2018 Adderall changes and updates regarding:
1) Name Changes to be aware of 2) Corepharma back under a new name Epic Pharma LLC with different tablet imprints and strengths 3) Two new generic forms of Adderall 4) List of available generic forms of Addrall 5) List of Adderall XR options 6) Other forms of Adderall XR (liquid and disintegrating tablet) (Additional information can be found in the links provided. Many more details such as NDC codes, inactive ingredients, tablet descriptions, company info and etc) This is the main page / link for more information: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...ize=100&page=1 **Name changes as well as the NDC codes are especially important when requesting a pharmacy to special order a certain generic form of adderall. If you have the correct NDC code then it is easier to see if the pharmacy can order it for you.** 1) NAME CHANGES (Changes to be aware of especially if you like or dislike a certain generic form of Adderall IR Tablets) In Summary: Aurobindo / Aurolife new name: Acetris Health LLC Mallinckrodt new name SpecGX LLC Sun Pharma / Sun Pharmaceutical new name Northstar LLC NAME CHANGES W/ LINKS: “Acetris Health LLC” better known as Aurobindo and Aurolife :The products are exactly the same (same imprint, tablet sizes and inactive ingredient lists) but have different NDC codes. Yes these are still the same round tablets with the “U” on them. Acetris https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...6-7e08cb7b65ff Aurobindo https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...5-585b2d8a0e3e “SpecGX LLC” better known as Mallinckrodt. These are still the same white stop sign tablets with an “M” on them. SpecGx / Mallinckrodt https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...9-003189a353a3 “Northstar LLC” better known as Sun Pharmaceutical Industries and Sun Pharma. These are the same products but have different NDC codes. Northstar https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...d-d82edcc14a0c Sun Pharmaceutical https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...2-647cbfacd296 *** Be sure to check the link to locate the specific generic company and NDC code for the proper strength of medication when requesting a special order with your pharmacy.*** 2) EPIC PHARMA LLC COREPHARMA ADDERALL IS NOW MANUFACTURED AND DISTRIBUTED BY “EPIC PHARMA LLC” as of August 17, 2018. Epic Pharma LLC now manufactures and distributes this form of adderall. The inactive ingredients, tablet colors, and tablet sizes listed are still the same, but the tablet markings are different. However, they are only making this in three strengths: 5mg, 15mg, and 30mg Here is the link: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...d-fdc77f69008f 3) TWO NEW FORMS OF GENERIC ADDERALL IR TABLETS “Zydus Pharmaceuticals / Nesher Pharmaceuticals” This company was updated and listed late last year November 2017 but I have not heard of it being available anywhere yet https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...d-af593b4a3a43 Alvogen Inc/ Norwich Pharmaceuticals This company was also listed last year in August 2017 and I have not heard of it being available yet either https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...9-fed14f94549f 4) CURRENT LIST OF EXISTING AVAILABLE GENERIC ADDERALL IR TABLETS: Aurobindo / Aurolife / Acetris Mallinckrodt / SpecGx LLC Teva / Barr Sun Pharma / Sun Pharmaceutical / Northstar LLC Sandoz / Eon Mylan Hopefully Soon to be available: Epic Pharma LLC (formerly Corepharma) Zydus / Nesher Alvogen / Norwich 5) ADDERALL XR OPTIONS STILL PRETTY MUCH THE SAME: Brand name Shire still makes the original Adderall XR along with its longer acting version “Mydayis” and the triple bead technology.. Shire is still making the authrorized generics for the following three companies which is distributed under the name of said company: Sandoz Global Prasco (this version had a bad run of batches last year and was well documented on numerous other boards aside this one. Hopefully as of 2018 this has since been corrected) An authorized generic is identical and supposed to be the exact same formulation as the brand, but simply distributed under a different pharmaceutical name for less cost. Therefore Sandoz, Global, and Prasco XR are supposed to be the exact same thing as brand name shire without the added cost. Links attached and you can view the box and inactive ingredients For your reference: Shire Adderall XR https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...f-c7081512a6c0 Sandoz https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...c-3250c51aed77 Global https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...c-440769fff99a Prasco https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...a-6dbb8642952c There are two other forms of Adderall XR that are truly different generic formulations and those are: Impax https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...8-1619c2ba8591 Teva / Actavis https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...3-2e41fd8f06c2 Enough people have commented on how these two different generic XR formulations affect them as opposed to the brand name and authorized generics. 6) Lastly, the other forms of Adderall in an extended release formulation as a liquid and a disintegrating tablet are: Adzenys ER (an extnded release formula in a liquid suspension) https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...5-4fd872129713 Adzenys XR - ODT (A disintegrating tablet) https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailyme...d-31e614e99b7e Good Luck and I hope you find a form of Adderall that works well for you! |

