Bull....I have absolutely no control over my son and his prescription @ 18. Yes...he had to go on Ritilan like many others during the shortage. I have absolutley no reason to lie about something like that..come on!

Other manufacturers of Adderall or its generic versions continue to produce the drug, but there is not enough supply to meet the increased demand from patients during the pandemic.?So, alternatives like Ritalin have been higher in demand and have experienced some outages as well.

In October, the FDA announced a shortage of Adderall. Other ADHD drugs have followed, as patients switch to alternate medications such as Ritalin and Concerta.

My son took some adderall in school when someone offered him some. Then he played the game like countless others.
