Mp 447 Yellow Pill Discontinued (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Are these tablets Adderall, and are they a good brand?

I also heard that they may be discontinued. Is that true as well?

I think Teva is the worst brand I can't feel them at all. Sandos maybe a little more costly but it's well worth it people don't often get sandals so they don't know just how good it is.!

For me they were pretty good, no problems with them. I’ve been through many brands recently and so far they are up there but of course nothing like Teva. There are about 4-6 decent brands and 5 you never want to get. I spent some hours and came up with this list, from best to worst:

1. Teva
2. Sun
3. Sandoz
4. Lannett
5. Camber
6. Zydus
7. Coreapharma
8. Mylan
9. Alvogen
10. Mallinckrodt

They worked great for me , compared to most other several other generics, Teva being number one of course but these are definitely decent compared to a lot others that are bad

Re: DocK (# 8)

You're dead on for the most part. Teva/barr are the same brand tho. But as you mentioned as being a little better (I'm paraphrasing). Are in reality much better imo. In fact I think they are the only generics that fully do what they're supposed to do. Seems to be the general consensus as well if you research a bit. It's Teva & Sandoz in the top spot with Teva edging it out. Then a drop to Cor (pink ones) then a huge drop to the white octagon shaped ones, then these others that do absolutely nothing except cause a headache & tiredness like the yellows and other orange generics, etc.

I was given this generic Adderall IR 30MG tablet this month.

I have previously taken Teva and others over the last 10 years.

The first odd thing that no one has discussed here is that on my bottle, the yellow tablet we are discussing states it was manufactured on the bottle by Northstar.

Apparently it is manufactured actually by Sun pharmaceuticals and distributed by Northstar as I called Sun and asked them.

But what is even more bizarre is while browsing the Internet it states that this tablet, MP 447 (Yellow and round)
was discontinued.

Can anyone do a little research and see if this is actually correct? I am very concerned

Re: Samana (# 3)

I donot find the Yellow 447 pills as efective. The orange round ones are more effective, and the smaller oval shaped orange ones have the most effect on me personally

Re: DocK (# 8)

My pharmacist told me that it was the same make up as any of the other Adderall generic. The FDA would have not approved it and he’s been a pharmacist for 25 years and I know that it makes me feel different than the orange ones or the pink ones. How do you deal with that?

Yes hormonal disruption and gut issues go hand in hand. For the past year it has been a disheartening. For a while I was on Alvogen and did pretty well. Then the pharmacy only had Teva, which I had issues the first month and then things got better. Then all the sudden they have been filling with Sandoz. The fillers in these are the worst. Bloating, digestive issues, hormones are off the charts again. Time for a liver detox!

Re: SJ (# 14)

This is very enlightening for me because I have also been on stimulants for ADD my entire life. From 7 years old to 38 and I swore by the Teva brand. When Teva was out of stock about 5 months ago, my pharmacist told me to try the Lannett brand because he has another patient who is picky like me and likes the Teva. It’s oval and peach colored just like Teva, but about a third of the cost. I thought they were decent, but right around the same time I started them 5 months ago, I started having MAJOR GI issues like I had never had before. I won’t get into the disgusting details of it, but it was so bad I went to the ER. I thought it had to either be this new generic from Lannett, some kind of infection or stress related because I have been going through more than ever in my personal life recently. Well after I got all the tests back, I knew it was not caused by an infection of any sorts. It has been off and on for the last 5 months and seems to also be linked to my monthly cycle as well or exacerbated by hormonal changes. Now that I am reading these reviews where a few of you have mentioned GI and hormone disruption, I am wondering if it was the generic Lannett meds. I have been given the Sun Pharma generics for a few days worth until they get more in stock, so I will report back how it does. I just took my first dose about 20 minutes ago. Also, I think I had these a long time ago and didn’t like them, but I noticed along this forum that all the negative reviews were around 2017 and all the good reviews are around 2021, so maybe Sun has changed their formula over the years to keep a competitive edge to their product. Us ADHD diagnosed really don’t like our meds to be f****d with lol

Re: DocK (# 8)

Absolute spot-on post. It's why, in 2022, a generic Adderall can feel like Phenergan, a different generic Adderall can feel like ephedrine, while a generic Xanax can feel like Nyquil, with none of the three providing any relief for the symptoms for which they were prescribed. Meanwhile, a decade of Medschat posters (as well as others) have been filing FDA complaints, calling pharm companies, arguing with (at best) clueless medical personnel, and contacting governmental officials to no avail. The system is captured and broken.

Up until now, brand name medications have largely prevented this problem, but in the last few months there seems to be an issue with two different brand name benzodiazepines. And, of course, in the case of the erstwhile Adderall IR, it doesn't exist. What is dispensed as "Adderall IR" bears no resemblance to original Shire Adderall tablets circa 20 years ago. That superior product's formulation is a mystery that I (as well as many other ADHD-ers) would love to solve.

Any theories on the malfeasance of the pharm industry not making "what it says on the tin"? I've read " Bottle of Lies" by Katherine Egan, I know about the FDA/DEA allotted quotas of stimulants/benzodiazepines/opioids decreasing by more percentages each year in recent years even as the numbers of patients with conditions that are treated by these types of medications increase (while psychedelics like LSD have been increased by eight thousand percent for 2022; I cannot imagine why), but I think poor production/manufacturing techniques, the quota squeeze, and "the opioid epidemic" are only the tip of the iceberg.

There's been a 180 degree turn in the last few years where the prevailing belief is that marijuana/CBD can take the place of all scheduled drugs if one only finds the right "strain". It's as if the idea of everyone having a unique brain is lost on all of these people pushing pot--some people do not find it helpful and/or functional. I'm sure this has a lot to do with legalization along with the fact that opioids and benzodiazepines are off-patent, and most stimulants will be too in a few years. Analogous reason to why neuroleptics (aka " second generation antipsychotics") have been illogically pushed as a panacea (!!!!) for mild depression, anxiety, or insomnia. It's patently insane (double pun intended).

If a drug is non-scheduled, amenable to "me too" prescribing, causes a palpable sensation distinguishable from placebo (even if unpleasant), can be priced high enough to accommodate a disingenuous yet wide-ranging rebranding campaign, and is largely prescribed to an easily-discredited marginalized population who will become less functional from its effects, it can be wildly successful! --The Second (Generation of) Antipsychotics Law!

Re: David (# 2)

As far as I have seen with people I personally know in my life they use those inactive ingredients, and especially the coloring to get the pill they want. They go on a site just like this..find out reaction with the one they got, and they go to their doctor complain..and get the "good" version of adderall or suboxone whatever it may be. Usually they are seeking the abusable version as opposed to the types that have safeguards to try and prevent abuse. these adderall do the same as the orange candy tasting 20s, or 30s. might take a little longer to kick in, but equal results
