'I'm not a drug dealer. That's how they make you feel. I tried another pharmacy, and that led to like, pharmacy to pharmacy…You're on your own, deal with it.
'Tomorrow, I have to count the pills that I have left, you know, see what day that ends on, and then start the process all over again,' Coronado said.

The Food and Drug Administration predicts that medical use of amphetamine, methylphenidate and lisdexamfetamine to treat ADHD and other issues in the U.S. will climb 3.1% in 2024.
