ADHD meds have been basically non-existent for the last few years. When will they actually make the medication available to us?
This may actually make the medications more available for those who are not patients of "Done Global, Inc" which was a telehealth company that specializes in ADHD.
But those who are patients of Done Global Inc are going to have a hell of a time finding a different doctor and getting back on their meds.
I couldn't find the specific regulation they violated, but reading this and from the vague description, my best guess that they may have been playing loose with "establishing a patient relationship" and doing thorough evaluations of patients to ensure they had ADHD (and possibly skipping alternative lower Schedule medications).

You can call it what it is. They were operating an online Pill Mill. While I really hope those patients using this service can find healthcare elsewhere I am very glad to hear this place was shut down.
Yeah, quite a few people on this 3 year old reddit post talk about that experience:

Done (DoneFirst), also charged an initial $200, then $79 a month though more current reviews mention $90 a month.
The comments on that thread are enlightening.
