One solution might be to try a different ADHD medication that is covered by the patient assistance programs. Have you tried explain your financial situation to your doctor? She may be able to suggest a more affordable treatment alternative.

I hope this helps, Dena

Hi I just happen to stumble across your post. My husband is a Pharmacist and recommends this anytime you cannot afford your medication with or without insurance. If you call the manufacturing compay that makes the drug and ask them for any help they have or program they provide they can usually get you some help. For Adderall it is TEVAUSA and you can call them 888 TEVA USA (838-2872) and ask if they can help you. Just google the drug name and you can find out who makes it and how to contact them. Hope that helps you out. I know it has helped my family many times. My dad takes Humera for his RA and the manufacturing company paid for 6 months free and then for the next 6 months i belive it was like 30/month which was substancially cheaper than his insurance. Good Luck.

im a 23 yo f, recently graduated and had a similar problem. the immediate release are a fraction of the cost, and generic helps. i also discovered that my pharmacy has discounts that aren't advertised for the uninsured. don't be afraid to ask, they were more accommodating than I had anticipated! it took some leg work (getting my doctor to write a script for the immed. release, bringing them the old one... waiting, waiting) but i was able to get my 30 day supply, retail price of $504 for $35.50!

best of luck, i know the price of these meds are ovewhelming! don't be afraid to shop around.. call the pharmacies, even different branches of same company.

also, concerta website has a coupon for 30 day supply for free- that was going to be my next route.
