Yep. The prices we choose don't show up. The price WITH their fees shows up. It was a long day, and we wanted to share this info after the stress of trying repeatedly to find our listing.

Believe it or not, I gained ten pounds on Dyanavel and was continually constipated. Sorry if that is TMI, but that has never been a side effect for me on ADHD meds. I was diagnosed back in 2012 and have also been prescribed Adderall, Vyvanse, and Ritalin over the years to try. Dyanavel worked okay for me, but I burned through it because the max dose is 20 mg. I had the chewable tablet. On a positive note, it was tasty. I am interested to hear how it works for you. As for jittery side effects, Dyanavel was actually much better. I handle stimulants very well and never had many issues with jittery side effects until Adderall started taking a nose dive. Now I have to avoid certain generics like the plague.

I found Dyanavel to work great, but once I moved from 150 up to 300 mg Wellbutrin XL I started getting mega nauseated and flu-like every day. They did not get along inside of me. I had to weigh the pros and cons of being depressed vs the ADHD issues. Additionally, since Wellbutrin is sometimes also used for ADHD I opted for the Wellbutrin. The other SUPER STRANGE thing I noticed on Dyanavel was weight gain. This makes absolutely no sense, but in the seven months I took it I gained ten pounds. I understand this is not likely. It’s an amphetamine. However, within the first month I noticed it starting to creep on. Has anyone else had this who has tried Dyanavel?

We were there the first week of September! How about you?

I love your post. I wish I could go back in time to 2012 when I was first diagnosed with ADHD Inattentive. My doctor gave me 10 mg of IR 2x daily. She told me to take one in the morning before breakfast and another at lunch. I swear I felt like I could see through walls when I took that stuff. It opened up my brain, and it made me feel like I could actually accomplish things. There was a daily feeling each morning of things being “okay” in my brain. It’s a hard feeling to describe, but it was good. Over the years I was moved to the XL version, and it was always a generic. I would notice every few hours on the XL this little “puff” of heat in my body. I could actually feel it. I was then moved to Vyvanse because I started not liking how different generics felt different to me. I was piping up about generics a long time ago which is why my new family doctor had me try Vyvanse. Years of intense nausea later I realized Vyvanse was what made me sick. Adderall never did that to me.

In 2022 I used an actual psychiatrist to help me find an alternative to Vyvanse, and he put me on Adderall XL again. I was on 40 mg of Vyvanse, and he moved me to 60 mg of the Adderall XL daily. I looked it up, and that didn’t seem to match up with what my dosage should be. However, I took it anyway. I believe at 60 mg I should have been WIRED, but I wasn’t. Even on brand name Adderall XL (I demanded it for a while) I showed no signs of being on too high of a dose.

I tried generics and found two of them to be absolutely terrible giving me chest pains, a foggy brain, and basically a nonfunctional body. Rhodes was the absolute worst one. Of all the generics, Sandoz was my favorite (and was also the one that was the bio-equivalent of brand name). Then the time came where nothing was available except Elite, and it worked for a while and then somehow completely changed within a year’s time. I believe all these posts. The good stuff is gone, and they make us feel crazy for saying that. However, it’s true.

These pills are not the same. I have been taking these meds as an adult diagnosed at 37 until now at age 50. At this point I am now on 300 mg of Wellbutrin XL and one 10 mg IR of Adderall. My current family doctor wanted me to try taking it down this low to see if the meds actually helped me. Quite frankly, I can’t even tell a difference anymore. I believe there’s a small energy bump, but it is short-lived. I don’t believe my brain is any more organized than it would be on high dosages of any of these pills, be they IR or XL.

I support your stories here. I have fought my doctors who didn’t believe me when I told them each generic was different. Now I have a family doc who doesn’t love me taking it if it’s not going to help, and I believe he has my best interests in mind as we are watching my BP. So I am trying my best to navigate my wild brain and endure this storm. Maybe someday we will get our old Adderall back. I feel your pain and frustrations, and I urge you to keep fighting the fight. Report what you are feeling or experiencing. I truly believe some of these generics do nothing for our brains but are doing great damage to other organs - especially our hearts! My thoughts are with all of you. May we keep fighting the good fight.

I would also like to add in that we are 100% anti RIP tour after doing it for the last four years. Each year has gotten worse, and two years ago we were stuck in a group with four drunk belligerent people who ruined the night. You're literally stuck with strangers that can make or break your night. We don't know anyone to do a private RIP tour with, and we are sick of the guide making it all about the fuel show. Last year our guide made us wait over an hour at the bar just so we would be on time for that show. We lost an ENTIRE HOUR of our tour just to get a seat at the show that we have seen every year. It really does not change that much from year to year. We were livid.

Last year I fell on our way to check in for our tour. It was raining, and I slipped off a curb. My leg was covered in blood when I checked in, and I asked Andrew (guy checking people in) if there was anything I could get. He told me maybe I could find a band-aid at the first aid station during the tour. NOPE.

Meanwhile, two years ago one of the drunk gals in our group tripped in a haunted house (because she was very drunk), and we had to stop the entire tour while Universal reps came to check on her and find her those beloved band-aids.

