Is there any possibility that a generic version of Adderall is not exactly the same as Adderall if it says generic for Adderall on the label?

Generics are supposed to be "bioequivalent" to the brand name drugs, meaning that they use the same active ingredients and work with the same speed of action. The FDA does allow a 20% variance in bioavailability (i.e., the fraction of an administered dose of unchanged drug that reaches the systemic circulation) compared to the bio-availability of the brand name drug.
In addition, the color and shape of the tablet and the binders that hold it together are different. People are sometimes allergic to the binders or dyes in certain pills, but this is no more likely with the generic than the name brand.

What pharmaceutical company makes Adderall?
Shire is the original maker of Adderall until their patent expired. Then TEVA and BARR stepped in, but their version is lacking critical ingredients, so the *Generic* version of Adderall is not as effective and in some cased creates more problems with the people who are on it versus the original Adderall by Shire Pharmaceuticals.
How much is generic 20mg adderall without insurance?
I just had a prescription filled for 30 20mg Adderall XR capsules. Without insurance it would have been around $215! Since my insurance sucks I still paid around $175. Gonna talk to my doctor about switching to Dexedrine which is comparable to Adderall and costs around $40-50 depending on the dose. Just an FYI, you can get a generic version of Adderall (sold as mixed amphetamine salts), but only in the instant release version. Adderall XR (extended release) is patented through 2018 so there will not be a generic version of Adderall XR for several years.

Is the formula for the generic version of adderall called amphetamine any different than the original Adderall?
Answer:The generic version of Adderall - or any drug - is NOT the "equivalent" of its 'brand name' counterpart.Rather, the manufacturer of the generic must prove to the FDA only that the generic is the "bioequivalent" of the 'brand name' drug."Bioequivalent" has a technical definition. (According to Wikipedia, the FDA considers two products "bioequivalent" if the 90% CI of the relative mean Cmax, AUC(0-t) and AUC(0-∞) of the test (e.g. generic formulation) to reference (e.g. innovator brand formulation) should be within 80.00% to 125.00% in the fasting state. Although there are a few exceptions, generally a bioequivalent comparison of Test to Reference formulations also requires administration after an appropriate meal at a specified time before taking the drug, a so-called "fed" or "food-effect" study. A food-effect study requires the same statistical evaluation as the fasting study, described above.) ____________________Generic Adderall is often labeled as "mixed amphetamine salts" or similar.
