Adderall Backorder (Page 66)
(Newest replies 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?

I have not had a problem Wallgreens since I switched from CVS. Rite Aid keeps the Arubindo in stock, and I hate those, but at least they have something if you don’t mind that brand. Teva at Wallgreens.

Yes, I had to call 13 CVS’s only to be told that there was some type of glitch in CVS and that I should try another pharmacy. RiteAid and Walgreens had it in stock. What was annoying is that no one took the time to actually do a search to see who had it in stock. It was just, “sorry out of stock, check back in a few days”

Yes - My CVS here suddenly is out of Klonopin, a seizure medicine prescribed for many years. They said 2 weeks back order! This has never happened in 5 years being a customer there. Very strange.

Re: kelly (# 650)

Allow me to respond to your ridiculous rant. Other medicines being available for the same thing is fine, however if a doctor writes a prescription for a specific medication that doesn't mean they can fill it with something else, as doing so would be illegal.

Adderall is sometimes back ordered because it is over-prescribed. There are DEA limits that the drug companies must follow when producing controlled substances. If there is a shortage they must seek DEA approval to override that limit and manufacture additional quantities.

You wrote "maybe their aloud to tell the people they feel don't need it that its on back order". If you're going to be a condescending hypocrite please learn to spell correctly. They are not allowed (not aloud) to tell people it's on back order because they feel as though they don't need it. They are not doctors. They can verify the validity of the prescription with the doctor and that's it.

So please Kelly, if you don't know any of the facts don't waste anyone's time posting your rude rants.

Has anyone had any luck finding Teva/Barr 30mg in Los Angeles? Been out for 2 months now. This is crazy!

Yes I was too. And it caused severe issues with my doctor because I had to go to so many places to find it. They discharged me and said my behavior was inappropriate. It's absolutely ridiculous.

Re: kelly (# 650)

thank you "Steve #645" ref post Feb 28 2018 "That is 110% good knowledge you state for me, I just want to thank you for sharing that data, as I have been around since the 1960's, and yes, you make very good sense, to me. I have been on legal stimulants for over 24 years in a row, and grew up when the "diet pills" were changed from "popular" to "very unpopular" in the 1970's!

From over 12 manufacturer's excluding methamphetamine, PLUS another 12 more manufacturer's in USA that manufactured the above ref 1968 PDR page 242, page 204, page 226 twenty second edition by Medical Economics Inc.

Gone with the wind are those days of outstanding quality IMHO. I just do the best I can now with what is left in the market.

I have had my M.D switch me from "adderall" to another C-II fast acting stim called dextroamphetamine sulfate (I got tired of exactly what you described as a "shell game" and the shortages and inconsistencies", and, now, the bottom line is "profit" and quality control went out the door, and prices also were "all over the place"

I hope this get published to assist those of us frustrated with the legit DX of ADHD and or ADD or Narcolepsy I am in my 60's. (age range).......

Everybody sounds so desperate, they do make other medicines for the same thing. Obviously this desperation must be the reason for all the complaints on backorders. There's no problem where i live at all. Maybe they're aloud to tell the people they feel don't need it that it's on backorder? Well look at it this way you will have time to get thru withdrawals by B.O's.

Re: Viny (# 4)

I am 59 years old and have taken adderall since they started making it and I take 60 milligrams a day. I agree with the lady that says too many young people don't have a clue, diets, exams, whatever reason you seek it your the reason for these problems we are having getting our medicine. Not myself, I have no problem getting my medicine from any pharmacies. Another little secret with all the complaints on withdrawals and all that body functioning BS when you don't have your MEDS, truth of the matter is you cant get hooked on any drug if its something you need to function normally, and if you are without it you should act like adults and just deal with it instead of complaining and wining about it. Like i said you have no clue, what's a few days of down time? lol.
