Adderall Manufactured By Teva Not Working (Page 69) (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?
I wanted to know what people think about generic adderall made by Ranbaxy/Sun Pharma (COR 135 for the 20 mg tablet). Is it an inferior product compared to Teva?
Thanks!
Sandoz no longer makes generic adderall, it is made by shire, and doesn't work well at all, anyone have any suggestions.
Ask you pharmacy to special order Sandoz brand generic for you, it's the besty

This is an unsubstantiated conspiracy theory. Without evidence this type of post is called fake news...."just blame the government for everything". It's reductive. Total oversimplification of a subject that way more complex than government bashing.
Re: Smitty (# 1272)
This is totally reductive internet conspiracy theory nonsense blaming "addicts" and the government. This is an example of spreading propaganda without evidence and research. PBMs and Big Pharma overall are a huge lobby and they have more impact on government regulations than deterrence. The supply chain issues due to overseas dependence, wholesaler price fixing and profit maximization that makes pharmacy wholesale cost LESS than PBM reimbursement is a bigger factor than the FDA or DEA. Why would any pharmacy sell a medication for LESS than their cost? Selling products at a loss isn't how to make money. Follow the money. It's always about $. Deterrence is propaganda. Blaming "addicts" is just ignorance. It's about $.

"While drugs may have different brand names, the generic name describes the active ingredient of the drug and this is a way to identify the type of drug."
"A generic drug is a medication created to be the same as an already marketed brand-name drug in dosage form, safety, strength, route of administration, quality, performance characteristics, and intended use."
She said name. Not drug.
Heart palpitations with Adderall: If you are getting hypertension or irregular rhythms perhaps you should halt the d-amphetamine salts combo 20 Mg.
I have never had a problem with Teva/Barr's Adderall IR. all of the other generic products, especially core Pharma, seem profoundly weak in comparison
THAT WAS TWELVE YEARS AGO..... Do you think you might have built some resistance to the drug by now? I TOO have taken them over 12 years. The tolerance is noticeable. Even after 1 year the tolerance builds up. The long acting 30 Mg. capsules have a time release mode in them. When you overlap the 12 h formulation with another you will get a larger build up. So do not think one is really that much better than another. It simply doesn't work that way. If you take 4 h tablets every 3 hours you might feel more energy for awhile. Eventually, the tolerance will again be an issue with ANY drug after years of use. Even doubling the dose will ONLY work for awhile to reduce that darned reduction of effectiveness.
Re: WTFFDA (# 757)
As someone who has been on Adderall for over 10 years and taken various generics, there is no difference between generics. No, there is no conspiracy by the FDA. The reality is that Amphetamines are highly addictive, and the majority of users end up chasing the euphoria, rather than enjoying the functional benefits of treating their ADHD. I honestly feel bad for pharmacists and employees at the FDA that have to deal with drug seekers.
Re: Kelly (# 725)
Kelly, you're looking to feel high and that's not what Adderall is for. Please look in to entering a rehabilitation facility and seek help for your anger and anxiety.
Teva company makes they best rated generic Adderall on the market...period. This is a 100% known fact so I'm just passing along the info. It's possible if u bought them illegally they are counterfeits from Mexico or Russia. If not then your tolerance is starting to soar or u actually have ADHD & it won't speed u up.
I haven't taken any stimulants in 5 years but just got put back on Adderall 20mg Teva brand. 1 pill and almost 24 hours later I'm still clinching my jaw. Look it may have been some time but I'm no lightweight when it comes to stimulants. Sadly I abused drugs in my early years and I've literally done every stimulant known. Never a daily thing, I was more of an opiate guy, but I definitely been up all night dozens of times in almost 2 decades since drug use began. So I'm not jumping on u saying it's certainly this or that but I gave some strong options on why u may have felt this way.
The Teva brand is far superior to any other generic brand.
Re: BlessedLady (# 1371)
Typically people with ADHD have the absence of emotions. People with ADHD have at least one defective gene, the DRD2 gene that makes it difficult for neurons to respond to dopamine
Re: 2tired2 (# 699)
You literally described tolerance. Yes, tolerance can can come about any time.
Re: Somebody (# 1279)
LOLOLOL THIS is all a bunch of lies! I’ve been getting teva adderall for over 15 years and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it!
Re: Kelly (# 725)
You're clearly a drug seeker and/or Methamphetamine addict. Yes, there are some generics that aren't as potent as others. But what you're looking for is the euphoria that you experienced when first taking Adderall, and that's not coming back no matter which generic you try. Maybe you need to be switched over to Desoxyn or take a year off to detox and enter rehab.
Re: Ashley (# 719)
If you're withdrawing from Adderall, that means you're addicted and need to stop.
Re: Truth (# 1117)
Patients not receiving the affects they want from a drug. Does not mean the drug is not being made properly. For example, how a drug is metabolized in patients systems can affect how the drug affects them. But that does not mean the drug is not being properly manufactured
I'm NOT from TEVA. AGAIN- your issue is one of time related resistance or TOLERANCE to your medication. Even after weeks the strength weakens and is noticeable. One simply cannot expect the drug to work as well as when you started. I'm not saying that all batches of drugs are spot on identical. They may differ a small small amount. But all and all they are really alike. If you want to expect a distinct high like when you first started then stop completely for a least a year. STILL, you WILL NOT HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS WHEN YOU FIRST STARTED.
