Four-Hour Trip Just to Get a Prescription: ADHD Medication Shortage Continues | Good Morning Britain

The shortage of ADHD medication continues, despite the government telling us last November that all issues would be resolved by the end of 2023. New data obtained by GMB from ADHD UK shows that as of January 2024, the issue is far from resolved and in some areas it's getting worse, with only 11% of people with ADHD telling GMB they expect to get their full normal medication dose this month.

We speak to Molly Brooks-Dridge, who was diagnosed with ADHD in 2019, she says she’s been left to fend for herself and had to travel four hours to the Isle of Wight for a small dose of medication so she could enjoy Christmas and Boxing Day. She reveals that she hasn't had a full prescription since October 2023.
