Adderall Backorder (Page 99) (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?

Please understand everyone that "unfair" is irrelevant to all of these issues. Saying that something we have no contract, entitlement or Constitutional right protecting, is basically heard by the FDA as whiney entitlement. Unfair? Nobody owes us or guaranteed us an uninterrupted supply of amphetamines, and definitely not in the special texture and formula we prefer. Wake up! "Fairness" isn't a powerful argument to advocate for more equitable distribution and greater quality control. "It's so fraudulent" or "it's so medically negligent." Etc.

In some states that is true. Like Florida. That's why all my posts say speak to a pharmacist in person.

Bottom line is that until this mess clears, which it will, people are gonna have to work to get their Rx. I put in the work and I haven't missed a script. My doctor is on board so that is a huge plus. Docs may need to be flexible because if a pharmacy can fill 30mg tabs ONLY vs your usual 20s, then docs need to resend a new script etc. Does it suck? Yes. But what's better? Complaining or getting the medication? People don't have power and plumbing and a/c or heat during summer hurricanes and winter storms. S*** happens like drug shortages and financial crises and hurricanes and wildfires and floods. I don't mean to lecture because I agree - it sucks. But sometimes a long stretch of good luck is mis interpreted as entitlement. No. Nothing is guaranteed. Medicine. Running water. Cheap gas ($5+ per Gallon in Europe for 20 yrs folks!). THIS is the reality -- the new normal -- right now with Adderall. Survival of the fittest. Work for it and you will find it. Expecting the past to be the present is a waste of time. Adapt, find clever ways during difficult times. That's what will get anyone what they need. Walgreens and CVS aren't Santa Claus. I really don't mean to sound preachy. It just needs to be said. Y'all have power. Use it. Automatic refills with your favorite brand clearly isn't happening. Figure something out and get what you want. Be a hero 4 yourself. That's called skillful action.

yes, every person on earth is having a problem with getting their medications because teva and the binden leadership has chosen to not make more drugs. They ran out of money - they cannot pay for new pills. Welcome to your america

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.

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.
