Hi Carebear
Thanks for the update! I normally get a 3 month RX because I get better insurance coverage with the mail-in pharmacy; however, I might try asking my doctor for a trial RX of the generic Adderall to fill at the local pharmacy. Unfortunately, if it is less effective, I will probably fork-over the extra $ for the brand-name. (I am already prescribed a high dosage of the med, otherwise it would be feasible to switch to generic and simply bump-up the mg to compensate for any loss in effect.) Ugh, I really wish that the FDA had a more stringent policy on the "quality" of generic vs. brand name meds...Then we wouldn't have to worry about which is more effective! (And you wouldn't have to go through he** trying to find a pharmacy that will order brand-name drugs!)
Thanks again for your help!!
