I've been having pretty good luck the past couple months (knock on wood). I think it has depended on what dose you were on. IIRC there is the 'regular' shortage of raw ingredients that affects everything, but there was also a shortage on top of that for specifically 60 & 70 mg pills. Though it looks like the manufacturers are just reporting the former now: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/drugshortages/dsp_ActiveIngredientDetails.cfm?AI=Lisdexamfetamine%20Dimesylate%20Capsule&st=c
I met my out of pocket for the year. So I had the pharmacy fill it with brand. I'll do that again this month and then I'll figure shizzz out!
Nice, hopefully the manufacturing will get all sorted out by a fresh year. 🤞
Yea here's hoping!
My insurance will only cover the generic. There is only one pharmacy in a 40 minute radius that carries the genetic, and only sometimes. Fun.
That sucks bud!
Just got the generic filled without issue in Ohio. Maybe just regional to you?
Might be. I'm just north of Philly. Who knows!
