Anyway, I would imagine the risk that you might end up with a substandard product would be a too high.
I have found that the round generic adderral was imo totally bunk. I try to get the oval shaped ones. I think a generic is supposed to be 80% of the chemical makeup of the non-generic. I've also read that generic blood pressure pills from India were full of harmful additives. I think the FDA standards of pharmacutical factories in India & China are not stringent.
