Ask your doc for a script for Dextrostat---it's also a dextroamphetamine.
My husband is a psychiatrist and he said there has not been a significant shortage of Adderall in Texas----the shortage in the spring here was for the most popular generic form, which is also made by Shire. I suppose it's possible that Shire cut production of the generic to boost sales of the more expensive Adderall, but didn't actually increase the production of the Adderall. Stupid.
I don't know if you've tried the generics from other companies, but patients who are used to Shire's products tend to report lots of problems with the others. I'd say you are probably better off just switching to the Dextrostat.
i know at my pharmacy we have hit the limit the DEA will allow for the 10 and 20 and 30 mg strenghts this year. its a controlled 2 substance and they put a limit on sales. man subarban america is crazy about their c-2's but look down on potsmokers. bigots

Yikes.
I personally think ADD is a scam/fraud/farce/façade, what have you......
It's not. You can see how the brain of an ADD/ADHD patient fires very differently than a 'normal' brain through EEG readings and/or brainmapping. It is a very real condition. What alot of people don't realize though is that there are practical non/ medicinal methods to help change how the brain fires. Through conditioning by neurofeedback treatment, it has been proven that a brain can be re-trained to fire appropriately in instances where ADD/ADHD symptoms appear to be most prevalant and pervasive. This is not an instant fix... it takes many neurofeedback sessions to identify problem areas and retrain the brain. It's a fairly young science, but journals and testing show huge benefits and big implications.
I saw a news report where students are taking ADD meds to study and take exams. I do think that drug companies push meds and doctors get kickbacks. It seems almost everyone I know these days knows someone with ADD.
How does that explain gamers with ADD? my understanding is people affected with ADD can't sit still, cant concentrate on something for periods of time, doesn't pay attention to detail, among other things. None of that is a gamer's friend. You know games these days are a far cry from the NES days. I haven't looked up the stats on gamers with ADD but I only assume all this cuz it seems like every kid has ADD and the majority of kids do game.
I'm not questioning what all is going on in the head. Just how it's packaged and sold.
Example 1A
It's a paradoxical effect-----just as the medical treatment for ADD is speed (amphetamines) to "slow" them down.
Ah. So they dope up then game. I see.
Oh wait. Pair of docs ll I get it.
What a knee slapper!
