There Are Three Manufacturers Who Make Methylphenidate (Page 2)

The 3 Manufacturers are Mallinkrodt/Methylin, Sandoz and Watson Pharmaceuticals. On this day, December 3,2011 I learned that if a generic drug is back ordered in lots of different Pharmacies our HMO's will pay for the drug that is prescribed. All who are prescribed Methylphenidate 20 mg. are being turned away by CVS, RiteAid, including the pharmacies in some Giant food stores . If you are prescribed both forms of this drug do not let the Pharmacist fill one part of your prescriptions and if both are on 1 prescription sheet never trust anyone to complete the refill. They'll fill the one they have and as far as the other part, you lose!

ACTUALLY A FIVE YEAR PLAN WHICH IS GOVERNMENT (our dime) OPERATED so the Pharm industry can optimize its profits, regardless of the people who can't afford this system. In capitalist society it is the companies who can find their statistics and make profit decisions. The Government is not operating as capitalism we once knew. The govt is creating laws to allow them to make certain industries rich, with our personal and consumer habits data collection. Then with no payment for our data they control supply and demand. Hint: any small pharmacies left? bad deal for u.s. citizens. . They create the quota "shortages" to bump their profit. Their are no shortages. and why should drug enforcement set drug quotas, not their field, it should be health industry, and D.E.A. should not practice medicine!!! Or obstruct it!!