The best way is to give them a call. They are a small company based in NY and remember you have a 3 hour time difference. As small as they are it makes me wonder how readily available their generic adderall will be throughout the country.... I might give them a call at some point too. Here is the customer service phone number: Sales, Customer Service & Drug Information / Adverse Reactions: Phone: 1-888-374-2791 / 1-888-EPIC-RX1 Phone: (718) 276-8600 Here is a link: http://www.epic-pharma.com/page4.html Let us know what you find out. |

Re: Very Important - Adderall IR changes for 2018, Adderall XR info and Corepharma up
Black Warrior, here is some more info for you.
A link to the product page: http://www.epic-pharma.com/index.html A link to the generic adderall which they list as Dextroamphetamine Saccharate Product page for Dextroamphetamine Saccharate: http://www.epic-pharma.com/dextroamphetamine.html The bottles list the NDC codes as well. Remember, they are only manufacturing the 5mg, 15mg, and 30mg tablet sizes. So if you are taking a different amount you may need your prescriber to adjust your script. |

Re: Very Important - Adderall IR changes for 2018, Adderall XR info and Corepharma up
After years of taking only the name brand Adderall XR, I tried the Sandoz generic a few months ago and it was like I wasn't even on any meds. I don't know how that can be if Shire is making the generic. Is it the same formulation as Adderall XR or a special, slightly different formulation for the generic?

Re: Very Important - Adderall IR changes for 2018, Adderall XR info and Corepharma up
I'm low key freaking out right now that Epic Pharma is finally out. If anyone has a lead as to which Pharmacy is buying them please let us know! I live in WA St. and have been patiently waiting month by month for them to be released since the last time I was able to get the remainder of the Corepharma supply at my local Costco I would say maybe October of last year? I'm not sure but it's been too long. I just picked up my script today and they're for 20 mil instants, i've been getting Mallincrodt which is slightly better than Teva/Aurbindo but they're all bottom shelf compared to Corepharma on effectiveness. I'll have to call around and see if any pharmacy in the area has this if so I'll ask my Dr. to adjust my prescription but if anyone has any leads please post!

You are not alone in thinking the "authorized generic" by Shire made for distribution through Sandoz did not work as well as it should.... Last year myself and several others had problems with the Prasco "authorized generic" made by Shire. If you visit and research the links provided you will find the inactive ingredients listed are supposed to be identical to brand name Shire. However I personally believe Shire plays games with their authorized generics... but that's just me.... That said, the only way for you to be sure you get the medication you need is to stick to what works. If the authorized generics are not working for you stick to the brand name. My previous doctor always told me to stick to what works and don't ever change it unless you have to..... The only other thought I have is this: Did you take anything new or different that month you were on the Sandoz?.... and i mean anything. I hope you find resolution and find what you need to get back on top of your game. Sometimes different forms of adderall can throw us a curveball..... |

This is what I can tell you pursuant to my last conversation with Epic Pharma: They sell to all Wholesalers such as; Cardinal, McKesson, AmerisourceBergen, and etc... However, for legal purposes she could not confirm or verify who or which entity has or had purchased the generic adderall they manufacture. What you have to do is take the NDC codes (provided in the previous links) and ask your pharmacies to run those codes to check and see if it shows up as available in their systems. In Arizona I had Costco and CVS run the codes and it was not available. I have not tried Walgreens, Walmart or Rite aid yet. Distribution will be regional so you have to check on your own for availability. Good luck....because you will need it in order to find the Epic Pharma Adderall.... It will take persistence and patience to find it. |

My local pharmacy uses Cardinal (and only Cardinal - so I'm in luck), however, when my pharmacist input the NDC code into their system nothing was available. Also, she called their representative from Cardinal and asked about it and they said they don't have it yet or its not ready for distribution if its not in the system. I do not know what the miscommunication is between what Epic told me and what Cardinal is showing in their system, but it might be a delay while it goes through their supply chain - Cardinal is a huge company (very disorganized also, I called many different numbers on their site and was forwarded to many different people who were of no help). I do know that Cardinal is the only wholesaler they are using - Epic is not distributing to any others they said, so if your pharmacy does not use them you should make some calls to different pharmacies to find one in your area who does when the time does come. My local Walgreens and CVS both do not use Cardinal, however this can change from region to region (one of them specifically said they do not do business with Cardinal at all, I believe it was Walgreens). One rep from Cardinal I talked to informed me most CVS and Rite aids are able to order from them. I hope this helps - if anyone else has any info please share. I do not refill again until the end of the month so it will be a week or so before I attempt tracking it down again. |

Has anyone been able to get Sandoz ir since like March? My pharmacy has said the company has not been able to make it for this long.
