Suppliers are having trouble meeting demands.
I don’t know the exact reason for adderall, but I noticed it happened after the mislabeling of adderall 15mg generic. 20mg was produced with a 15mg label on it. That was pulled from market and then began a slow cascade of people switching to different manufacturers/strengths resulting in a shortage. Again, this is from my observation. The FDA’s website has more on this.
For the diabetic auto injectors, ozempic being used for its non-FDA indication of weight loss resulted in a shortage resulting in a cascade of events like patients switching to different strengths or trulicity, mounjaro, etc. Now all the manufacturers are having trouble keeping up with demand.

Yes, but the liquid stock comes and goes. For the most part they have been on back order for a few weeks.
Is compounding antibiotics from tablet to liquid a common thing in retail pharmacies in Germany?

I checked my supplier two days ago and the only available strength for amoxicillin suspension was 400 mg/5 ml with a quantity of 6 to supply any contracted pharmacy in Nevada and possibly Arizona. I had to order 3. 🤦♂️
I hope supply meets demand soon. Everything is being affected: adderall, antibiotics, antivirals, diabetic auto injectors.

What’s the age of the person?
100mg is a bit high. Even for someone with tolerance. I personally have never seen a prescription for Norco 10-325 to be taken 10 pills at a time.
But two major concerns present itself:
