I am frustrated!

My Psych doctor has prescribed Adrenal for a while now, up until about 3 months ago. Since then, I've had a hard time:
  1. getting prescribed Ritalin
  2. calling the med line and getting responses back
  3. not knowing what to do about all this
  4. i have my GP trying to help but it has been as slow process as with my shrink
  5. I cannot get her to write me a prescript so I can visit different pharmacies and see whhich one has available supplies
  6. Mark Cuban has a pharmacy outlet, but my shrink says she needs a physical address
  7. i am scatter brained and tired all the time
  8. my wife has a new condition and i have had to pitch in with the chores she helped our household with... I have been tired all the time, and have a hard time concentrating and getting motivated to take care of chores...

Any suggestions? Any alternative drugs that might be available at a low cost and or low copay?

Thank you in advance!

Have you tried Vyvanse? I take that for ADHD. I think there was only a shortage once and I've been on it a few years. It is newer than adderal and ritalin so I don't know if it would be low cost or low copay. Depends on your insurance. But might be worth looking into. Good luck. HUGS Kit

Look up Mark Cuban cost plus pharmacy. Full address is right there on the results page.

Hey guys! I just got my Strattera today! woo hoo!
I hope my PDOC prescribed the right dosage (40 mg) I told her it has been years since I took it... I also got a call from one of the other doctors at the facility and he set me up with the Mark Cuban pharmacy immediately (my current doc had said that she needed a physical address (she could've say she did not know how to do it! oh well. I requested a different therapist, that is who I'm going to see in a couple of months! another woo hoo!

I'm back to being a happy camper...
