Best Generic Adderall Brands (Page 22) (Top voted first)

Is the round pink 30 mg Adderall generic name Sandoz/Eon with the markings of CDR 136 on one side more or less effective than the oval orange 30 mg Adderall generic name Barr/Teva with the markings of b974 on one side and 30 on the other side? What is the most effective/potent Adderall that is generic and 30 mg?

REPORT

I did not like the pink ones at ALL. Ive had the best experience with the orange oval tables (well my 30mg is ovsl, not sure what other doses look like)

What happened with the Aruobindo to you that almost killed you. It is all I have to take now and I can't return it.

I know it is made in India and I don't feel the same as with Teva but I also had a prescription of the Teva in December 2015 that didn't seem to work well at all after taking it for years. This wasn't the first batch of Teva 20mg generic Adderall that I had that wasn't the same as the older ones. It isn't me- I am responsible with my dose and don't abuse the amount. I have been able to use this for years without bad side effects. Only this last year I have noticed a difference in the effect. I have had time off of the medication at times to avoid burnout even.

UPDATE: It's now about a week before my refill and I don't know what to do!!!I've been using Corepharma 136 Adderall for years but this month it's been almost like taking nothing! Everything about it is different....Focus is for a very short time, I'm irritable, no energy, and I've gained 5+ lbs. Upon waking in the am it's as if I've taken a sedative, I feel very groggy. And my libido is 0000!! My husband and kids have even commented on the difference in me. PLEASE??!! ANY ADVICE IS WELCOME!!!

Teva for D-Amphetamine Salt Combo XR 30MG Caps, taken in AM
Barr for D-Amphetamine Salt Combo 10MG Tabs taken mid-day

I was originally prescribed Adderall back before generics came out. Ritilin made me nuts and I couldn't tolerate it. We adjusted the Adderall up and down several times and I saved the left over pills. Last year I came across an entire bottle of 20MG XR (or ER) caps I'd forgotten about (stored in the deep freeze in zip bags). They were still effective , 3 years later - the difference between generics and brand name was very noticeable, just as had known all along (& my doctors had agreed). But by comparison to the manufacturers CVS, Osco and other pharmacies use, Teva and Barr are the best for me. Pills made by the other manufacturers have zero effect on me w/regard to managing ADHD. Some of them give me headaches, diarrhea, anxiety/agitation. I've yet to meet a psychiatrist who disagrees with this: they see a whole lot of patients of all ages and walks of life, we can't *all* be wrong--- it's the fillers. I'll bet my house that the manufacturers skim the active ingredient , just as all drug dealers do, to increase profits.

Thanks BostonHolly! I'm sooo struggling! My husband asked me to wash him some underclothes 3x yesterday before I finally got it done! Only then, cause I stopped mid stride and went to the washing machine. Hopefully next script will be better.

They do cut off the top for a profit. All fillers. They do not have to have the full amount of the active ingredient in the generic form. Even vitamins are a waste of money. If a vitamin is not in a vegetarian capsule (that you can pull apart and empty kind) then the fillers that make most vitamins huge take away the ENTIRE effect of the vitamin. Your swallowing nothing but junk and zero benefit of any sort of vitamin. Its disgusting what greedy corporate america is allowing the pharmaceuticals to do. But with a little hush money all plays along on the devil's playground! Personally I would switch generics every few months. For me, after a few months the generic version does not give me the same effect. When I switch it up, it is ok again. But everyone is different.

I apologize Sara-- it has been more than a decade and it has been a very frustrating and lonely road.

Thanks.

I am surprised. I have always thought that the Sandoz/Eon was the closest generic formula because Shire helped produce it ... What pharmacy dispenses it?

Thank you! I enjoyed you "book". I would like to know if you have the same negative side effects from AdderalI as I do. 1.I find I write "books' too when my Adderall is in full swing but whats worse is I tend to edit,re-edit, edit again until out of desperation to get my point across I gut the whole thing to just several sentences meanwhile 4hrs went by and it should have taken an hr. 2. Along those same lines I over-focus and could spend 4 hrs trying to figure out something very complex and way over my head that a math major or scientist would be better suited for. "poof"there goes 4hrs of my day.
Very alarming is that my memory seems to be getting worse as I am a "scatterbrain" to begin with. I forget appointments, misplace keys, wallet and some things I never find. Even when not taking it the symptoms are still there. Maybe just getting older (48) is the problem. Maybe i'm overreacting but Im afraid it may be causing early onset Alzheimers.IDK. Then there is mood swings when you come off it and it may have led to me being fired for saying something I should not have and possibly losing my GF as I get in these wierd Moods. If you can comment on this that would be great. BTW and FYI I have a far better results when I take it 10 minutes before a meal as it is absorbed slower along with digestion. I take XR 30 Adderall and not generic. Best, eric

You're welcome, friend. It's a tough enough road to hoe when you feel like no one- at least those who have the prescriptive power to help - is listening to you, believing or trusting you. I've been there and it's taken a long time and going in circles to find the right md's and pharmacists to work with. Now it seems that *my* beloved, reconnected, long-time psychiatrist is MIA ! I can't reach him anywhere !! Back to the topic, I'm upset at a reply I read a few entries after yours. It does absolutely no one any good when members of our own group, those who are ostensibly supposed to be supportive of our different struggles, are attacking one another. Saying "please don't take this the wrong way" does not absolve one , it actually adds insult to injury. How else is someone to take a direct hit ? I don't care who it's aimed at- it hits all of us if it hits one of us. Where is the moderator, anyway ? That said, I hope you are feeling better (glad your hubby got some clean skivvies lol)

Add two 6 ounce servings of albacore tuna in water to your diet each day and switch to just 1 serving/ day once the hair loss subsides. Eat it plain or mix it with anything you like to make it enjoyable.

I finally met with RN who disagreed with giving me immediate release and dosage VS. Dr. Bennett. Decided to follow his guidelines for now. We had a good talk but she is suspect about allergic reactive to inactive ingredients, bypass etcetera: I was respectful but firm: she says insurance NEVER covers brand name because ..... however, I said if I ask in-house pharmacist, and he "runs" it through insurance and they approve, will she put brand name adderall only: Pharmacist said as long as RN said medically necessary-- brand name; fully covered; no co-pay. They ordered brand: arrives Monday, tomorrow. So, we shall see ... I pray that it works. Be well, Sara.

I've never seen the Sandoz as the manufacturer name on any bottle I've been sold by CVS, Walgreens, Osco nor my local doctotr' office's pharm. I've never seen pink round pills but then again I've been on the same dosages for so long. None of the pharms in MA must carry Sandoz.

Yes, on Cape and surrounding area's the link round Sandoz are used. At Rite Aid, that's all they give out now around here. I have to go to select pharmacies to get TEVA/BARR, orange tablets.

TEVA/BARR 30mg Orange Football Shape are the Worst!! The Pharmacy gave me their Brand one Month and they were 100% ineffective!! I thought maybe I missed my Mouth with the 1st Pill! All the Problems I was taking the Medication for which had gone completely away, returned within 2 days. I became depressed, bedridden, felt hopeless,and was afraid Adderall would never work again. I finally got my next RX and asked for Pink Core Brand. They are excellent! Rite carries them. You may need to be specific. There have been thousands of Complaints about TEVA/Barr's Weak Generic Adderall. They are Probably getting Greedy like Most Companies are getting. They are losing Business, though, as the Word has gotten out that their Adderall is not working like it used to, many years ago.
