Ten milligram tablets of the hyperactivity drug, Adderall, made by Shire Plc. Adderall and alternative ADHD medications apart from other drugs are Schedule 2 controlled substances. Production limitationsEnding the shortages of Adderall and other ADHD medications is no easy task.

The US military is reportedly planning to take extra steps to test the quality of the generic drugs it buys for servicemembers and their families. Bloomberg reported in May that the White House has assembled a team to tackle shortages and quality issues with generic medications. "I have family who take generic drugs, I take generic drugs," he said, adding, "I don't get concerned and I don't tell them to be concerned."
