Here’s the bottom line

Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) tablets are in a shortage that has lasted over a year, driven by ingredient supply problems and rising demand. Some manufacturers still report available supply across multiple strengths, and other makers not reporting a shortage also list this medicine.

Don’t stop or change your therapy on your own — ask your pharmacist about other manufacturers (see options) and your prescriber about a long-term plan.

These rows are manufacturer reports to the FDA for Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet — they do not necessarily cover every manufacturer that makes this drug. A company appears here only if it told the FDA it has a supply problem, so other makers may still have stock. That’s the basis for the Where else can I get Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet? options further down this page.

Why is Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet in shortage?

This mixed amphetamine salt tablet — commonly known by the brand name Adderall — is on the FDA shortage list for a couple of reasons. For some manufacturers reporting to the FDA, there simply aren't enough of the raw active ingredients available to make the medication. For others, the demand has grown faster than their supply can keep up with — meaning more people need this medication than usual. Both of these issues are happening at the same time, which is what's driving the ongoing shortage.

Here's a quick look at where things stand by manufacturer in this report:

  • Granules Pharmaceuticals has all of their strengths (1.25 mg through 7.5 mg) currently unavailable due to the active ingredient shortage, with an estimated recovery of October 2026.
  • Epic Pharma has their 1.25 mg, 2.5 mg, 3.75 mg, 5 mg, and 7.5 mg strengths at limited availability due to the ingredient shortage, with no confirmed recovery date yet (listed as TBD).
  • SpecGx LLC has limited availability of their 1.25 mg, 2.5 mg, and 7.5 mg strengths due to higher-than-usual demand, also with no confirmed recovery date.
  • Elite Laboratories, Alvogen, and Sunrise Pharmaceutical are reporting their products as currently available.
FDA reason code(s): Shortage of an active ingredient; Demand increase for the drug; Other

Based on the manufacturer-reported reason(s) and notes on file with the FDA for Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet, summarized in plain English by HelloPharmacist. A drug can be short for more than one reason, and the FDA updates these as manufacturers report changes.

What should I do if I take Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet?

Your mixed amphetamine salts tablets (the generic for Adderall) are on the FDA shortage list right now. I want to walk you through what this means so you can find the strength you take.

Here is the reassuring part: every strength on this list still has at least one manufacturer reporting supply. That includes the 1.25 mg, 1.875 mg, 2.5 mg, 3.125 mg, 3.75 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, and 30 mg tablets. No strength is completely without a source right now. Some makers list their supply as limited or unavailable, but 8 of 11 manufacturers on this record still report product available.

The FDA lists the reasons as a shortage of an active ingredient, increased demand, and other factors. This situation has lasted over a year, and some makers estimate recovery dates ranging from later in 2026 into 2027.

Here is what I suggest:

  • Do not stop, skip, or change your dose on your own.
  • Ask your pharmacy to order your exact strength; they can check wholesalers and other manufacturers.
  • Because this is the same medicine from several makers, your pharmacy may be able to source another maker's version, though it may not be in local stock.
  • If your strength cannot be found, ask your prescriber or pharmacist about options.

Manufacturer contact numbers are listed on this page for reference; pharmacies usually handle those calls. This is national data and may not match your local pharmacy's stock.

See “Where else can I get Amphetamine Aspartate Monohydrate, Amphetamine Sulfate, Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablet?” below ↓ The same medicine from manufacturers not reporting a shortage, alternative dosage forms, and therapeutic equivalents with pricing.
If you are a patient:
  • Don’t stop or change the medication on your own — talk to your prescriber first.
  • If this is part of an ongoing or essential regimen (for example HIV treatment or prevention, seizure, heart, transplant, diabetes or mental-health medicines), do not skip or ration doses — contact your pharmacist or prescriber right away to arrange continued supply before you run out.
  • Ask your pharmacy to check other manufacturers, strengths, package sizes, and nearby stores.
  • Ask your prescriber whether a different strength, formulation, or the brand/generic version is appropriate.
  • This is a controlled substance. Transfers between pharmacies and switching strengths have extra federal/state rules — ask the pharmacy before you assume a transfer is possible.
