    My ADHD meds are on backorder. I have 4 doses left and no clue about when the pharmacy will get them in. I call my pharmacy every day and they have no clue when they’ll be in.

      If you are in the US, try Costco pharmacy. They have been a godsend during the shortage in my area.

        There aren’t any cotscos near me. I live in a very rural area. I may see if my pharmacy can send the script somewhere that does have the medication. They do that sometimes, but only if it isn’t a shortage in our entire area. :/

          I think Costco has a shipping service, though certain medications can’t be shipped. I’d give them a call, and see if they can get meds to your area.

          That really sucks, I’m sorry. This shortage is terrible.

            I’m just hoping it ends soon. Every other stimulant other than the one I am on messes with my heart condition. :(

      Call your doc, maybe they can look for an alternative. Last time the pharmacy was out of my dosage but they had the smaller dosage which is better than nothing.

      If it’s possible in your area, I’ve had an easier time dealing with an independent pharmacy than with any of the big chains.

      I go to a small pharmacy that is located inside a larger hospital. They have more limited hours than the big chains but they’ve always had my meds and been easy to get info from over the phone.

      I’ve had lots of shit experiences with CVS/Walgreens/Costco
