Petition Hold a Public Inquiry into the shortage of ADHD medication

We want the Government to hold a Public Inquiry into the shortage of ADHD medication, to find out how this shortage has come about, what is being done about the shortage and what further action can be taken.

More details

We believe the regulator and manufacturers are not doing enough to tackle this shortage and ensure ADHD medication is available to patients.

The US has approved generic ADHD medications due to ongoing shortages: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/news-events-human-drugs/fda-approves-multiple-generics-adhd-and-bed-treatment
