I’ve now been off of adderall for a month bc I’m microdosing shrooms 4 times a week. It’s a game changer.

My provider and pharmacy have a great system working the order. My provider places the order approx. 3 weeks in advance (which ends up being about a week after I start my new prescription ), and that gives the pharmacy enough time to plan for how much medication they need in stock and when. They typically have the order a few days in advance but don’t physically fill it until the actual day it’s due. In the beginning of the shortage I was going without and it was a hot mess. My provider staying ahead of it was key to getting my medication on time.

Hopefully your provider can help you! We also have a “request refill” option in My Chart- while it takes a little extra work on your part, may help the pharmacy plan for stock..? Good luck, know it’s rough right now!

I take Ritalin, so thankfully haven’t had to deal with this! Adderall made me feel too wired and gave me heart palpitations and anxiety.

My provider changed my dosage instructions to adapt, was doing 10mg twice a day so 60x10mg a month, now I get the 20 mg pills and just break them in half! There hasn’t seemed to be a shortage for 20mg from what my provider and pharmacy have said

I do this too. I’ve been waiting on 20mg for 2 weeks.

I’m in Concerta and so is my wife - neither of us have seen any issues there luckily

Do we know how widespread it is? Is it all manufacturers and doses?

Haven’t had any issues since switching pharmacies to a low-income area. The worst I’ve encountered since switching is they partially fill it with however many is in stock and fill the rest a couple days later when it comes in.

How common and widespread is this shortage?

Pssst… I got some to sell here!

Ok FBI

No issues at my pharmacy

Jealous! I called a few.

I had to call 5 pharmacies last week. By the time my doctor called it in, they were out, and I had to track down a pharm with it in stock, call office back to have transferred…many times. Literally took an entire day.

Wow. So I ended up getting a script for vyvanse instead, was some effort to meet again with the provider but after calling a few pharmacies and no adderall…. So far think it works well, took a whole vacation week of meds and it reminded me how I need the meds for more than just focusing at work 😂. UnitedHealth Care added vyvanse to their covered meds too 🎉
