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 salt combo.

The tricky thing about generic meds is that their potency (amount of active ingredients) can vary by as much as 25%...sometimes it turns out to be more, but in many cases it can be a lot less than what you're used to having.

I wish manufacturers would find a way to mark their generics with a more specific amount of active ingredients. 25% variability is sloppy in my opinion. The standard dose could potentially be a few milligrams off.

Hopefully this helps explain why it may not be working as well...

I am experiencing the same problem. I thought the pharmacy had mixed up my medications. I found your post when I was searching to see what they had given me. I am calling the pharmacy now to see if their have been more complaints and try to get them exchanged.

You want Teva or Barrs Laboratory. Both make generic adderall. They are peach colored oval tabs. My pharmacy is having a hard time getting them and gave me the white ones. Those make me tired and nauseated kind of like I'm coming down with a flu bug.
