Adderall Manufactured By Teva Not Working (Page 67) (Top voted first)
UpdatedI have had two refills of Adderall 20 mg that was manufactured by Teva/barr (Teva) and it seems to have much less medication in each pill. Refills by another manufacturer work. This is ridiculous, and where do we report Teva and who can check each pill for amount for medication? I would gladly donate some of my worthless ones to the FDA?
This webpage just blew my mind given all the problems people are having:
[1] Placebo Pills – Adderall (10mm Orange)
Re: Dee (# 1333)
Nobody’s prescribing ketamine or cannabis for ADHD. Are you on the wrong thread?
Re: Optimistic (# 1344)
The manufacturer generic is worth any other manufacturer makes poorer quality products and their generics are worthless. Teva makes a wonderful generic.
Re: Cheri (# 1351)
Interested to know your take on Aurobindo. I won't prejudice you with my experience, but of all generics, AURO stood out for me but I will wait on revealing its effect.

Incorrect. Shire was the original mfg.
Re: MsRico (# 1361)
Agree and today is 6-6-23 and just got new month’s RX filled. I specifically asked for teva and got it and was so thankful… until I took it. I vary between 20mg pills and 30mg pills but my max daily Amt is 60mg. I have been having to add a OTC caffeine pill called vivarin for 5 years now.
My biggest complaint is that no matter what I do- I’ve been on adderall at least 30 yrs, the past 10-15 yrs I can’t feel the same motivation or interest to do things that adderall ORIGINALLY HELPED With. I have tried all the anti dep and not going back. I had 1-2 days of feeling better from all the varieties of meds. Nothing helps. BY THE WAY- my RX ins aarp/United health has not been covering adderall or my morphine or oxy RX. But afderall cost me $250 last month and one time when I asked for brand - whatever that mean- it cost $1000!!! My Dr wrote medically necessary on this recent RX and I recieved teva… blah, WTH is going on with laxity? Oh yeah?? IT’S THAT EQUITY NONSENSE - that means hiring ppl based on skin color and not education in the field they are working in. Don’t tell me no one knows what I’m talking about…. Thx for feedback Re meds/loss of effectiveness/cost/insurance not covering and recommendations. Lastly for anyone thinking about taking more will get you the feeling you want….. back in 2008 my sister had 2 DR’s giving her adderall (before it was illegal) she died from a seizure. Just sharing.
Teva is much better (in my opinion) to that of Corepharma
FYI, generic drugs MUST have the same amount of the active ingredient that was in the brand name drug. Most people think the +/- 20% deviation (or thereabouts, % differs depending where you are reading) everyone hears about refers to the active ingredient(s) in a drug. However, this deviation refers to bioavailability, and all generics have to prove their generic drug is +/-20%, or whatever %, of the brand name drug to be approved by the FDA. Fillers and other inactive ingredients can vary from the brand name drug, but that's it.
Do NOT TRY CORPHARM brand. I got 30 mg ir from that manufacturer. They made me drowsy, irritable and depressed. I asked my pharmacy to order in sandoz brand but he claims it's whatever they have for the month in stock is what they can order. I dont really understand that. But please don't waist your time and prescription on that brand.
Every state has a State Medical Board. Most of them are likely located in that state's capital city.
First, file a written complaint against that doc that you got into with. Summarize the event & persuade them that this warrants further action. Tell the truth, though! You don't want to be embarrassed later if your complaint does get attention.
Most states will only accept WRITTEN complaints. Emails, submitting online...all of these methods will get your complaint put at the bottom of the stack of the ones the Board will actually read & open a file.
Envelope, stamp and mail it.
Do not hold your breath while waiting for a reply...you won't make it.
Uncertainty: Do not drink "energy drinks" such as Monster and other brands. Those will give you a heart attack if you combine it with Adderall. Even if your meds aren't working, you need to be careful with what you put in your body. Please take care.
Re: Ashley (# 727)
I have the same. Name brand even at lowest does, was to much but far better than putting me to sleep or having unpredictable results.
Some of the comments here are quite frightening and very obviously from seekers. No, not all generics are the same. However if you find that multiple generics have no effect on you, then you've built up a tolerance to the medicine. Adderall is not meant for long term use, and Psychiatrists/Physicians that prescribe it to you for years are just profiting from you without concern for you wellbeing. 100 percent of long term daily Adderall users end up with Adrenal Fatigue, Depression, and often psychosis. Your body only has so much Dopamine it can release, and stimulating your receptors to release more and more Dopamine on a daily basis is a recipe for mental health issues.
I use Adderall myself, but only 3 days a week or sometimes less. I also do not plan on using it for more than a year or two.
Re: DannyDowner (# 816)
Sadly that's exactly what you're doing. Seeking. Hopefully physicians see what your real purpose is and don't prescribe you anymore.
Re: Truth (# 961)
Sorry to alert you all but Aurobindo 30mg Adderall is the best on market today.l
Re: RJ (# 1097)
TEVA is not the enemy !
Re: Christine (# 1112)
I always thought that Barr produced Teva’s generic adderall ir.
Do a search for the FDA orange book, and it indicates Barr is, as of this year, producing D-amphetamine salt combo ir

Re: Addy (# 1149)
Please be careful when dealing with the FDA or drug companies. If you raise too much of a stink about them they’ll silence you in any way they can. Be careful I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them
Just started researching as I realized that every time I get Teva I am anxious, stay up till very late but during the day an unfocused and stressed.. so basically worthless.
Alvogen and Northstar work great.
