Well, yes and no, jour, in one of my links concerning the shortage the DEA guy said they were not thinking about raising the quota,yet, maybe could be, not on the table just yet,
it was about as wishy washy as you can get, there could be pressures from the higher ups. The men in suits. We're not done yet.

The Wall Street Journal reported today that even though the FDA only announced the shortage this week, "manufacturers and retailers have been signaling for months" that it was becoming harder and harder to fill Adderall prescriptions. Bloomberg reported in early August that "packaging capacity constraints" at a Teva factory were causing Adderall supply disruptions. Last month, NPR reported that a "labor shortage" was the culprit.

Despite the shortage, the DEA has indicated that it does not intend to raise the limit next year.
