched recently but assured me it was the identical medic...

Can taking methamphetamine cause a sudden acute attack of painful sciatica and degenerative disc disease? I was fine when I went to bed but woke up with it and could not walk and was crippled with unbearable pain that's continued for a month and is still going on. Dr. prescribed neurontin which doesn't help at all. Help with medication suggestions please! ## I'm very sorry to hear about your debilitating side effects. From what I've been reading online, many of the symptoms associated with Methamphetamine use are often considered to be sudden and in some cases severe. This drug literally destroys from the inside out (lowering your body's immunity/resistance to illness in general); so I wouldn't say it's not possible to become crippled on methamphetamine, even...

I have been waiting for my D-Amphetamine 20mg to be filled for two weeks now and finally today an hour ago I got a call from Walgreens saying my Rx was ready for pickup!

Can taking these meds at different times of the day cause increased aggressive behavior? ## I'm doubtful that the time of day they are taken has much to do with it, since aggression, irritability, nervousness, and anxiety can be normal side effects of these medications. Concerta and Guanfacine information. If the issue is severe enough to be causing problems, then they patient's doctor should be consulted, as they may need to try different doses, or different medications entirely. Is there anything I can help with?
