That only makes sense for drugs that don't have a generic counterpart, such as Adderol, which is very difficult to find right now.


Adderal doesn't have a generic? My dc was on it for awhile and it was a generic, I believe.


I meant that Adderol does have a generic, but I think some others don't. We were only able to find the generic and that was hard to find.

OP - try Bradley Drugs, or Bradly Care on Arlington Blvd near Bruce Variety.

I know Adderall has a generic for extended release as my DC is on that medication.

The generic manufacturers hit their quota in September and some places had inventory to keep in going a while longer.