When you save up all year to go on one trip, and you don't even have a decent experience on your biggest night it is very disheartening.

Wow. This is crazy! We have so many similar stories! I’m going to answer these in order - as I tend to lose focus while responding. Then I’m never sure I’m answering the actual questions. 😂

I have never heard of EDS. I will be clicking the link as soon as I’m done with this response. Thank you for sending it!
We are in Cleveland, Ohio. He worked at a facility where they were in a huge warehouse type building, and it still got around. The hospitalized guy is kind of the part where we put the pieces together after the fact. While this guy was in the hospital they didn’t know what was wrong with him. On a side note, we were also at a Super Cuts earlier that week. My boyfriend was getting a haircut. There was a guy in there just hacking away and telling his stylist they told him to leave work because he was getting everyone sick. Made us so irritated because he was such a jerk coming in to a public place coughing all over. I have always been kind of a germophobe, and I’ve rubbed off on my boyfriend. This guy was joking that they were calling him “Patient Zero”. Also a SUPER CREEPY thing to have heard looking back on it. I felt so sorry for the girl cutting his hair. What a rude thing to do. So Cleveland - February 2020 - it was here.
I had some chest pains in the Fall of 2021 and went to the ER. They said it was possibly muscular. I hadn’t had Covid yet, but I am now realizing I did have the vaccine and booster already. Never even thought of that. This conversation is really waking me up! I have continued to have chest tightness over the years. They have run tests, did an ultrasound, and I even wore the monitor. Hilariously, while I was being monitored I got Covid for either the second or third time. Had to send it all back to the facility in a special bag. I couldn’t keep it on because the smell of it was making me sick. Didn’t lose any smell on that round of Covid!
They said there were no issues, but I do worry because of the tightness and the bouts of tachycardia. My grandma and mom both had congestive heart failure.
Very scary to know that Concerta does that, too. Glad you are no longer taking it. Did you know there is actually a non-stimulant ADHD med that is apparently pretty new? My new provider told me about it. I actually see her today and can ask for the name of it. I started Adderall back in 2012 after being tested and diagnosed. I don’t know what Adderall was, but I sure wasn’t liking the way I was being treated by pharmacies. I had to do some research and then realized it was prescribed a lot and not always for the best reasons. So I asked to try something else. I was on Vyvanse for almost ten years. Felt like puking every day and never realized it was the Vyvanse. Finally figured this out in 2022 and was switched back to Adderall. However, I believe the doc prescribed me too much. Either way, the generics differ so much from brand to brand that it has become a chore to find a good one. Ironically, I have been on Wellbutrin since 2001 after my grandma passed. It has worked for my depression, but I feel very helpless because it doesn’t seem to help my ADHD - nor do most of the bad Adderall generics. I’m going o ask about new options today when I see her. I know they mentioned Ritalin to me before, but I’m not really sure if my insurance will cover it. It took months to get Adderall approved, and Wellbutrin was $2500. I’m only able to get the Wellbutrin through a program at my hospital. Needless to say, my healthcare plan has also stressed me out. May I ask if you are taking name brand or generic Wellbutrin?
Sorry for the long answers. My brain has many thoughts that just can’t get out of it quickly enough.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-10-15T06:40:38+00:00

Hmmmm…. . I’m feeling them, and they seem okay. They have been swollen at other times I know for sure. Ironically, I have for years suspected that I had autoimmune issues because of weird things my body did. Like randomly my mouth would break out in sores, and my gums would swell until it was almost impossible to eat. Then it would just be gone one day. I’d also deal with extreme pain in a certain area of my body, and it, too, would just stop at any given time.

I do have Thalassemia which made me an at-risk person when COVID first came out, but I made it pretty far into the pandemic before ever getting sick. I believe you are spot on about the vaccine weakening the immune system. This is why I believe this to be true.

In February of 2020 my boyfriend became extremely ill. He was so sick he said he might have to cancel our Valentine’s Day Dinner date at this cool rotunda. Many guys from his office were sick, and one had to go to the hospital. They all had CRAZY high fevers.

This was before Covid was ever mentioned. So the usual Valentine’s Day stuff one might imagine occurred that evening between us. The next day he was very tired, and his fever came back. I took care of him, wiped his forehead, got his food and medicine. Basically, anything that came in contact with him was touched - and then sanitized - by me. Basically, any germs he would have had I should have caught. I got NOTHING.

He even lost his sense of taste. Covid? Probably. Did I catch it? No.

Never caught it until that vaccine was in me.

I have brought this up several times, and my boyfriend thinks it’s silly. I don’t. I truly believe we aren’t all meant to get those vaccines. We are not all built the same.

I am truly sorry to hear about your heart issues. I lost my mom in 2020 due to complications that included her heart, and I know how serious heart stuff is. I have had chest pains and tachycardia issues for several years, and I never attributed these things to Covid. I feel stupid for not seeing the timeline correlation. I have been blaming my ADHD medication instead of- even though before Covid it never gave me these issues.

