Camber Adderall Complaints (Page 3)

Camber's new generic for Adderall IR 15mg is no good. Prior to it I got 10mg Adderall from CVS and it worked great! Just got a fill from Kroger since CVS was out of stock. The brand is from Camber and not only does it not work, it makes me feel unwell, sleepy and super irritated. It’s crazy how companies are able to differentiate in their generics like they do. This Camber brand just makes me want to go to sleep but I feel so unwell it’s hard to. I can’t focus at all on anything but how sick I feel. Don’t take this new stuff people and if you have what did you think?

My Walgreens is now dispensing Camber in Florida. Useless for ADD symptoms and my blood pressure was all over the place-mostly low which is the opposite of what Adderall should do. I hope you can continue to find a generic that works

My comment was actually quoting someone else’s post insulting everyone who had a bad experience with the brand.

I am just so SICK of this GENERIC ADDERALL situation! Getting prescribed medicine that is meant to help people like ourselves function properly in our everyday lives SHOULD NOT BE THIS DIFFICULT! I don't understand! IF there is a legitimate shortage of the active ingredient to make generic adderall, WHY do these INFERIOR GENERIC companies ALWAYS seem to pop out of the woodwork with PLENTY of their bogus "medicine" to go around? Could it be because they aren't really USING any of the "active ingredient" or they aren't using hardly any of the "active ingredient" in their pills and that's why they are the ONLY suppliers that seem to be available to fill our prescriptions? IF they were as good and as reputable as TEVA they too would be out of the active ingredient too! I'm just SICK of this! I wish someone would find another way for our prescriptions to get filled, WHATEVER means it takes!

Re: Optimistic (# 1)

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW! THIS IS NOT OK. I ate a very healthy meal, I'm very hydrated, I took my regular supplements my scoop of coconut oil. Then I took my new generic 30 mg and now I feel like complete s***. Haven't been able to get anything done except for hang out on the toilet and pace around uncomfortably comfortably feeling terrible!

Note to anyone that needs help if you take calcium and vitamin C together you should be able to stop the effects of any type adderall. I typically would do this at bedtime but as soon as I took this medicine and it kicked in I took it right away because I started to realize I feel like s***, I looked up the company and this is where I'm at right now!

Now if we see a bunch of people getting sick there's gonna be a class action. They need to fix this. I don't want this medicine, I want my other f*****g medicine or something better. Usually it helps with my social anxiety and my ADHD and AD but this just made everything all the worse! Like I'm literally taking things to stop it and neutralize it in my system because this is like seriously messed up how I feel. And to see all the reviews in all of the listing all over the Internet was really concerning. This stuff just hit Jacksonville Walgreens... I wish I could send it back and wait until something better happens and I wouldn't care how long I'd have to wait because this isn't worth taking if it's not right!! I'm tempted to do a marquis and reagent test also a mass spectrometer / chromatograph analysis because I CAN do that! And only after ONE dose and it's terrible!

Let's keep spreading the word ya'll! This isn't right. Imagine mom's and dad's that are giving this to their kids and they don't understand why they feel terrible and what they're used to feeling on proper Medicine.

ADD/ ADHD since Fire Marshall Bill was new??

Re: stephwilll (# 8)

Thank you for sharing and giving this suggestion! I was trying to figure out where to report my six month nightmare (and periodic month of craziness from time to time over the past two years).

I received my Adderall a few times, from Kroger over the years that I was confused about, and I thought it was "bad/inactive"....but after I was getting the prescription late last year, into this year (six months between my med reviews) I started feeling like crap! Tired, depressed, just slept for hours extra until the meds would hit me all day once for an hour and a half or two! It was awful, because during that time I felt like my mind was participating in a three mile sprint and just a few minutes of walking downstairs and trying to clean would have me whipped! I started taking half a dose (15 mg) but it still wasn't great!

An hour and a half before my drs appt, I took the half pill that I had been doing for over two weeks (I thought maybe my dose needed to be lowered or needed an extended release etc). The nurse freaked out about my blood pressure! She took it three times before changing arms to take it another two times. While I do tend to have slightly higher blood pressure (and "white coat" syndrome), I kept explaining that it's normal for it to be higher. After several questions and serious concern of hers, that I didn't take seriously at first, I asked her what it was reading at....201/120??. That's when I explained that was extremely high, and probably why I had just told her I needed to discuss the new brand of awful pills!!

Laying in bed with my BF higher than ever. Worst experience! Poison. We need to make noise and be heard. This isn't right. And it's not just Adderall, it's other meds to from this s*** company! Very upset, I felt poisoned all day and night. There is nothing left in my guts now that's for dam sure.

