The past 12 months have been the worst I've ever seen in terms of the supply of generic ADHD medication (both instant and extended) for my patients. I've never seen things this sparse in my 15 years or so.  The problem is highlighted in this article, and presented further in the physician-led video. Further below, I created a longer video about the problem, offering my own ideas about WHY these medications have been so hard to find, and some solutions/alternatives that doctors and patients can think about trying. I know it's been very hard on patients to find what they are prescribed. And it's been equally tough on providers to constantly prescribe and re-prescribe to different pharmacies, depending on which one has it in stock at the time. It's been very frustrating for everyone!
