Adderall Manufactured By Teva Not Working (Page 50)
UpdatedI have had two refills of Adderall 20 mg that was manufactured by Teva/barr (Teva) and it seems to have much less medication in each pill. Refills by another manufacturer work. This is ridiculous, and where do we report Teva and who can check each pill for amount for medication? I would gladly donate some of my worthless ones to the FDA?
Re: Petros Poulos (# 936)
Have you found one that worked? You sound just like me...trying Vyvanse ????
Look on the pill at the number wallgreens has started using lannett pharmacy over teva, you have to go in and ask for the teva brand instead. As of July 2020
I just picked up my 20 mg adderall three days ago from Walgreens ( they are orange oval pills) for whatever reason, they are making me super sleepy, and I don't feel like they are helping me concentrate at all. It's actually doing the opposite. Has anyone else had this experience? This formula is most definitely not what I've had for the past ten years! This sucks
Re: juneblond (# 978)
I agree. I find Teva generic Adderall IR to be, by far, the most potent and efficacious.
Re: sadies (# 982)
Thank you
The problem I’ve had is that I tried 3 different generics (including Teva) as well as brand name Adderall IR (now also made by Teva) and have not had great results. So when SarahAda says the formula is different, I agree. I compared the inactive ingredients in the different manufacturers and of course they’re different. It absolutely effects me. Unfortunately the one that WAS effective for me has been discontinued : / I just reduced the dose as the side effects were not worth it. I was only taking 10 mg to begin with! #annoyed. I filed a bs complaint with the FDA.
Re: Ks (# 983)
I don’t know the name of the company that makes what u have but I got 2 scripts for Adderall XR made by Par Pharmaceuticals and they are horrible. I’m tired, really dragging & retching all day until it’s worn off! Stay far away from this one!!
Re: Shelly (# 986)
Good work filing a Medwatch report with the FDA. Everyone experiencing problems or differences needs to file a report!
TEVA Adderall ONLY!!!!! (Orange oval football shape)...The absolute best ingredient. I’ve taken Adderall for over 25 years. I consider myself an expert in knowing variations of different Adderall.......DO NOT let any physician or pharmacist tell you the lie that “all Adderall is the same”...because it is NOT! There is only one adderall made of good quality which is made in Israel by TEVA Pharmaceuticals. The rest of the junk like Alvogen, Lannett, Sun Pharmaceuticals are all made with low grade generic fillers from China and a India. Refuse this junk fillers. Demand your rights!!!
You have the legal right to refuse junk from Asia and demand TEVA and if your pharmacy is out it’s because it’s the best! Take your script to a pharmacy or call around to your local pharmacies to find out who sells TEVA. Until recently Walmart had the TEVA contract but they lost it trying to save a penny. However, Walgreens now has it and maybe some other local pharmacies. It’s worth waiting for TEVA as there are no comparisons between TEVA and the low quality of these other off brands and many thousands of patients have written these companies complaining. Write the FDA a complaint was well because the junk from China does not work.. Need more proof?? Refer to the thousands upon thousands of complaints on Reddit about how TEVA is the only Adderall that works. It will blow your mind. My advice is do not accept the crap from China and India. If it does come from Europe/Israel leave it with the pharmacist and find you a new pharmacist.
Alvogen and other generics make me sick because it taste like what I assume rat poison would taste like, accept TEVA Only. It’s in big demand for one reason because it works! No, I do not work for TEVA and have no connection with the company. This is my tried and true opinion over a 25 year period... I’m just sick and tired of these lying physicians and pharmacist telling me “they are all the same”. Hell no they not! If they were then we would only need one name brand, right? Demand TEVA Adderall as it makes all the difference trust me. It’s worth your time to locate a pharmacist in your area that offers this quality drug. Google the TEVA difference and read the complaints for yourself.
I think you got ripped off as TEVA is the worlds best quality Adderall made hands down, so you may have gotten some fake ones imported from China.
Re: DrMerritt (# 990)
I think TEVA is the best bet. The problem is since they took over from Shire, it appears not to be the same. I went through many generics and finally got name brand only approved. I had many side effects and ultimately had to reduce the dose. These inconsistencies cause major problems and it's unfortunate.
Re: Juneblond (# 953)
They are still made i get them every month....you have to go to a mom and pop and ask for them to order it.
Re: Jrizzle (# 992)
While they (Teva Adderall 20MH IR) seemed to be working, this month (November)
and last month I noticed much less efficacy,
Also, the tablets actually appeared -slightly- smaller in size, and I also noticed
that the “sweet like sugar” flavor isn’t as pronounced...almost as if they took it out
Anyone notice these two changes?
Re: James (# 993)
Please go to the FDA website and fill out a Medwatch report and also tell the pharmacy. They can't keep making medications like this.
Re: Truth (# 994)
I agree.
Everyone taking Teva Generic Adderall IR to take about 5min by going to the FDA’s official website and reporting your reactions
Re: Dr Merritt (# 989)
What you don’t know is Teva doesn’t actually make the drug; it is Duramed Pharmaceuticals
I agree that the efficacy of generic Teva Adderall has changed for the worse, and these changes should be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch, a form you complete to report the symptoms you are experiencing to the FDA.
The more reports received, the more proactive the FDA will be
I have narcolepsy and this generic adderall tablets - oval peach with b/974 on one side and 30 on other side do not work at all for me. Matter of fact I fall right asleep on them and this is very dangerous for me as I have to drive and I have had to pull over several times. On time, I ended up in someone's front yard. I'm glad other people notice this because I need to know what can be done about Teva. I'm afraid I'm going to get hurt or maybe hurt someone because of my narcolepsy and these pills don't work at all. What does work? I've had adderall for along time and this is the first time they act like sleeping pills.
Re: Jesse (# 997)
Please fill out a MedWatch form on the FDA website! We all need to fill out the form and speak up. This is a serious issue that needs to be addressed!!! F***ing finally I am hearing someone with narcolepsy talk about how fake these pills are. It is not imagined, this garbage medicine is not okay!!
Sorry to say this but you adderall patients are experiencing exactly what lorazepam users are going through. Teva bought lorazepam from actavis, it was just a matter of time. Teva only responds to their shareholders. I have been on 1 mg of lorazepam for over 25 years, and for most of those years i stuck with 1 company, actavis. Unfortunately every time actavis was sold the new company waters down the old companies product making it worthless. I have listed comment after comment in the lorazepam forum letting people know to first contact the fda, in most cases they are worthless but at some point a legal team will get involved and people who have been abused by big pharma will also be able to go after the fda
Re: joe (# 999)
Wanted to give a quick update. Teva was unavailable for a couple of months at my pharmacy. I was given Northstar (I actually liked) and Alvogen (Made me feel I had OD'ed on caffeine) for those 2 months Teva was out of stock. This refill they had Teva back and I can say this med has absolutely no effect on me and does not help me function as an Adderall should. I will be filing a med report. I urge everyone to do the same or the chances of correction are slim to none.
