Currently my 13-year-old son has been out of his much-needed medication for one week. We cannot find any pharmacy that has dexmethylphenidate in stock. My wife has called numerous pharmacies and has been told this medication has been out of stock currently and may be out for months.
The medication helps people that have anger control issues and other mental issues such as autism, ADHD, ODD and so on. Without this medication families suffer as well as neighbors from the said noise caused by anger blowups from those needing said medication.
I have read that pharmaceutical companies have laid off workers and thus slowed production of medications to cause price increases. This needs to be reversed ASAP.
Please call your congressional representatives and push for Congress to investigate this problem.
