Between 2006 and 2010 the Barr generic Adderall was overwhelmed with positive reviews on the Internet as the best generic Adderall IR.
Teva now manufactures both brand-name and generic Adderall. But if you notice, if you read the FDA’s Orange book, you will notice that even today, 2022, Barr pharmaceuticals still has a license to make Adderall.
It has always been my theory that Teva makes the brand name, and has an agreement with Barr to sell their product as the generic.
Would anyone know if Teva actually makes their generic Adderall IR - or is it that they distribute?
I switched to Teva 10mg because I heard good things about Teva. Well that was the last straw for me. I'm having my dr request brand Adderall because Teva did absolutely nothing for me. It was like eating a piece of candy. Dizzy spells, metallic taste in my mouth, gassy, irritable and no motivation or energy nor focus
You don't want brand Tevas they're WAY worse than generic. You've got to separate the active ingredient from the trash they're filling the rest of the pill with now and good luck figuring that one out as I'm not familiar at all with 10mg tablets.
Yes, Indeed I requested ( TEVA ) from my pharmacist. I could NOT do a double-blind study however I Was Able to be Objective by Proxy. My Decision was Predicated on 1) the ability to have 10-20 tabs From One Manufacturer & 2) A Script from [TEVA]. An opportunity was Afforded via an Empynea & 1 Month Hospitalization. I Brought My daily Meds w/ me b/c Experience Dictated Necessary Actions. Within 10 Days [Hospital] Dr.s Offer to order/dispense this med based on me handing over all Meds which will be secured w/ my Valuables... Both Parties Kept their Word. On Leaving the 2nd hospital ( Where Surgery & Drainage Tube ) were Performed, a 1 hr. Notice of Release b/c a Taxi is Waiting; 110+miles from home, 1/4" Tube snaked between ribs into lower R.Lung. I Exited w/ a Copy of Scripts, My Meds would be Mailed w/n 7 days.
My Nurse Awaited at my Residence, New Meds Awaited, She was Livid upon Learning what I freely Handed Over was a Non-Issue to Them, Notified My Prescriber, Meds {Including Adderall} arrived w/n 3 hrs. Of 65 I Received 17 (TEVA), SUN PHARM. I believe is the (Generic) When my Nurse Intervened, By the way, shortages of Teva = impetus of Exp. Mom chose 1 brand/d, Noted My Feedback,& her personal Observations. Please do NOT TRY ANY Of The Abovementioned, Dr.s will Listen, That's Why We ViSIT THEM> J.M.S.
