20 Mg Adderal Generic

I recently got my generic adderall filled from a new pharmacy. The bottle says its amphetamine 20 mg tab MAL. It has a 20 on one side of the pill with four partial scores and the other side has an M inside a box. The pill is 8 sided. The pill doesn't have the potency my previous pills have does anyone have any info on thi particular pill? ## I am having the same problem.I filled my adderall from my Pharmacist I always go to.. I cannot find any real defined reason of why the sudden change and Pharmacist never said anything?? The potency is not the same dosage I have been on. ## Have any of you asked your pharmacist to replace them with a different brand? ## If I'm not mistaken, the label that says 'MAL' on it is referring to the generic amphetamine + dextroamphetamine sal...

Which is the better generic company? I just got GLOBAL and they are like taking sleeping pills. I'm sleeping 20 to 24 hours a day for days. If I didn't need to pee, I might never wake up. Can any body help me before I go back to sleep? ## Ive never heard of anybody falling asleep on adderall thats really weird....ur the first one i heard of that slept on them...maybe its intensifying another medication u take. I would talk to a doctor and tell them it done a friend like that u dont have to say u done that...goodluck ## Everyone is different. Been taking it for 15+ years and still have different reactions with the many brands or foods/drinks. Magnesium is another . Maybe get ir not the xr. xr drags the dose out over time. I hate the XR for this reason. Maybe its time to up your d...

who makes the generic adderall 20 mg round orange tablet - I need to find out who actually is the manufacturer so I can get my pharmacy to order this brand. ## The only round, orange 20mg generic that I'm finding right now has an E over 401 on one side and a crosshatch score on the other and is manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals. If your pharmacy has provided you with it before, then they should have record of it in their files, thus they'd be able to check and make sure that it's the correct one. You can learn more Adderall details here. Are there any comments or questions? ## Thank you so much for the information. My previous pharmacy refused to give me the details when I told them I was going to go to a competitor because they were charging over double for generic add...

Which companies manufacture "Generic equivalents" of ADDERALL XR 20mg capsules? I looked on CVS website. They list Name Brand and 4 Generics: Name Brand on Their site: Adderall XR 20mg Cap, Shire US Inc, NDC: 540920387, Pill ID: ADDERALL XR 20mg, capsule, orange. The picture has ©2005GS.

No insurance and they are charging me 301.. ## Depending on the dose the price per pill may vary. Generics are another way of cutting costs. Shire has programs if you qualify. Good luck ## Anyone can use Rx coupons.. I get 120 30 mg mixed amphetamine salts, the orange Teva with a coupon is 83.63 at walgreens. ## Hi kassie, there are rx coupons available for generic Adderall. For example, this site offers a free Rx Discount Card which you can bring to your pharmacy when you refill your script. It can typically save you 20% or more, is reusable, and doesn't expire. Hope this helps! ## Kassie, Walgreens has A discount card they can use for You. My state Ct made us have to get insurance a few yrs ago an depending on your age U can get help - I truly hope you have a Walgreens where ever ...

I have been on generic IR adderall with my first being Teva. I could not take that at all! I tried the 10 mg and 20 mg's and it made me so nervous and jittery that I had to take a nerve pill and go to sleep. Then CVS gave me another generic version but I can't remember the name. It didn't make me nervous but it also didn't really give me any effects at all. So I just happened to find 20 mg Sandoz generic. Those were the best generic for me by far! But then the town I live in now only prescribe Teva. My husband had to go out of town to find the Sandoz and it's a pain to have to go to the pharmacies to see what brands they have because they can't/won't even tell you over the phone what manufacture brand they have. For the last month I have been going through a ...

So I have been taking 20 mg instant release Adderall for years and I cannot seem to find one that is consistently working for me. The pink ones I was recently taking seem to work great but now have almost completely quit working for me. Any suggestions as to which generic is the best? ## Unfortunately, Adderall is not a good medication as its effectiveness is affected by several things including the food we eat, the timing of food, stomach environment, our psychosocial state etc. Consider talking to your doctor about trying a different stimulant such as Vyvanse which may be a better option. ## Hey Tracy, I also have been taking 20mg Adderall IR twice daily for over 3 years. Before that, it was several years of 70mg Vyvanse. I started out with the Sandoz/Eon peach 401's as my first s...

Hi. I have ADHD along with depression. I use Escitalophram 10mg at bedtime for depression, also along with 5 mg. Ambien. I used to take Temazapam 10 mg before I saw studies associating it with either dementia or Alzheimer's, from which my father died. I also have sleep apnea. Understanding that one's ADHD is not effectively addressed until the depression is first being addressed, my psychiatrist is prescribing 40 mg generic ADDERAL (E 401) x 2 in the morning and generic Ritalin 20mg in the afternoon, though I suspect at least 40mg would work better since Ritalin is not as strong as ADDERALL and even theoretically 20mg Ritalin is only 10 mg of ADDERALL. I also find myself having to financially start over again at 70, but Kentucky Fried Chickens 'Colonel did this at 65 and I a...

Please help me find adderall coupons for 20mg twice daily. There seems to be a limit on a lot of coupons when it says a month's 30 capsules. I really need help. Thank you ## Have you spoken to your doctor or pharmacist about getting the generic? If you're not on the time released, which I assume you aren't, since you are taking it twice daily, there is a generic available called Mixed Amphetamine Salts and it is much cheaper than the name brand product. As to the coupons, the only ones I have seen available are basically the same as the ones you have seen, they are limited to 30 capsules and really only give a discount at certain pharmacies that accept them. And, unfortunately, the manufactured has discontinued their assistance program for this medication, which used to help...

