The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is warning those who take medication for ADHD, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, could face a disruption in accessing care after two executives were arrested for a $100 million fraud scheme.
The CDC issued a health advisory to inform public health officials, clinicians and patients about the potential for medication distribution to be affected.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) released information Thursday on the arrests of a California-based digital health company’s CEO and clinical president.
The duo was arrested for their alleged participation in attempting to distribute Adderall over the internet, commit health care fraud by submitting false claims for reimbursement for the drug, and obstructing justice, the DOJ’s release said.

To clarify why you’re getting downvoted:
ADHD is among the most studied of psychological disorders. It is caused by physiological differences in the prefrontal cortex. You come across as ableist, dismissing this very real and frequently debilitating psychological disorder that people are born with. Like telling someone with recurrent major depressive disorder to “just cheer up” or someone with a compound fracture to “walk it off”.
Would you tell someone with a black mamba bite that was begging for antivenin that they sounded like an addict due to their desire for medicine to treat their medical condition?
Uh, I’m not talking about withdrawals. I’m saying that after 20 years of being a failure and “slacker”, I finally got my life together. Heck, I could make goals and achieve them. And then to go back to what it was. Fucking hurts.
So it sounds like it was different then lmfao
