Anyone fill barr-teva lately?
Been on aderrall for 5 years. After the first of the year,my first barr script made me feel very weak,and tired. Tried the pink corepharmas,gave me headaches,sandoz made my heart race like crazy.
There were a few posters who mentioned they seemed weaker as of late,i havent filled a barr script since february,any input would be appreciated,hopinh maybe it was a bad batch or something. thxx |

Re: Anyone fill barr-teva lately?
I filled a 15mg IR Barr script last month and CorePharma this month - HATE the CorePharma after the Barr. Unfortunately, I don't have previous experience with any of them as the Barr fill in April was my first time on Adderall, so I'm afraid I'm probably not much help.

Re: Anyone fill barr-teva lately?
I have been taking barr/teva for a good 5 years now. I've also tried core and sandoz. Sandoz actually effected my attention in a positive way but it gave me no motivation plus it's almost impossible to find at a pharmacy. I decided to stick with Barr even though it does seem inconsistent, it is always available over the the other brands at the pharmacy.
My guess is always keep them in your home in a normal and consistent temperature. I left them in my hot car last summer and it seems as if it made the adderall completely not work. Same thing in the winter. Hopefully this information helps. Last edited by scatteredboy; 05-22-12 at 11:07 PM.. Reason: grammar mistake |

Who cares what brand you get? Adderall 5mg is the same regardless according to the FDA. Ya'll up on some interdose placebo effects.

Generics have liberty with the formulas and are given a percentage lee-way as to how much active is in it and how much filler is used i.e. Barr uses Glucose and Saccahrine fillers which are not exactly what ADHD folks need to be throwing in their brains repeatedly (why I will NEVER use Barr ANYTHING EVER again).whereas Sandoz does not use those |

Corpharma uses Lactose as a binder. I am allergic to lactose, these make me sick.

To my understanding, Placebo affect usually refers to someone taking something and having it be the best thing in the world when it was nothing more than a sugar pill? ( i could be wrong) Shire is the only company I know that makes all of its own adderall xr. When you get the brand,global,teva etc its all from shire. The IR's are a different story. Those can be made individually by each generic company. People like to use the "its just a placebo" defense here sometimes but if 80% of the people on this board, and across the world notice a difference in manufacturers of medications that are supposed to be the same then I guess we are all victims of mass hysteria.

Re: Anyone fill barr-teva lately?
You are correct Sarah, the placebo affect is the observable or felt improvement in health or behavior not attributable to a medication or treatment that has been administered. The Latin meaning of PLACEBO is "I shall please" which indicates that it is to refer to a positive experience associate with an inert substance or a fake procedure.
The FDA does allow a small percentage of variance in amount of active ingredient, I do not think that it is as high as 20% though. I do know for certain there are no regulations on the inactive ingredients. To be clear the "inactive ingredients" still could have affects on the performance of the drug in some people, but in general if the FDA approves a generic it works as close to the name brand drug as possible in the majority of people taking it. The FDA does not seem to actually have a set standard of allowance of any discrepancy that I can find in research on this topic today, however studies have been done comparing the absorption of generics vs name brand drugs and have identified a 3.5% fluctuation in the absorption between them. [SOURCE: Davit et al. Comparing generic and innovator drugs: a review of 12 years of bioequivalence data from the United States Food and Drug Administration. Ann Pharmacother. 2009;43(10):1583-97.] Below are some info I found searching the FDA website: Quote:

I feel this is important becuase there are a lot of Amphetamine salt drugs that ADHD patients receive, I think that we need to do additional research to see if these are all listed as official generics of adderall. This could be difficult becuase the document I quoted below indicates that drugs are sometimes mislabled as generics in databases so that insurance will pick up the cost under the coverage of generics.

Re: Anyone fill barr-teva lately?
There is an FDA resource that maintains lists of all approved generic drugs and call it 'the orange book' and can tell us if various tablets sold as 'amphetamine salts' are approved generics to adderall. Below are my findings when searching for FDA approved generics to adderall:
Quote:
I bolded the RLD(Reference Listed Drug) in the above examples because this seems very important. The definition of this is in quotes below. This would seem to indicate that only one of the above listed results is actually a recognized Generic of adderall and all others in the list are all brand name since they lack an RLD. All other drugs containing a mix of amphetamine salts that are not listed are not FDA Approved as actual generics for adderall and are being sold as 'amphetamine salts' and are not necessarily equivalent to adderall in its absorption and effectiveness. This seems to indicate that ONLY BARR produced 'amphetamine salts' is approved to be called ADDERALL GENERIC. This could finally explain why there is so much debate surrounding which manufacturers 'generic' is the closest to name brand adderall. I may be interpreting this wrong so by all means if anyone can weigh in on this I think it will help the discussion. Quote:
TL;DR = ONLY BARR is producing approved generics for branded adderall.