Re: JoJo (# 36)

I feel you! I'm supposed to go over a 14 page contract for a Management position at a medical spa, And do my training. I picked up my prescription and was ready to go having a great freaking day and then all the sudden boom just like you... I'm really sorry we are all going through this it's very unfair. And I'm sitting here many many hours Later with my heart bounding pulse in bed, I only took one 30 mg around 7:00pm yesterday is 10:09am today this is wrong!!! God forbid if I just rode through it and took my 2nd dose how I would be feeling right now honestly I Probably would've went to an urgent care the way I was feeling. I have ibs and possibly celiac that is getting diagnosed next week after biopsies and this medicine wrecked me badly.

This needs to stop with the generic Adderell. I am so sick to my stomach. I am so tired that I am fighting sleep, my skin is irritated, I feel like I took a combo of Valium and a laxative. Something is wrong with this medicine. I am scared now cause this company gave cancerous agents out in one med. I am so depressed now, keep crying, anxiety real bad. My eyes burn. I can’t think or remember stuff the brain fog is so bad. What can we do regarding FDA? How do we form a group to let FDA know that enough is enough.

I'm the only one who is dealing with this well I guess...I get 90 30mg ir and in SoCal Walgreens was the only game in town...I read the horror stories about it on here...but it was the only place, what else could I do?

I take the 3 at once, I find myself enjoying things in about 1 or 2 hours...standing up typing, aroused...it's not consistent, but it reminds me of the old Core Pharmas...

Hope you aren't letting these posts affect your benefits from the medication...don't think about it, and I promise you will be just fine. Once I had taken Zantac thinking it was Oxy 20 and I couldn't walk, my brain was convinced I had taken 40 mg and I literally was stumbling and slurring words...the placebo effect is so powerful...forget your presuppositions, forget yesterday and try again tomorrow.

I have had my pharmacy switch brands on me before, and I've had some lackluster experiences with other brands but none have been as drastic as this Camber.

My main complaint is that I feel tired all day, more tired than if I hadn't taken any at all, almost like I'm sedated...but there is an underlying odd and anxiety laden alertness which has my brain running in overdrive (while glued to the couch.)

Yesterday I was so sleepy I had to take a nap, and then I was up until 4:00 a.m. I have never had medication mess with my sleep schedule this severely before. I literally had to kick my own butt to drag myself into the shower this morning and just washing my hair felt like a Herculean task.

As I said before, I've had medications that I felt just didn't work right or perhaps the ratio was off and didn't mess with my personal chemistry like I was used to, but this medication is so wildly different than the Teva 20 mg twice daily that I usually have. Honestly I think I would get more done throughout the day if I just skipped the meds completely.

It's not that it doesn't do anything at all, it's definitely doing something... unfortunately for me it's just seems to be the complete opposite of what I need.

I did notice that whenever I went off my meds in the past, I experienced the crashdown which lasts for about 3 days in which time I get those shiny zig zag visual floaties for a little while, it only lasts for about an hour and it only happens once during the adjustment period. I have no idea why but the two times I went off my meds I remember I had them both times. I have steadily been on my meds for about a year-and-a-half now but on my second day into this new medication I got the floaty shiny C shaped thing again. It only lasted about an hour but I find it odd that I'm experiencing that side effect even though I haven't skipped any days in a very long time.

Sorry this is so long I find myself rambling again LOL. I hope that by sharing my experience it can help some of you who need to know that this is not all in your head, this medication sucks for a lot of people and I called my Pharmacy and told them that I will cover the cost if they could get me any other brand other than this. They said they would put a note on my file that it gave me a bad reaction and make sure that I don't get this medication again. Good luck my friends!!!

Re: SusieQueue (# 56)

Worst month of my life! I’m a stay at home mom recovering from Covid and a continuing bout of either stomach flu/food poisoning and I’ve been hit with some post viral severe chronic fatigue made so much worse by this Camber!!! The depression is unreal too. I barely have the energy to brush my daughters teeth or change her diaper it’s that bad. Anyways, today was my refill date and I had been calling the pharmacy since the start of this telling them don’t ever give me that poison ever again. I asked to only be given Sandoz or Teva. They said they would try to order it but the whole back order thing likely through October. I told them how sick the med was making me. I called two days ago to see if I had won the lottery and they had any in at all. Well, apparently they had put a special order in for me and a few others they said. She put me on hold to check the safe and came back to the phone saying she had enough to fill mine and she was putting it off to the side for me. Did not want to get my hopes up, so when I went to pick up today I made sure to check first it was Teva. Lo and behold! It was!! I never wanted to cry such happy tears As I did today! Im already starting to feel a lot better and I have no doubt not only does Camber not work, but I think it’s some kind of poison too! Been sick an entire month and the coincidence is too weird. It at least messes up our immune systems I think. Who knows if this a new way terrorists attack a country? Something is really really bad about this med!!
