I hope it comes to market soon. I'm running low and having a hard time finding a refill.

A friend who is a tech at a Costco pharmacy told me yesterday that they are expecting a shipment of the generic to arrive today. While my pharmacy has no ETA on the name brand and does not have access to the generic from their distributors as far as I have been able to surmise.

I know the pharmacy I'm currently trying to get it filled at originally tried to fill the generic but didn't have it. (Obviously this was yesterday) and the issue was they weren't sure if my insurance would pay for name brand... I had to explain that it was okay to bill for name brand.

I haven't been able to find any since mid July. Literally every pharmacy is out. Even the independents. Fucking ridiculous. At least I have an old stash Adderall to keep me semi functional.
