Best Generic Adderall Brands (Page 3)

Updated

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?

Barr was bought out by Teva. They merged and are now the same company.

Emily Demi: I'm guessing that efficacy depends on malady, as there are so many different responses. In my case, I experience fairly profound fatigue from MS, and have found the Sandoz generic to be the best. My adult son who has ADD agrees.
Sid:there are at least 3 round up pills so provide a better description or better yet, lok at the label for the manufacturer. If it's not there, make the pharmacy put it there so you know. I wish everybody on the forum would refer to their meds by the drug co. so readers could be sure.
What's shame: I used to take the real thing. I have to say that for me, Sandoz came closest. It must be an individual physiological thing, although on this forum, Cora is widely hated. That includes me.

I just threw the bottle away.. The markings are e 404... Has anyone else experienced hair thinning or heard of thinning hair while taking adderall? As I mentioned in my previous post, I had no problems with the oval, not sure of the markings..

Are you referring to the oval orange or the round with each 404?

Rox, do you know who makes the the 30 mg orange E 404? Does the same company make the oval orange ( I believe the markings are b 974)

Leelo, you should contact a pharmacy that maybe isn't so crazy busy like Walgreens or CVS, ask them what brand they carry? If they don't carry the brand you like, ask them if they can order it for you.. Tell them your current pharmacy is having problems keeping it in stock. It really stinks that we have to bounce from pharmacy to pharmacy to stick with the brand that works best for us...

The internet is a handy reference for identifying your generic adderall.

(For me, Sandoz is effective.)

UPDATE: I just spoke with my pharmacist, and yes adderall CAN CAUSE HAIR LOSS!!! WTH!!! Why the heck is this not listed as a side effect??!! I would've NEVER started taking this medication!!! Now what?! I Really thought I had found what I've been missing my whole life!!! I can concentrate, I actually finish tasks, and so much more... So, it's either stop taking this medication, that helps me so much, or continue to take, and accept the fact that I could be bald within a few months.. This is awful!! I feel like I'm living a nightmare.. So, obviously I'll have to stop taking this medication.. Does anyone know of another alternative? I will definitely ask my dr, but he's not even aware that adderall can cause hair loss.. Please help!

There is a rather new company that makes Adderall IR besides Barr/TEVA and Corepharma, and it is called Mallinckodt. Malllinckodt is absolutely horrible.

Avoid this brand at all costs....Right now, Wal-Mart seems to have them

Avoid!

I just got my prescription filled at wal mart, and wouldn't ya know.. The cursed white Mallinckodt. After dosing one time, and experiencing a headache and heart palpitations, I decided to search on the Internet and found this site. Dammit! I hope I'm not stuck with this garbage for a month. I'm going to flush it down the toilet if I can't return it!

I have been taking 45mg of Adderall a day for a while now. I get 45 of the 30mg per month, and take 1.5 a day (I hope I haven't lost my fellow ADHDers yet!!) Anyways, my script was working great until one month my CVS started only caring the round pink ones and they did nothing. I was crying because I felt so helpless. If I wanted them to order me another generic, I had to wait until the day my script could even be filled, and then it would take anywhere from 2-5 days for the new kind. If you are like me, I can't function at work for a few days with no medication.

After talking to my doc, she recommended filling my script at Costco (you don't have to be a member to use their pharmacy) and it had been life changing. No more judgemental pharmacists, and they always have the good orange oval ones, or the round orange Sandoz. Never the pink crappy ones.

Go to Costco people I'm telling you it will be the best decision you make! At least it is for me in Southern California!!

Cheers :)

Help PLEASE.
Adderall 20 mg IR (by Sandoz, containing e401) gave me killer migraines. Years ago I took Adderall 30 mg IR (also by Sandoz, containing e404) and it worked...that is until my old doc switched me to Concerta (which caused severe depression, most notable on the third day). Long story short, now that I'll be gratefully prescribed 30 mg IR again and am wondering if ANYONE has experienced ANY negative side effects from e404. I am praying that despite them both being made by the same manufacturer, that the 20's (marked e401) contain fillers not found in the 30's (marked e404). Has anyone RECENTLY made that switch from Adderall 20 mg IR (e401) to 30 mg IR (e404) and if so PLEASE describe any noticeable changes in side effects, or lack thereof. This info would help me avoid sooooooo much disappointment, not to mention depression. THANK YOU!

Yes!!! I've experienced horrible side effects!! I wasn't sure if it really was just sandoz... I didn't have any problems while taking Barr ( the oval orange) I switched to Sandoz, that's when I experienced the horrible side effects! Headaches!! Even worse, hair loss!!! Stop taking Sandoz!!! Report side effects to fda!!! Please!!! They need to know how horrible thus brand is!!!

Hi Sid, thank you so much for the advise. Just double checking, you are referring to the 30mg Sandoz IR tablets (not 20 mg) right? By the way I completely understand the intense headaches. The only description I could come up with for the 20mg's (E401's) is an acute increase in focus, quickly followed by an intense brain freeze, which I am hypothesizing is characteristic of neuronal apoptosis. This is no bueno:/

It raises blood pressure which could be what is causing your headaches. Check your blood pressure.

Yes, 30 mg ir Sandoz round e 401 or 410.. Lol. I was diagnosed ADD about 8 months ago.. It's really been a lifesaver, I can concentrate, stay on task etc... I was diagnosed in high school my parents really didn't want me taking it.. Anyway... Always took Barr, didn't have really any side effects other than suppressed appetite.. I'm a pretty healthy eater for the most part.. Started sandoz 3 4 months ago. Since then horrible side effects... Obviously hair loss being the worst!!! I read something about adderall being linked to fungus susceptibility .. Still trying to figure out what's exactly causing my hair loss.. I'm pretty sure it's because of Sandoz.. I switched back to Barr, since then my hair loss has slowed down.. Only time will tell... If it doesn't stop, I'll have to stop taking it... Sucks either keep taking this med that truly helps me in so many ways, or continue to loose hair... Obviously I want my hair back!!! Good luck! Please report side effects to FDA!!!
