Hi Adrienne508,
Yes, I had this same problem 6 weeks ago. My Doctor said that it will probably be a few months (maybe sooner) before it comes back in. In the mean time he gave me the 10mg tablets. I take 1 1/2 in the morning and four hours later I take another 15 mg’s. This Amphetamine Salts is short acting. The only problem with the 10 mg tablets is I forget quite often to take the second dose 4 hours later. Blah!
There is another type of Amphetamine Salts that is time release. I have not tried the time release; my Doctor said that it might keep me up all night. I think that the 20 mg and 30 mg tablets are the ones that are out of stock.
The 10 mg is a blue tablet and as far as I know there have been no problems with it running out. (Los Angeles)
