Camber Adderall Complaints (Page 4) (Top voted first)

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: Chuggle (# 117)

I reported this medicine to the FDA. It felt like poison . If your Stomach and mental health is being affected because of a medicine, why would trust to continue taking it?

I agree. I made a complaint 6 months ago to the FDA and Camber is still putting the life’s of people in danger until today

I have taken generic Adderall IR 30MG for 10 years for narcolepsy.

Thus, I have had many generic brands.

The two I would avoid at all costs are: Camber and Mallinckodt

I have taken Adderall IR for ten years and have been taking it for ten years.

Recently they gave me Camber.


There is no doubt something is profoundly wrong with this product.

I myself have been taking TEVA 20 mg IR bid for 9 years. I have had to accept the change to Camber. Am I happy about this? Nope. My pharmacist explained the TEVA factory in Israel due to numerous health code violations. I have had satisfactory results from Camber. Just the fact I can write this whole paragraph in one sitting tells me they do work. We may have to endure this for quite a while. Here is a link I'm sure a few of you have seen. Good luck to all.

Camber the worst! Sleepy plus broke out in rash brain fog made me a mess had no idea it was from that until I had to stop all meds and work back in and bingo. Mrg's keep changing went back and looked at some old ones I always keep a couple when their good and 20mg Orange Teva and Pink Elite Labs worked great for me now cant find. I see alvogen can get at CVS and Lennett at small local spot and Rhodes at Publix. If anyone is south florida with any advised do tell thx in advance

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!!

Re: Jill (# 16)

Same here!!! I took a antigen test and a PCR after it showing negative because i thought i got covid and antigen was inaccurate. This literally gives me covid-like symptoms. Camber is not working at all and i felt so bad like i’m on ambien or something. I’ve been on adderall for years and this is the worst.

Re: Diego (# 31)

But wait a sec, until tonight I had no idea that there were different manufacturers of generic Adderall. After looking for a picture of the pill I’ve taken for 20+ years, I found Elite was the manufacturer. My Adderall tablets are round this month. I didn’t care, it’s all the same right? However the day I started on the new round pills, headache, nausea, uneasy, yawning constantly, stomach pain, dizzy, no stamina, motivation or give a f’s at all. Crabby if anyone even whispers my name because the headache is so intense. Looking for an explanation, I even took a covid test. It was negative. Being so irritable, I went online and googled what’s wrong at Walgreens that they have no Adderall (they partially filled my Rx and told me to find another pharmacy outside of the Walgreens chain to get the rest of it). Trying to find an answer lead me to all these threads about generics. First I’d heard of it. Camber kept popping up as a stay away from manufacturer. I wondered what I was taking and looked at the bottle. Camber. I googled it and found description after description of what I was experiencing. My problems with taking Camber’s generic came long before I even knew there was a company called Camber. Yes it’s all in my head, but not because someone put it there. You worry bout yourself.

I have had to request that the pharmacy (I use Kroger) ONLY fills my Rx for Adderall with the name brand. I don't have health insurance so I am paying for it out of my own pocket and let me tell you that after all the nightmarish side effects I experienced with the Camber generic brand, paying the couple hundred dollars more for Adderall brand is worth it. I had to start using the extended release because it's cheaper but with my blink savings card (Blink is comparable to Good Rx) 30 of the 30mg XR Adderall brand costs me around $230.

At least I know if I'm getting the name brand every month my medication won't change. It's hard enough having ADHD without these pharmacies switching generics on us but they are NOT all the same formula!

Always check your prescription when you pick it up! Check the manufacturer and refuse it if it's Camber. Lanette doesn't work either but it doesn't have the nasty side effects that Camber does. The Kroger pharmacy I use is really inept at paying attention to what my doctor specifies on my Rx. They have tried numerous times to substitute a generic when my doctor clearly states to DISPENCE AS WRITTEN. So if anything, check to make sure your pharmacy is following directions.

I am so sorry all of you are going through this. I spent a whole entire summer in a deep depression because most of these pharmaceutical companies are manufacturing something that they have absolutely NO BUSINESS making!

Hang in there people. Hopefully these pharmacies will get the hint if more of us refuse to accept their fake ADHD medication.
