Not True: All of us doctors are very happy to report to the fda when patients have problems like this and we are very successful in getting them stopped.

It is true: They byt the chapeast alternative.There are 2 things you can do:
1 ask your physician if he can prescribe 3 months at a time (he will have to write code b if it is a chronic condition like adhd.And use a manhattan pharmacy(or not l.I)
2. Ask your physician to try to obtain a prior authorization for the brand name.
These might be available options depending on your particular case and your md.
