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.
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

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
