Adderall Backorder (Page 19) (Top voted first)

I take generic Adderall 20 mg for narcolepsy and there is not one local pharmacy that has it in stock. I have never had this problem before. The pharmacies are saying that it's on backorder from the manufacturer. Is anyone else having problems getting their scripts filled?

Yes and it is ridiculous, it's another example of our government sticking its fu**omg nose where it should not be.

Walgreen is now dispensing from camber manufactures, which is not even close to Teva but I quest better then nothing at all. Teva Laboratory in California shut down production because of a FDA violation.

But, wait until you try…others.

Although it is hit and miss, Teva is the best.

No way. Teva is BAD now. I’ve tried every manufacturer over 20 years except Camber. Never before has any Adderall pill straight up done nothing. It’s one thing to feel extra cranky or whatever, but this is a whole bunch of nothing. Nothing else has changed, I don’t drink anything acidic with it, etc

The FDA website for Drug Shortages is below. According to them there is a shortage of Adderall.

This really frustrating. I thought it was just my typically awful Walgreens dropping the ball, but then I found out there’s a legitimate shortage of adderall. I finally was able to have an adult conversation about it with a pharmacist. Every other pharmacist said they weren’t “legally” allowed to discuss a controlled substance. Anyway, I was told the his mom and pop pharmacy didn’t expect to see 30mg IR Adderall for 4-6 weeks. He said the less popular dosages would be available sooner, but he had zero currently in stock. I had my doctor send my prescription to three different pharmacies and the first one that fills it is where I’ll purchase it from. Publix says they are expecting to receive it in tomorrow’s delivery. Fingers crossed

Yes, I take generic Adderall for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as it’s the only thing that has helped. I was able to get my extended release filled, but not my instant release. I prefer the instant because my illness is unpredictable and I may need more or less depending on the severity of my fatigue. With the extended I can only take one in the morning and if I need more later in the day I’m screwed because if I took an extended later, then I’d be up all night. I even got my doctor involved and they couldn’t even find one place that has them in FL. I’m in FL, but from GA. I asked if the same issue is happening in GA and they said yes. Not sure what to do now, as this has negatively impacted my life at the time I need it the most since I’m moving and needing energy to move.

This is horrible to say the least. You have a great idea with trying the 'mom and pop shops.' That's what I do and have no problems. Good luck.

Re: JP (# 926)

My Walgreens says the shortage is with 20 and 30mg. Had doc transfer script for 10mg. Out of stock, but said they had 30mg. Had doc change to 30mg. Now pharmacist is "reviewing". I can't even get through to pharmacy sta phone. I have to go to the store. Yes, south Florida.

Ah damn it, I was afraid of this. Knew it was inevitable, though. Thank you for warning me. I'm gonna have to figure something out, because this med has improved my life so much. I'm sure I can get prescribed by a doctor face to face, I just dread going into doctor's offices. More anxiety-inducing than a zoom call for sure.

Re: outofadderall20mg (# 960)

A new doctor will want to test you for ADHD. There are no guarantees testing will show ADHD. Even if a previous test by another doctor did. Some doctors start new patients out on non stimulants for ADHD. So don't wait until you are running low to find a face to face doctor because it might take a few months or longer before you are prescribed Adderall. If you have seen a doctor face to face at least once. The doctor can see you using telemedicine and prescribe Adderall or another Schedule II medication. Also some doctors are not accepting new patients. Good Luck

Re: bp01 (# 970)

The FDA is not going to do anything because patients say a medication they take is in short supply or does not work as well as it use to. But they will pay attention when doctors and pharmacists say it. Provided there are enough complaints from doctors and/or pharmacist.
