Aurobindo Adderall - I Think Its Counterfeit - Does Not Work (Page 2) (Top voted first)

I think Aurobindo adderall is counterfeit.. I've Been on adderall for over 7 years and never ever had this brand and I must say IT DOES NOT WORK..... Its total crap. I have went to my pharmacist and talked to him about this this and he told me to contact the FDA. I sent them an email and called. Please do the same. People need there medicine and this is unfair. Since taking this medicine I have had stomach problem and I dont know what I'm taking. People who have taken adderall from different manufactures know this medication is a fake. Here is the food and drug administration information.

REPORT

Okay so my first time taking Adderall ever happened to be Aurobindo. It was a great experience (but as i've read most peoples first time is). I thought I hit the jackpot. Something that would make me feel that ambitious and focused everyday.

Well, yeah NO. Too good to be true. On the second day of taking my 20mg IR Aurobindo I didn't feel much of anything except drowsiness. So after 4 hours of a little drowsiness, knowing that it was medically safe, I took another. Nothing.

On the 3rd day I could feel something. Can't really describe what. I was up and down. No real clear cut positive result. Seemed like I took an expired 12mg Sudafed.

4th and 5th (today) day, i'm getting more uncomfortable peripheral nervous system stimulation and the complete opposite of "ambition" and focus". I'm lethargic, foggy, confused, and I keep forgetting things.

For example I went to get a water out of the fridge. I put it on the kitchen counter. I went back into the living room and sat on the couch. Oops I left my water in the kitchen. I NEVER do things like that. That's just ONE example of several such incidents.

There seems to be major issues with the TEVA brand as well, as I was reading another thread on here with 30 pages of people talking about how worthless their Teva Adderall is. Is there ANY manufacturer that makes a quality generic of Adderall?

Geez, first time ever taking Adderall and i'm already contemplating asking my doctor to switch me to Vyvanse or Dexedrine because I can't do this. I won't.

Yes me too. I'm going to keep a few for the record and give the rest back to the pharmacy. I have a long relationship with them going back several years and no issues so I'm thinking that having almost an entire month left will raise a red flag so that they will look into it. I'm also going to see if there is a way to have them tested for correct ingredients in type and amount, I would really like to know what I was putting into my body.

No u27 Aurobindo

Nausea, vomiting, headache, bloating, breast tenderness, swelling of the ankles/feet (fluid retention), or weight change may occur. Vaginal bleeding between periods (spotting) or missed/irregular periods may occur, especially during the first few months of use.

Re: Carolyn P (# 3)

Depending on the area in which you live this info may not apply, but I filled my script for 5 years in the Springfield Ma area at CVS. In 2015 we moved to Sarasota Fl and now Walgreens is the only one carrying it around here.

Every brand effects someone differently. Aurobindo has always worked amazing for me until this month which I received a horrible batch which has given me nothing but horrible foggy side effects.

Re: Penny (# 30)

Penny if you feel as terrible as I do then I feel sorry for you. I managed to finally sleep, but upon waking I felt like a truck ran me over. I still have a bad headache. Like you, I refuse to take one more pill. I called the manufacturer and filed a complaint. The FDA is useless so I was only able to leave a message. I notified my pharmacy and left a message for my provider. I need to find out, if I turn the medicine over to my provider, if I can get a new script. I called a different pharmacy and they have TEVA. This is the worst reaction I've ever had to a medication and I still don't feel completely normal. I will never ever take any medicine by them. They have a shotty history. Shame on the FDA, another useless government agency.

Re: Myrnamouse (# 13)

Have you always taken Teva brand Adderall? I take aurobindo adderal which has always been amazing for me but this month I received a horrible batch with complete cloudy side effects. I have no energy and my heart rate is through the roof. How is your energy levels and Clarity on Teva? When I first started taking Adderall in 2012 I was prescribed Teva from Walgreens. It was amazing for two years and then started to not work at all. CVS started carrying aurobindo which I switched to and it was amazing. I've tried taking Teva a few times these past couple years but never felt the surge of clarity and energy that aurobindo would bring, so I stayed with them. After this last batch of adderal I'm looking at going back to Teva but have been curious how the effects are on people now? Would you say that you have great levels of energy and Clarity on the new Teva that you are describing? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I used to get my aurobindo adderal instant release Filled from CVS for years before they stopped carrying it. It has been an amazing medicine. I take the 30 mg round light orange u31 pill twice daily. After they stopped carrying it I've had to have mom-and-pop pharmacies order it in specifically, which has been a hassle. Last month I received a script that was a perfect for the first time in months. I was full of energy, completely alert, and had all the positive effects that adderal is supposed to bring. This month I had to go to a different Pharmacy because the last pharmacist I went to could no longer get any in stock through his vendor. So I found a different Pharmacy on the other side of town that was able to order it in from a different vendor.

