With Concerta, the generic is NOT NOT NOT a substutute. In the site somewhere, they actually say that it takes like 3 weeks to make a Concerta pill. They laser drill a hole in one end for the release mech. The other ones are just Rittilan, in a pill that mimics the release over time. I just went through it, trying to find a working replacement. Nothing is like Concerta.
Make sure you Doc puts NO SUB on your script.
