Lannett Adderall Reviews (Page 4) (Top voted first)

Today I picked up my 20mg x 2 daily adderall IR Instead of my usual adderall made by teva brand i was given a new type that I have never had before... It's supposedly a newer generic version from Lannett pharmaceuticals. It looks just like teva accept it's a lighter shade of peach color and it doesn't have that sweet flavor. It's more chalky like..its early evening and I decided to try one two hours have gone by and still nothing. Humm my question is has anyone else had the opportunity to try these newer version of adderall 20mg from Lannett pharmaceuticals? I will come back in a hour or so and give an update..oh i read a different blogpost and have read that some actually liked it better than teva brand but wished for the sweet taste but they claimed to like it so let's see what others have to say thx for your opinion.

Re: Rcma (# 75)

Thanks for the info! Do you mean that Walgreens can only order one generic brand at a time? Do you think they could still order Lannett (or any other non Teva brand)? CVS said they don’t have Lannett and it’s exclusive to Walgreens, they only have Aurobindo.
I’ve always liked Teva when I got it a few years back! Until this month, when Walgreens filled with Teva instead of Lannett. I kept waiting for it to kick in… it never did. So one day, I took an old Lannett pill I had instead, and was back to normal. these last 3 weeks have been a nightmare. Got pulled over twice, a speeding ticket (haven’t had one in 15 years!), etc

Aurobindo is the worst I’ve tried. unlike Teva, it does something, but put me in the worst mood. I had just switched pharmacies and that was all that CVS carried. Needless to say that was the last month I filled at CVS. I just wish I could know WHICH pharmacies have WHAT, typically they don’t tell you over the phone

What are your thoughts on Camber? And are they the same as Ascent? Which pharmacy has it?

Re: JD (# 85)

Respectfully, disagree. I explained biochemistry and metabolism and proper dosages. I passed along sound medical practice to determine proper dosages. Everyone has a unique epigenetic profile and their age, diet, lifestyle, other medications, DNA, and more contribute to their tolerance or intolerance to everything from caffeine to sunlight to gluten to pollen etc. Put simply, an optimal dosage should have a smooth rise and smooth landing. No "speedy jolt" and killer crash w/craving for more. Is that is happening -- biochemically / metabolically speaking -- then the dosage is too high or the person's body is highly alkaline, which accelerates the metabolism of amphetamine. Same happens with excess sugar and insulin rebound ... sugar high, sugar blues. It's metabolic. Addiction is very different... If someone is addicted to a high.... adducted to an EXCESSIVE dosage, that's a completely different subject. I am strictly referring to biochemistry and metabolism. Not psychological dependence. If you had two cups of coffee you might feel really high but chances are you would definitely crash and want more because it's strictly biochemical. A Sympathomimetic process impacting dopamine and neurotransmitters. Addiction is a psychological need for a mental state, And whatever causes it from chocolate to exercise to cigarettes to sex. Dependence is a biological biochemical need for something that produces a neuroendocrine situation in your body.

Re: JD (# 85)

That's not what this is.

When a person is using it to have a functioning brain, they can notice when it's not working as it should. The same amount works for years, and then one day their brain just doesn't function correctly, plus a bunch of side effects that make them feel ill.

Used medically, it has nothing to do with wanting more of the drug. For ADHD, anything above the effective dose will make the condition worse. It has everything to do with the drug being the same drug that the doctor prescribed and intended the patient to have. That is currently not happening. We're talking about problems with the actual medication.

Also...It has nothing to do with addiction, but thank you very much for illustrating the theory on how they're getting away with this... just brush them off as addicted drug seekers...

...and the rest of the patients are kids, nobody will listen to kids... just brush them off as acting up or not responding to the drug...

...then eventually after enough patients are taken off the drug due to poor response, they can take IR Adderall off the market because they think that will solve the drug epidemic (spoiler: it won't...just like their other brilliant ideas that have killed thousands of people).

Has anyone gotten RHODES?
This never ends. Just when I finally find a consistent supplier they change brands again.

Rhodes is totally new to me.
ANY EXPERIENCE?

Teva/Barr is my preference.
Lannett is workable.
AURO is INTOLERABLE.

Re: Truth (# 87)

Brilliant. Agree 100%>
FDA doesn't care. Manufacturers and distributors McKesson, AmerisourceBergen and Cardinal are cashing in.

Re: Rcma (# 10)

Rcma, One factor you are missing in the 80-125% (it's 125 not 120) bioequivalence standard is that the 90% confidence interval has to be within the 80-125% range. Which means that the average pill has a smaller range from 100 than 80-125.

Another issue is that after they pass the bioequivalence tests and get approved, the FDA leaves it up to the pharma companies to self regulate. (FDA is underfunded and can't handle the volume otherwise.)

Twice I had been given something from an Indian company, it was basically useless. Nothing against India or Indian people, but their pharma industry is a sham. It was a blind test for me. I take the meds, they don't work, I look up the pill online. Both times, an Indian company or Indian owned subsidiary. 1 other time it was a white pill with the exact same shape and size of Sun (yellow) / Aurobindo (light orange) brands. I didn't look that one up at the time. Probably another Aurobindo supplied junk. Some of these companies have frequently failed FDA inspections and have been known to and caught cooking the books on the ingredients and potency in their meds.

Don't think I have ever been given Lannett brand. But Aurobindo, I was taking 120 to 140 mg daily (not exaggerating) and it was less effective than 50mg of generic Teva (that I had left over from 2010). Even factoring in lower quality fillers, there is a very strong chance that Aurobindo is not within the 80-125% range. Would be nice if someone crowdsourced testing of their medication to see what they are actually giving us. Years ago I tried the Indian Sun brand (They also own NorthStar). Found out on the FDA site that it was being manufactured by Aurobindo.

I had an allergic reaction and will NEVER use it again! TEVA is by far the best!

Re: dawnkaree (# 102)

I've taken Lannett IR adderral for 2 days now instead of whatever the other generic is that i took for years, and it has no effect on me either. I hope my pharmacy will do what yours did and note not to fill it with that brand- hopefully that's not a switch they've made full time

Re: cali c (# 108)

Lannett generic is absolutely horrible! I had 0 motivation, very fatigued, dizziness, lightheaded, horrible migraines, awful taste in my mouth and no focus!!! Now I am out of an entire month's supply of medication and I need it to function! With all of the awful reviews on this manufacturer you would think something would have been fined by now!!! I will be going back to my old pharmacy to get the brand that actually works and won’t make me feel like I have the FLU!

Re: dawnkaree (# 102)

How can they sell you subpar, if not totally fake, medication, and when you complain be like, "Oooooh sorry, there's nothing we can do!"
It's insanity. There's no other product where they could get away with doing that to a customer. Can you imagine???

Re: Rcma (# 15)

Appreciate the response and If I may follow up:

-How long ago did you contact Teva and learn about the backorder?
-Also, I failed to specify both meds look the same (generic), is Lannett XR vs IR?
-I usually stretch my monthly script to about 45 days so I can play around titrating up +/-25% on my own and start there..

I'm unfamiliar with TEVA Dextroamphetamine Sulfate 10mg and will read up on it.

Thank you for your response

Definitely not same formula or manufacturing plant. Lannett may be purchasing TEVA's market share but they're absolutely not the same.

Re: Jeno712003 (# 24)

Thank you for sharing those articles. I didn't know they entered an exclusive distributor agreement for the Teva Adderall in the U.S. So I guess that means that the Lannett generic is basically the only one with the same fillers as the Teva. Appreciate your detective work!
