It’s freshly available as generic this year so no more having to perform PhD dissertations each year to get insurance to cover it. Prior authorizations are dumb af. Why would I lose my need for a medication once a year every year? And why are not-doctors making decisions on which drugs I am given?

Is it already available? Where can you get it?

Yes the Vyvanse patent expired this year I think my pharmacist said it was sometime in September officially that the generic could legally be sold. My pharmacy just got their first few shipments the morning of the day I ordered it after waiting days for prior auth issues before the store got the generic in stock. It was a Kroger pharmacy.
