Camber Adderall Complaints (Page 4)

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?
Re: Kim D (# 12)
I am not a fan of Walgreens but use them because of their locations are everywhere and if I have a rx while I’m on the road I can have it filled. Plus they always filled with Teva for my adderall rx. But last month they were out and I had to have the dr office send it to another Walgreens that did have some in stock. I only was able to do that after calling each Walgreens that were within 30 mins away. I just opened my bottle I picked up earlier today and it’s not teva but this cambert stuff and now I’m really worried. I think I’ve had this manufacturers adderall once and it was headache and felt lethargic and grumpy. And worried this is going to be Walgreens new source of genetic adderall.
Re: Sinthia (# 73)
Agreed, this is not healthy.
I felt the same way ( or worse ) and filed a complaint with the FDA. Someone might Jill themselves taking these meds by Camber
Re: Minerva Seeks (# 44)
Please… do that testing. I’ve been taking these for months and I thought I was the problem.
Re: NotAJunkie77 (# 19)
BS… I’ve been wondering what the hell’s been wrong with me for so many months now. I’ve same problems as many of the others on here have been having: major depression, tired, a complete lack of motivation. I was doing some work at a buddies house who’s also prescribed adderall and I had forgotten my meds. He gave me 1/2 a 30mg Teva tablet which is 1/2 my normal dose and I couldn’t believe it. The difference was unmistakable, I felt normal again. I’m really really mad right now and I’m definitely “NotAJunkie77(#19)”
And if you don’t have a problem with Camber or any other brand of adderall you’ve been taking why are you lurking around on a page where people are bitching about adderall? They all seem to be working perfectly for you so why bother looking up complaints on Adderall?
Re: Hez (# 40)
I am so sorry I meant to send that Diego. I apologize. I should have said that anyways. I was just that irritable and not feeling well that day from the medicine. Please accept my apology. .
Re: The truth tell (# 55)
Well 3 at once is the magic trick? You have me laughing so hard right now. Zantac and couldn’t walk. That’s so funny!
I knew it wasn’t just me after taking Camber IR Adderall. Something felt off so I just felt I had to google. I’m finding a lot of people feel the same about camber. I wrote a complain to the FDA, I encourage others to do the same. Click on the link that was shared on this thread… It seems to be nobody’s problem. My doctor said he has no control over the manufacturer that my pharmacy gets their RX from. And my local Walgreens said they just get what they receive. They fill your prescription and everything else is out of their hands.
Re: PeterInPalmBeach (# 62)
I did let pharmacist know and they got defensive and said "It is the same medicine". They never listen, the FDA don’t listen, the doctors don’t listen. I know what Teva medicine and my body felt like verses wanting to die, crying, s****ing my pants, vomiting, can’t remember what I am doing and walking around in a daze. Even my coworkers and family kept saying "You look so pale. Are you ok?". Tell me that’s the same damn medicine. Every one should be put in jail for theft and abuse of patients for monetary gain.
Re: PeterinPalmBeach (# 65)
My Gosh! You described my symptoms to a T! I wrote Walgreens corporate and FDA. I am using Sandy’s this month and it is very weak and don’t help ADHD very well and I am so sleepy but I am not s****ing myself or crying with depression like I was with Camber. I miss Teva. They worked
Re: Kim D (# 12)
Clearly many thousands of patients in need of help have experienced numerous physical and emotional side effects from the CAMBER (aka Camber) version of Adderall. Please let the FDA know about ANY issues with this generic medication, often used for ADD,ADHD, Narcolepsy, Compulsive Binge Disorder, Shift Work Disorder, etc. There is a link, prior to this post, you can click to advise the Good and Drug Administration of any problems you are having with this medication or any medication. When enough people alert them action is taken. Camber/Cambor once we advised to RECALL a heart medication as it was actually filled with the active ingredient in Viagra for erectile dysfunction (ED). I personally have been taking since January, unknown to me, as Walgreens here in Florida switched to this manufacturer in India. I contribute to suffer gastrointestinal distress, diarrhea, inability to focus, lethargy and deep depressive symptoms that had previously been controlled.
Re: Caitlin (# 17)
I can't stop yawning, either. Camber is worse than being unmedicated!
Re: Kim D (# 5)
I know exactly what You mean I am on 30 mgs and they make Me so sick. They also make Me very depressed. They are ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS!!!!
January began my use of generic Adderall, made by Camber out of India. I want aware for two months that the manufacturer changed. Looking back I experienced fatigue, depression,a need to lay down far too early in the day, intestinal distress and diarrhea, agitation and a brain fog that also was mixed with inability to focus or accomplish basic tasks. After three months I told family that I needed help as I was feeling so depressed I wanted to give up. I began seeing a psych NP and treated with intranasal Spravato as I was in a bad way. It wasn't until then that I noticed that the bottle read CAMBRIA and wasn't Teva or another generic I've been used to in the 30mg IR category.
Please submit a report to MedWatch online. The FDA listens but it takes many voices and not just ten. You can Google MedWatch FDA drug report and you'll be directed to that site. You should let the pharmacist know and your doctor as ALL were surprised when I told them that this generic wasn't at all what my brain and body were used to for ADHD.
Hang in there. Pete in Palm Beach
Yes it made me physically ill!
Re: AR (# 57)
Same exact happened to me plus a full body rash. I was so messed up for a couple months i actually increased my dose thinking it would help had no idea i was just poisoning myself. within 1 week of totally changing the brand was 100% better
I just left Walgreens . I complained to the pharmacist about the same problem. This pill is dangerous. They told me that there is a shortage and they can only find generic pills from this brand.
Quick update, pharmacy is going to order Epic Pharm brand as it is the only other brand they can even get right now. Will post an update after a few days, I get them tomorrow.
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!!
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!!!