Everything about this batch of aurobindo has been horrible. Instead of the usual rush of euphoric energy I typically feel that boosts me into full clarity and a want to conquer the day, I have been hit with nervous jitters, racing heart beat, complete brain fog, paranoia, and zero energy. Which is followed by complete exhaustion. I typically take halves of the medication throughout the day. I tried only taking quarters but still felt the horrible effects. It's stopped my routine dead in my tracks and I'm now trying to figure out how I'm going to get through the month. I had a similar experience three months prior from the 20 ml pills, which were given to me because of the pharmacy didn't have 30 mg in stock. I miss the days of having a consistent supply of my medicine. I've read about aurobindo having these effects on certain people and not being a good medicine for them but It has always worked amazing for me and i never had a problem. I know every brand affects everyone differently but there is definitely something wrong with their batches.

It makes me question now if I should keep trying to get my script filled with or aurobindo or try going back to Teva which I know has been not nearly as effective for me. What is it in this medication that is creating these negative effects? Do you think it's a filler creating these horrible side effects or just a uneven amount of chemicals that weren't mixed correctly in the batch? It would be amazing to find a manufacturer that can supply a consistent batch of adderall that gives me the focus, clarity, and energy boost that my body has been used to for so long. Also which ingredient is it that focuses on the energy boost and clarity that has made adderall such a great medicine? Any input would be great. I'm going to forward this message to whoever else I must in hopes of answers. Aurobindo has always been the perfect generic Adderall for me and I'm hoping to continue using them in hopes that this was just a bad batch. Which generic brand have you found that has given you the most constant results, as well as best positive effects along which I was referring? Thank you for your input.

Re: Kelly (# 29)

I'm having the same exact negative physical effects and no therapeutic effect at all. I knew it couldn't be just me and I have seen others posting the same. I posted details here in other threads. It's so bad there is no way I can take this and function I will have to do without for the next 3 weeks. I'm prescribed 10 mg, 2x/day.

Re: Carolyn P (# 3)

Wallgreens here is the only chain that carry Teva. That’s all I will buy too. The little M tables are awful as well. They don't feel weak like Aurobindo, just like an inconsistent strength.

Yes!!! I’m not alone in this!

Recently got aurobindo for the first time and holy crap... this stuff absolutely DOES NOT WORK!

Not even a little bit. I’ve been on this med for almost four years now, and other than sun pharm (I got that once — yellow pills), I have NEVER had this issue.

I think it’s fake too so I bought a drug test thing online to see what comes up.

Till then - I’m screwed for the next three weeks.

I just wanted to add that I always suspected Aurobindo made fake Adderall. My doctor writes do not dispense on all my prescriptions so I don’t get their medication.

Part of the reason we’re having an Adderall shortage right now as I believe they discontinued making it, they probably had to because it was so bad, but look at this from the FDA today. They were making bad medication. If you get weird generic meds, please take a minute and fill out an FDA medwatch report online or call. Sometimes they really are bad medications and these companies will keep selling them if nobody stops them.

Always check your RX before leaving the pharmacy. Never accept any drug manufactured by Aurobindo, Accord or Mallinckrodt.
I always call the pharmacy to see who the manufacturer is of the med I have been prescribed. If it is one of those three and they are unwilling/unable to order a different manufacturer, then I just call a different pharmacy.

Re: Mason (# 19)

It's good to see someone getting the positive effects of Aurobindo like I have. Hopefully you will be able to continue getting those effects and your Pharmacy will keep a consistent batch of that brand in for you. Aurobindo has always been the only adderal that has been amazing for me these past 5 years. This month unfortunately I have been hit with a bad batch from aurobindo that has created nothing but negative horrible side effects. It has stopped me dead in my tracks. I'm trying to get to the bottom of it and hope that it was just a bad batch by the company. I'm trying to find out if it's something I can track down and make sure I don't receive the same batch next time I fill my prescription. Where do you receive your script from? I live in Tennessee and it seems every vendor brings in different batches so it's been difficult finding a consistent pharmacy to fill my script from.
