The US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) announced an official Adderall shortage in October 2022, but people are still struggling to get their hands on the medication a year later.
Adderall prescriptions and prescriptions for other stimulants to treat ADHD are way up, according to a new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Some 41million Americans are currently using the drug, estimates suggest, a surge of 16 percent from before the pandemic. Telemedicine companies have driven the rise.
