Got the dreaded backorder text for concerta 27 two weeks ago. No change. Talked to my prescriber who called in Ritalin 30 LA today. It's backordered also.

Six tabs left and it's time to start the pharmacy phone tag game. Win and you get meds before you run out. Lose and you're out of meds, losing the executive function required to find your meds 😎🤙

It's been two years now how is this still a thing

    Risky buy unless you know the seller and that they got it from a pharmacy. There's a ton of counterfeit Adderall out there, and it's always meth. Even the XR gelcaps are counterfeit now.

    Meth isn't a terrible substitute, but it's not going to be dosed correctly or even the same dose pill to pill. It has a much longer half-life.

    Ritalin is probably safer because it's less controlled in other countries, so it might be cheaper to import the real stuff than press fakes.
