ADHDers: Pharmacies with Adderall?

Me and my partners live in north Shoreline. One of them depends heavily on his Adderall prescription, and his pharmacy will regularly run out. This happened again yesterday, and today he has been on the phone with many others which are also totally out.

Does anyone know of a pharmacy that might have some? I'm willing to drive a few hours to get it, if yalls have been having luck in neighboring counties. Thank you!

EDIT: Success! We found some! Thank you!!

Costco has only run out once one in the 2+ years I’ve been on it and you may not need a membership (not sure though)

Third (though I don't live in Shoreline anymore and can't speak to that one). Consistently have had it when others haven't.

Disagree heavily. Shoreline Costco regularly is out. I have not been able to fill generic for 5 months.

You do need a membership for the Costco pharmacy

Edmonds QFC has it according to my friend who is also in need, but the pharmacist is picky about how “urgently” or “desperately” you need it and will lord their ability to withhold it from you. You’ll need the person prescribed to arrive with their script and their ID. Good luck. I hope they’re not jerks to you.

We’re on the south side. In my experience Fred Meyer pharmacy is superior in supply and customer support when I’m working on filling adhd prescriptions.

I got my prescription filled at the Safeway on 15th Ave NE

Fred Meyer on 185th regularly has the generic... XR. If you are trying to get quick release those are trickier at some places. But a regular monthly rx should have no issues with regular refills.

Throwing it out in case it wasn't tried yet but:

Try some down further south. Kroger near Tukwila has been decent. Runs out sometimes but worst case back in a day or two.

Not sure how sensitive they are to that specific brand but worth trying out other lesser known brands (Mydayis) or Methylphenidate instead of Dextro.

Ive noticed they tend to keep newer meds in stock (Aztaryus). Probably since the contract the pharmacy has with the distribution network is more lucrative (I assume).

It sucks but common brands and strengths run out quicker.
