Cool to see some validation that these two services are either pill mills or skirting proper procedure to get diagnosed and treated. Funny to say that only a couple weeks ago people here on HN were praising these companies for making ADHD medication "accessible" and not seeing that this is a problem just like opioids and other commercially advertised drugs. You can't just pass on the liability to the distributor here. It seems rather odd that someone can get diagnosed over a 30 minute tele-health call for a schedule II substance.

> Adderall, which is most commonly prescribed to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), is a Schedule II controlled substance, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This means it is considered to be a drug that has "high abuse potential" but is still accepted for medical use. The FDA advises that amphetamines, such as Adderall, should be "prescribed or dispensed sparingly."

> "Administration of amphetamines for prolonged periods of time may lead to drug dependence and must be avoided," the agency says. "Misuse of amphetamine may cause sudden death and serious cardiovascular adverse events."
