I had my ADHD meds go on back order for more than three weeks. I ended up having my doctor switch me to a different med because I straight up couldn't find the previous one. She sent in that script same day. Then I got a text from the pharmacy saying it was on backorder lol.

Pharmacy tech here, and yeah, this poo poo's a daily occurrence. ADHD meds have had a supply problem since this time last year and it fuckin' sucks. Manufacturers aren't producing enough to meet demand, so everybody gets to switch to different medications that then also quickly run out of stock. Vyvanse is unavailable? Great, your doctor switched you to Concerta. Oh poo poo, that's unavailable too? How about Adderall? Oops, it's gone. Time to switch back to Vyvanse. Oh, gently caress, that's gone again.

We completely understand how hosed up the situation is, but truth of the matter is that pharmacies have gently caress-all to do with the situation; it's entirely the manufacturers. Thanks to them, we get to get screamed at while we suggest your doctor switches your meds for the umpteenth time or send you on a fruitless search for the one bottle of Lisdexamphetamine that was produced this month.
