Sandoz Adderall Reviews
(Newest replies first)

Sandoz is the best generic ir adderall I've used. August 11, 2017 I was told by the pharmacist they no longer produce this product. I asked if brand name was available and was told yes. When I received them I noticed they were made by Teva and let me tell you they are awful. I don't know what to do if I can't find a decent generic brand.

Does anyone know what pharmacies in Texas carry Sandoz Adderall? I'm located in Austin but will travel to San Antonio or DFW to find it.

I got them in December 2022 and they don’t make me feel bad but they don’t really make me feel anything. They look and feel exactly like the epic manufacturer that is weak AF

Re: Sandoz (# 106)

I know this is almost a year after you posted your question, but I can tell you that Walgreens and Walmart get them. They use the same distributor and then Rite Aid and CVS use the same distributor. So basically if you can’t get them at Rite Aid you can probably get them at Walgreens.

Re: Lakelife (# 108)

That’s why I stopped accepting Aurobindo adderall. I would rather go without because they made me physically ill and they didn’t help the ADHD.

Re: Stasia (# 110)

The name brand is made by Teva, Teva had a problem with running out of active ingredient like they all do every single year by the end of the year, but they also said they were having a problem with getting and keeping employees to pack the pills and ship them to pharmacies. They said back in November that they expect to be fully operational again by March. Of course they will probably run out of active ingredient in August or September like they always do, so I would try to stock up for next fall. But they should be back in action fully by March

Re: HCStymie (# 114)

Wait I thought they discontinued making Adderall. The FDA says they don’t make them anymore.

If you think people with narcolepsy need it more than people with ADHD you are ignorant. People who need psych meds need them just as much as people who have physical issues.

Re: Sleepy247 (# 116)

Thank you, I will, I also need to report the epic manufacturer because those are awful.

Do you remember Aurobindo adderall? OMG those were THE WORST. I had to have my doctor start writing do not dispense Aurobindo on all my prescriptions because I would accidentally get them and I would literally throw them away because they made me feel awful. But every time I think I feel them and I would get them I would report them. Now they don’t make them anymore. And I’m truly disgusted that the FDA let them continue making them as long as they did. You can go back and look at the actions FDA took (LOL) when they found their factories were dirty and disgusting. I don’t know that the constant medwatch reports helped, but eventually action was taken. So yeah we should keep doing it.

I know you made this a couple months ago. Walgreens and Walmart have been getting this brand lately. Last month when I was at Walgreens I got half Teva half Sandoz.

Re: Ree Ree (# 119)

I didn’t get the stomach pain from them but they don’t really work. I do like them better than the epic those are absolutely garbage.

I try to only take Teva, I think they should be back in full force by March was what they were saying a couple months ago

Re: Raquel (# 117)

I feel your pain. I used to take whatever generic amphetamine that was prescribed. When I moved and changed my pharmacy I was given Sandoz. All other generics suck. The reason people are having nausea, drowsiness, lethargy is because the other meds are basically a placebo. Basically taking these meds have very little bunk amphetamine in them. So they are not causing side effects. Rather a person is going withdrawals. Especially Teva. A person is better off with no medication at all in this situation. Been waiting nearly two months without medicine since the shortage. Have been offered to Alvogen, Teva, Epic and many others. They all absolutely are trash. Taking Sudafed in the mean time to help with withdrawals.

Hi. So pretty much I have been taking ADHD meds since 5, switched to Adderall when I was 11 and took the brand name until insurance no longer covered it. The only one that worked half way decent was Sandoz. Last month, they stopped filling the Sandoz order because of the shortage and have been supplying me with other MFR and they have giving me bizarre side effects and are barely effective. I am completely losing my mind without it and I can't even do my normal day to day.

Anyway, does anyone know roughly how long this will be? Is it kind of like a permanent thing?

Thank you in advance.

Those are the same to manufacturers that made the only IR generic adderall that worked for me, until Sandoz changed their formula this year and Corepharma was sold.

Since Sandoz changed the formula of their immediate release, generic adderall, it no longer works for me. I have narcolepsy and idiopathichypersomnia and need my medication to work. I URGE you to report it to the FDA ASAP.

We can't get these pharmaceutical companies to stop messing with our meds if we keep our heads down and keep the conversation among the general population - we need to make some noise!

For everyone experiencing the new IR Sandoz adderall formula not working, PLEASE report it to the FDA. "Voluntary reports are essential for ensuring the continued safety of FDA-regulated products. One or two well documented case reports may provide an early signal of unexpected problems and lead to additional evaluation. This may result in FDA regulatory actions that improve the safety of the products used in patient care each day."

Re: Smitty (# 109)

You can say that again! I have thought the same thing. The documentary The Pharmacist was about the opioid crisis.
I’ve taken this for many years, after my arguments against it. Although I had no clue what adderral even was! I finally agreed and found myself calling to thank my doctor for continuing to suggest it. I wouldn’t take anything because I didn’t want to feel different and zombied. When you have narcolepsy or an various reasons for a legitimate prescription, YOU NEED IT TO WORK! Especially after it does work because, then without it, the truth is you feel like someone or something else. Not even as you felt before you started taking it. It is literally hell on earth.
Trust me or don’t-whomever wants to argue…don’t! Sit down and shut up until you yourself have had the exact experience than any one of these valid people make. You cannot possibly begin to understand.
I am aware of the definition of addiction and call it what you want; IT IS NOT A CHOICE. It is a choice I personally argued against and suffered even longer because of it. If your body am does not produce certain chemicals or what it needs to function, your choice is to choose it and LIVE or you’re not a person at all.

Only someone who’s had the struggle can realize this.
And for pharmaceutical companies to have shortages or alter formulas on this or any other medication that is vital to function is beyond dangerous. My level of fury over chasing down Teva is insane. It isn’t the same. A lot of medications, you’d never know they difference. And some you do. It doesn’t surprise me, as I’ve always said they don’t care about a cure to anything that has a profit. I’m sorry, but it’s true. They are profiting so CAN WE JUST LIVE!

That U31 pill that was crap is Aurobindo / Aurolife. Took 140mg today (no exageration) and not as good as the 50 mg I would take on average of my regular brand

Re: Neil (# 111)

I'm currently trying the Teva brand this month. Imo they don't work quite as good as the Sandoz used to but they are close. And no unwanted side effects so that's a huge plus!
