Camber Adderall Complaints (Page 5) (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?

REPORT

I was taking amphetamine/ dextroamphetamine salt combo 20mg tabs made by TEVA. Then got switched to the Camber brand and immediately noticed a difference. I wasn't getting the same effect/results, not even close ! Even taking an additional dose just left me confused and frustrated.
I'm going to talk to the pharmacist to see about exchanging what I have left for the TEVA brand. I'll post my results after that.

Re: Tevanooooo (# 7)

YES! I had that head pressure the whole month I was on it. I had to take Tylenol constantly for the headaches. I felt pretty good for about the first 7 to 8 days and then I became increasingly more irritable and downright angry and verbally aggressive while on it. I would get sleepy and sort of "spaced out" and numb. I had no motivation. It was horrible.

Re: mmmac (# 100)

I understand. I'm 54 and I have been taking it for the past 20+ years. I have fibromyalgia as well as chronic fatigue/lethargy from other medications I have to take and adderall (I've only taken generic) is the only thing that has helped me to be able to get out of bed and be productive, focused, alert and feel hopeful to be able to live a somewhat normal life. The Camber and other poor quality generics have made me so ill and have affected me adversely in so many ways and then add to that, the stress of trying to get your medication for the next month....it's too much. It is really unfair. Is there not someone we can file a complaint with? Maybe a class action lawsuit?

Also, has anyone tried getting the actual brand? Is that out of stock as well? Is it much more expensive and does it work better? I've never tried brand so I was wondering.

Re: Janalyse (# 101)

You’re totally correct!

I tried Vyvanse about 6yrs ago and it didn’t seem helpful @30mg.

However, last month my current doctor & I actually did discuss trying it again due to the Camber issues, ideally at a slightly higher dosage.
So that will happen next month and I’m very hopeful it will be successful.
Especially now that my other meds are brand name only and am not fighting the side effects of the inactive ingredients in generics of those.

The Camber generic does feel like poison and I’ve almost weaned myself off it entirely.

Until my next appointment and switching to Vyvanse, I’d prefer to fall asleep randomly and explain the disorder after if necessary over what this seems to be doing to my body and mind.

Re: mmmac (# 113)

Good luck! I hope Vyvanse will help you. Maybe your doc can prescribe 45 mgs if it comes in that strength. Or you could go in at 50 mgs. I’m unsure if the dosage corresponds to weight or symptoms or a combination of both, but it’s def worth a shot. Let us know how you do.

You should fill this form up. Let the FDA know about yr experience. I was severely poisoned by camber’s "fake" adderall and they are not being held accountable.

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

Camber brand does work but it’s less potent.

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 got severe lower abdominal pains. Very nauseous, headache, fatigue, unable to focus. I couldn't even do my job at work kept nodding off. The Camber Generic is very toxic!!!

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.

Re: Kim D (# 12)

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

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: 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: 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: 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.