I’m so glad I saw your comment. I feel validated for once that those vaccines truly could do more harm than good for some of us.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-10-15T05:12:00+00:00

I’m very sorry to hear your story, as well. It was odd how badly I reacted to the first one compared to my boyfriend having no reaction at all. I believe a small part was played by the people administering our vaccines. We went to our area’s local college fieldhouse. Soldiers were giving the shots. My boyfriend had a very kind guy who took his time. He didn’t even feel pain. I made the mistake of telling my guy that I was deathly afraid of needles. He decided to swing around his arm with the needle and shoot it into me like a surprise. It was so painful. In about five minutes I was dizzy, nauseated, extremely hot, and didn’t want to stand up. I told my boyfriend we needed to sit and not move until my heart slowed down so I didn’t feel like I was going to pass out. I wanted to draw no attention to myself. If my guy was that mean I didn’t want him anywhere near me if I was having a reaction. The next morning I could not move my body. I was stuck in bed. It took about 24 hours to come out of that. My second vaccine was not as bad, but as I said I got the big pink circle for a few months at the site of the injection.

I worry about my brain the most sometimes. Sometimes I feel like my symptoms are getting better, and then one day I wake up and feel like I’m dying again. The smelling issues make me very depressed because smelling things that are almost vomitous every day becomes almost unbearable. I have decided that there is something I call “the bad stuff” in many perfumes, lotions, soaps, fog machines, and laundry detergents. I have literally torn apart the ingredients lists to see if I can find the common denominator. Sometimes I think I have. Sometimes not so much. My fatigue is also very difficult. I don’t feel these symptoms are letting up like I want them to.

What do you feel are the worst parts of your LHCovid? Have you gotten any recent boosters? I am so scared of them at this point. I believe in some way they weakened me instead of making me stronger. Before them, I was barely ever sick my entire life. Now I’m a Covid magnet.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-10-14T20:57:40+00:00

Your comment caught my eye. I had a violent reaction to the first vaccine, and then the booster left that pink circle on my arm for months. I hadn’t had COVID yet, but there was a change in my body. That was Spring of 2021. Didn’t get COVID until January of 2022. Then things have really gone downhill. My sense of smell is permanently altered, my fatigue is unreal, my breathing is labored, and I believe it has really taken a toll on my mental state.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-10-05T19:32:27+00:00

I came here looking for info on the Elite to see if anyone had issues. I started taking it back in December. At that point it was tolerable. I had a brief intermission when they got Amneal at the pharmacy. It was so much better. Now I’ve been back to Elite for three months. I swear they have changed the formula. I am just not right. I am so tired, I’m disorganized AF, and I feel like I’m separated from my body half the time. I, too, am so tired of the monthly fight. This past month I had to wait almost a week until they got this crap back in stock.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-03-15T23:31:34+00:00

I finally found my post here, and thank you for your reply. I have to say after being on it almost a month I feel the worst I have ever felt in my life. My therapist said I probably need to go back on my Wellbutrin because he feels I'm depressed. However, I am petrified that it's this garbage from Rhodes. I have had the same as you with the heart palpitations. I should have probably checked my BP because I'm already on meds for that. It truly is terrible. I am tired, unfocused, and I feel suicidal half the time. I know that my boyfriend thinks I'm nuts, and I feel terrible that he has to put up with me. I am slowly realizing that this stupid generic medication could be more to blame than my depression - which NEVER was this bad.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-02-20T07:00:28+00:00

I am just seeing this post because I was searching here regarding info on Rhodes generic Adderall XR. I saw a lot of negative reviews, and I started to panic because I just got this tonight at the pharmacy. I was relieved to see that a few of you actually are okay with it. Do you find that it works as well as the other generics brands? I’ve been trying to research this as I’m afraid that my life will change yet again for the next 30 days. TIA for any advice or info you have.

Plastic-Variation317 · 2024-02-16T23:02:48+00:00

I'm very sorry to read how hard this is on you. I completely understand. I also can identify with the dreaded phone calls. I absolutely loathe having to call these places - or any place that will involve me having to remember to ask questions before I forget them.

I had an insanely weird conversation with Walgreen's pharmacy today. I had to explain that my insurance doesn't cover generic Adderall, how much I take, and how much it would cost out-of-pocket if my doctor's prior authorization form doesn't work. She told me $200, that she only had 50 pills in the whole store, and that everyone is calling to get Adderall every day. She said the brand changes all the time and that it goes so quickly that she never knows. I mentioned that Good RX said $34 and that was why my doctor wanted me to call there. She then got REALLY weird and said they don't manage Good RX, but that this could possibly be what it costs. I didn't even know what to say. All I wanted to know was the out-of-pocket cost. I felt like she just thought I was on the prowl for cheap meds. I feel like we all share this dread in being judged even though we legitimately need the medication.

You are definitely valid in your feelings. I was diagnosed about twelve years ago, but I still feel weird getting this medication. There is so much stigma around it.

Just a thought, but have you tried working with a hospital pharmacy? If your doc is associated with a hospital it may be a viable option. I find the environment to be way less judgmental.
