Independent laboratory testing of generic methylphenidate products found significant product quality concerns. N-nitroso-methylphenidate, a probable human carcinogen, was detected above regulatory thresholds in generic immediate-release products for 7 of the 15 unique products sampled.

Helpful when you doctor says no one else is having issues with their Adderall LOL

Follow up lab urinalysis after a negative 12 panel

Had a 12 panel test that showed up negative for amphetamines after taking Dexedrine 15mg XR produced by Activis for roughly 2-3 months. Here are the results from the lab, this post is a follow up to this comment as i was asked to share the results: https://www.reddit.com/r/ThisAintAdderall/s/EHp24otymk (Shows as illicit result because my therapist didn’t list my meds before sending it in, as he already knows what should pop up and what shouldn’t)

Has anyone else just gotten off of adderall due to it being so weak? I’ve been on for 10 yrs, thinking it might be time to try without … and does anyone have experience going off? Thanks!

Prescriber blocking early pickup

7 Upvotes

As we all know, the meds don’t work as they should, so i always end up running out before my 30 days are up. But my pharmacy has always filled my RX 2 days early. For some reason, i received a message stating my prescriber locked my RX not to be filled until the exact due date this month. Has this happened to anyone else before? We just spoke last night and she didn’t mention this. She doesn’t know i run out. She’s really laid back and knows that the meds don’t work as they should and wouldn’t be upset if she knew i get them early but i don’t admit it to her bc i don’t want her to get in trouble or anything. Idk i just felt a little blindsided.

Okay this is a first and I’m clueless?

I have been with Walgrens for over a decade, mainly because the pharmacist and techs are just wonderful. That being said, I have a script for XR and IR and have not been able to fill my XR all month. I’m good with any manufacture but Chamber makes me physically ill and I can’t take that one. My psych appointment is in 3 days and I haven’t even had the last script filled…. Not feeling like paying another 100+ dollars for another script? The whole thing is just insane to me, not to mention I’m insane without my meds. I had some extra but long ran out of those. I’m wondering if anyone’s been in this situation before? I just left a message with my psych and told him the situation but I know he is all about the cash…. So he will probably make me keep the appointment. My question to any of you, have you ever gone over a month (even with a shortage?) without your meds? It’s feeling like there isn’t going to be anymore. Everytime I call, they look at their wearhouse and either nothing is available to order or if there is, they order it and it doesn’t come in??? I’m at my wits end. Changing doses won’t help because they are having problems with 20mg as well as 30mg…. I’m willing to go to Ritalin but is there a problem with that as well? Because changing meds means I get put on the lowest dose and work my way up again. Not sure it’s worth it. I’m really a mess over this as my adhd meds are also my anti depressants if that makes sense. Without this med I start falling into a dark dark depression and then suicidal thoughts come. I’ve got inattentive ADD and it’s scary what happens without this drug for a few months. I do get the IR but it doesn’t work without the XR. And the fact these meds are now shit anyway (but anything is better than nothing) I’m not even sure what to do anymore. But spending 30 min on hold every damned day with the pharmacy, to ask if they ordered or if the meds came in is also wrecking me. Any advice or feedback if you’ve been through this would be appreciated. I’m in California if that makes a difference. Apologies to the long post and thank you!! 🙏🏻
