- DEA Proposals Restricting Stimulant Prescriptions:
The DEA has made several proposals, potentially to be enacted at the end of 2025, that would significantly restrict access to teleprescribing for stimulant medications. Prescribers would be required to be certified for a new license to write for any controlled substance, and those writing for schedule II (Adderall, Vyvanse, Ritalin, and opioids) would need an even more restrictive license. Further, no prescriber could write for more than half of their prescriptions via telehealth. While some of these rules are directed at the business model of purely on-line ADHD clinics, there is no evidence to suggest that this would actually reduce sloppy diagnosing or prescribing, or would meaningfully reduce rates of abuse of stimulants.
