A bottle of generic Adderall is arranged in this undated stock photo., suppliers are warning that those shortfalls could continue throughout the year -- a source of frustration amid increased demand and diagnoses.
Suppliers are echoing demand issues, with Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, a division of Novartis, telling ABC News they expect the product to remain in tight supply for the entirety of 2023.
Alvogen and Teva have reported to the FDA that demand increases are behind the shortages, while Epic Pharma and US Pharma Windlas have reported a shortage of the active ingredient. While people of all ages are affected by the shortage, school-age children and families are especially feeling the constraints.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends medication, in combination with parent training in behavior management and behavioral classroom interventions for those in a classroom setting for children and adolescents ages 6-18 with an ADHD diagnosis.