I have been on Adderall XR 20mg once a day and my dr wrote it for 10mg twice daily; yet the pharmacist filled regular generic adderall xr; I know this because I compared those with a photo from Barr! What should I do? ## I made an error; he filled generic adderall 10mg IR; Not XR as my Dr had written by Barr! ## Don't be alarmed, Adderall 20 mg and the generic version of Adderall 10 mg are the same. The only difference is the mg's. If you feel concerned I would phone your MD and ask he/she what you should do. Or you can even speak with your pharmacist if you can't phone your MD. ## In regards to IR and XR: IR simply means Instant Release, and XR means Extended Release. 20 mg of Adderall XR is supposed to last throughout the day. The 10 mg of Adderall IR is to help instantly ...

I just was prescribed to Adderall xr 20 mg and it made me feel horrible , I'm 15 years old and I tried to convince my mom that these give me headaches and I can't focus. She won't believe me and she said it because I'm not eating, I lost my appetite taking this drug and I know that it not just that , I know that this pill dosent work. Every single person who said something about this pill was always negative. ## For extra information They are generic version from CVS, blue capsule ## Hello, Noah! How are you? This medication is a stimulant, so it can cause headaches as a side effect, as reported by the FDA, as well as loss of appetite, nervousness and insomnia. It's also very common for you to experience such issues, when you're new to taking it, because your bod...

Tomorrow I should be filling a script for 30 mg Adderall IR tablets, but I am nervous about getting stuck with a subpar generic. What are the current generic manufacturers as of this month? My only option with my insurance is to fill at Rite Aid or CVS - which generic do they commonly carry? I appreciate your help! ## Spoke with corepharma this morning. They no longer manufacture amphetamine salts. Limited to Sandoz, barr/teva, and a few others now. I was just switched to Aurobindo. IT IS AWFUL. It feels narcotic, makes my add worse, and is inconsistent at best in strength. ## The worst are corepharma's bright pink round pills. CVS buys them at the cheapest rate. Mylan aren't bad with their peach round MA20, but most swear by Sandoz and Barr/teva. ## Being that we all react/resp...

For convenience I had my script for 30 mg Adderall filled @ target instead CVS. When I opened the bottle I immediately noticed it was physically different but was not concerned because Drug stores switch generics for several reasons such as cost and availability. After taking my first dose I noticed after 2-3 hrs. that I was not getting any noticeable or same response that I was accustomed to for my ADHD (combined) and depression! So I took a closer look at the pill and noticed it looked smaller and it had a #28 on it. This and the fact I was not getting the usual response (been taking for 20 yrs.) disturbed me enough to call Target to double check w/them to make sure that it might have been a mistake. Target said that they had switched recently but assured me it was the identical medic...

For those that feel their Teva brand generic Adderall by Actavis Elizabeth aren't working or making them feel sick, you're right. It is for the 30 mg, 20 mg, 10 mg & 5 mg.

I am currently without insurance and I had to pay $275 (cheapest I could find) for my GENERIC Adderall XR 20mg/60 count. I have read that Teva was the only one to produce the generic version for 180 days from the launch date, which was 4/2/09. My math indicates their 180 days will be up in two days (9/30/09) but I can't find out if any other companies are going to be producing the generic which should drive the price down significantly. Does anyone have any information about anyone else producing the generic Adderall XR 20 mg other than Teva/Barr? The generic name is Dextroamphetamine+amphetamine mixed salts, extended release. I cannot keep paying almost $300/mo for medication. I take it for narcolepsy and cannot function without it. So I am stuck between a rock and a hard place her...

I would like some input on Adderall 20 mg Instant Release. I have been through four manufacturers. I was on Activist and lots of people did not like it, however it worked for me. It had its fault but in the end it was recalled. Sometime during that period Teva bought out Activist. Since then I haven't been able to get an instant release to work without bad side effects. Then I was told there was a Name Brand being sold by Teva. I was able to get this with pill logo dp 20. I took only ten milligrams and my heart was racing out of control. I called the F D A and they advised me that the pill with imprint dp 20 was a generic. What I would like to know is how can it be Name Brand when through research shows after Shire discontinued AD 20 there was no other name brand. I have looked up N...

I am on adderall 20mg 4 times a,day for ADD and fatigue...adderall is generic and ir was curios if I ask shrink for an increase to 30mg 4 times a day or stick at 20 mg and add in ritalin 10mg xr 2 times a day sometimes I am falling asleep around 4pm and can't take an adderall or it will throw it all off in how many I have. ## Hello, Dave! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. Have you tried the time released Adderall XR? It may work better for you than the regular release. The FDA classifies this medication as a stimulant, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, weight loss and anorexia. Most doctors won't let you mix more than one medication in the same class, so ...

My name is Phil and I am 18 years old. I weigh 170 lbs and I am 6'3. At the beginning of my Freshman year of college I was diagnosed with ADHD and Social Anxiety Disorder. I currently take Adderall IR 10 mg (Barr Generic) once per day and Adderall XR 20 mg (Actavis Generic) once per day. I take Zoloft 100mg (American Health). My question is this: What are your experiences with the different generic brands? From what I have heard, for Adderall IR Sandoz/Eon has worked well with a lot of people, for Adderall XR Actavis (what I take) is really bad and I'd like to hear about Global and Barr, and I haven't researched Zoloft. Since I haven't tried any brands, I can't really compare these to anything. Here is the list of generics I have heard of (the asterisk means I'm ...

My pharmacy changed the generic brand to this company Mylan - M A20. I don't feel like it works as well as the oval pill I used to take. (Sorry I don't know what brand it was).
