Shortage of ADHD Medication
We have been made aware by a number of people that there are currently nationwide shortages of ADHD medication in the UK. This has also led to some NHS services pausing medication titration as they cannot obtain the necessary medication.
If you are running out of medication, or have run out of medication, it might be worthwhile to use the Boots Pharmacy Stock Checking website prescription checking service to see if there is a Boots Pharmacy near you that has any medication in stock. Checking any local independent pharmacies might also be a useful approach as they have different supply chains.
If we hear any more news on this, we will update the website and social media.
