I have been out for a week. My cvs is out and says that all stores in a 20 mile radius are also out. I called Walgreens, same deal. He said they’ve been out for two weeks and don’t know when they’ll have it again.
I’ve been on adhd meds since 1993 without an issue, and now that I just started a challenging new job and grad school I can’t get my meds. Not cool. |

You're just going to have to keep calling around daily if necessary. It sucks but there really is no other way.
You can also see if they have lower doses. One of my kids gets 20mg which seems to be the hardest to find. One month I couldn't find 20 anywhere but was able to find 10. The Dr was able to call in a prescription for 10 mg. It's a PITA to have to do this each month. I thought the shortage was supposed to get better after the beginning of the year. I guess not. |

PP. I called 6 CVS stores on Monday and they were out. I called back today and was able to find it in one. You just have to keep calling.

| Call a local pharmacy like Brookville. When CVS was out last month, Brookville had it. CVS also recommended Rodmans pharmacy - but I did not get around to calling them. |
| Try costco |
| If I tell you, I won’t be able to find mine. It’s lord of the flies out there, sorry. |
| Can you get generic? |
This. DH spent an afternoon calling all over the place, nobody had 20mg but finally one independent pharmacy volunteered the info that they had 25mg. Decided to try that. DD says it's fine but she prefers the 20mg. Time for a refill again so we'll be back to calling around and now know to ask about varying doses -- 10mg or 20mg or 25 mg. Such a PITA. |
| See if your insurance has an online delivery option. |
Generic is what’s out. My insurance just quit covering name brand, which was a little easier to get. I’d pay out of pocket if I found it though |
Op here. My insurance company is CVS Caremark, so I’m kinda screwed |
You wanna come write these two papers for me? Lol |
They're both out. My insurance covers both and I still have a hard time finding either. |
I blame tik tok for convincing everyone they have adhd |
Why should that be a problem though? Supply and demand... if more people are on it, more will be manufactured, right? |
