I 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?

Good work filing a Medwatch report with the FDA. Everyone experiencing problems or differences needs to file a report!

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!!

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: juneblond (# 978)

I agree. I find Teva generic Adderall IR to be, by far, the most potent and efficacious.

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

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

What other manufacturers have you tried? Have you ever tried Adderall XR 30 mg by Par? If anyone has please post here.

Re: Charlie (# 970)

All the generics are absolute garbage compared to what they used to be. Its not even close! 30mg ir would last me almost all day back in 2011 now I took 6 years off and I took 30mg of the same brand and nothing at all. They changed all the ingredients to lower quality garbage to save a buck but turned these pills into something thats not doing what they are supposed to anymore. Its sad. I had to switch to Adderall xr so I could get the name brand and that's ok... I prefer IR but they do nothing! It's a waste

I don't see any reason to complain anymore. Has anything come of it in the years of complaining? Not that I've heard. Everyone knows the generics aren't any good, but nothing is done, I'm out!

I live in Chicago and have been on teva 30mg it adderall and they have never done me wrong. To be honest my family member gets 75. 20mg teva adderall ir and they are good too. I jus mix em with a benzo and my day is amazing. I don’t know what they are doing with recalls. It’s happened once in my life. I’ve been on adderall since 16. I’m 36.

The Teva recall affected only a very small amount of their total distribution.

If you are concerned, and you take the Teva brand, you can contact your pharmacy, and ask them if you were dispensed the “lot number” provided in the statement

Teva Adderall should still be available.

Re: James (# 974)

So the recall was the reason i couldn't get my normal teva brand adderall?
I am only on my first full day of having the Lannett pharmaceuticals 20mg adderall. I don't have an opinion on it yet
Even though I prefer the teva brand it's still nothing like it was in strength years ago. At first I thought it was only narcotics that so many pain patients are having to do without, it's not just pain medication it has to do with all the drugs that are controlled. The medacine lately is so weak it makes someone wonder what's in our meds.

Re: Charlie (# 972)

Regarding my previous post:

Citing the possibility bottles may contain tablets of mixed strengths, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA is voluntarily recalling 100-count bottles of dextroamphetamine saccharate, amphetamine aspartate, dextroamphetamine sulfate, and amphetamine sulfate tablets (mixed amphetamine salts product). The recall was included in the June 10, 2020, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Enforcement Report.

The following products, distributed throughout the United States and in Puerto Rico, were included in the recall:

5-mg dextroamphetamine saccharate, amphetamine aspartate, dextroamphetamine sulfate, and amphetamine sulfate tablets in 100-count bottles (NDC 0555-0971-02) from lot 42614718 (Exp. 2/21);

15-mg dextroamphetamine saccharate, amphetamine aspartate, dextroamphetamine sulfate, and amphetamine sulfate tablets in 100-count bottles (NDC 0555-0777-02) from lot 42617008 (Exp. 10/21); and

20-mg dextroamphetamine saccharate, amphetamine aspartate, dextroamphetamine sulfate, and amphetamine sulfate tablets in 100-count bottles (NDC 0555-0973-02) from lot 42617891 (Exp. 1/22).

Teva Pharmaceuticals initiated the recalls May 22, 2020. The FDA designated the recalls Class II on June 4, 2020, signaling use of the tablets could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences. A remote possibility of serious harm also exists.

I just picked up my adderall ir 20mg from Walgreens who usually have teva. Well i just looked at mine and they are a lighter shade of peach but the same shape and size. 2/0 (e). I never heard of them before. They are not sweet taste like teva and since it's later in the evening I only took one almost two hours ago and not much has happened other than I woke up a bit..the price was cheaper than teva the Lannett pharmaceuticals were $20. And change. My teva brand is around $34 for 60 20mg tab. Still I'd rather pay for my teva, i get it...they are not what they once were but still teva has been my choice for a generic!. Lets face it none of the generics are what they once were, i read pain management patients who say they think pain pills are not what they once were either, i believe if a medication is a narcotic drug they are not as potent as they once were!..

I just picked up my adderall IR 20mg from Walgreens like usual and the first thing I noticed was the color. So i looked at the bottle for the name of the generic. It's from Lannett pharmaceuticals, i never heard of this generic version so?. Ok so the color is a lighter shade of peach and the same size and shape of teva..it says 2/0(e). However it doesn't have that sweet taste, its more chalky. Its later in the evening time so i only took one two hours ago and not much has happened granted I was lazy feeling and now im more awake so i will update soon. I just jumped off Google and did a search for opinions and I read a few people wrote that this was a very good generic by Lannett pharmaceuticals. I will wait and see for myself. The price was cheaper than teva the price of $20.68 for 60 tables of 20mg ir..

Generic drug variances can be max 20% higher or lower than brand. I take a Teva drug that works great for me. It is a matter of finding what generic works for you. Then you can request from pharmacy
