Adderall XR & ER both work well. Unfortunately, with all the shortages, I had to wait so long to get my script filled that it expired, and I had to get another. Meaning I went as long as a month without it. It is a considerable inconvenience seeing it is very beneficial to me. Does anyone have any advice for me? As when I don't take it, I am all over the place, and I don't get anything complicated that I need to. I am a mom of 3, so I have to be organized, and that is not working. Any advice? I could try any other meds until the government fixes this issue... I think the inconsistencies with being on it and having a massive gap without really is worse than entirely not being treated for it. My anxiety is just indescribable due to this issue. Any help is very much appreciated!!

Hey! I’m a senior in high school and the shortage is very concerning considering I need to keep my grades up to keep my scholarship. Using big pharmacies like CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Sams club, etc. is almost guaranteed that you won’t be able to get your medicine filled. I use a smaller locally owned pharmacy because not as many people go to that pharmacy so they have a higher stock verses big pharmacies. Try to see if there are any locally owned pharmacies in your area! I’ve been able to get my prescription filled without issue using a smaller pharmacy while some of my friends that also have ADHD have had issues because they use more corporate-ran places. I hope this helps!! Good luck!
