One Lowcountry pharmacist says less than 20% of the normal number of tablets that one Adderall wholesaler provides is currently in stock.

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (WCSC) - One Lowcountry pharmacist says less than 20% of the normal number of tablets that one Adderall wholesaler provides is currently in stock. This comes after months of pharmacists across the country experiencing a major shortage in Adderall.

The Food and Drug Administration first declared an Adderall shortage last October and some Lowcountry pharmacies say now it’s at its worst.

Tidewater Pharmacy and Compounding in Mount Pleasant says 50% of their phone calls coming in are people looking for Adderall.

“I haven’t seen it this bad in the eight years that we’ve been open,” Chad Straughan, pharmacist at Tidewater Pharmacy and Compounding, said.

Although Tidewater has a short supply, others like Delta Pharmacy, the only pharmacy in all of Isle of Palms, says they are completely out of stock and keep having to turn people away.

“Just in the last two to three weeks it’s gotten big time,” Joe Gandy, pharmacist in charge at Delta Pharmacy, said. “We’ve not been able to get anything here for a while.”

Both pharmacists say they receive Adderall from a few wholesalers that also serve grocery stores and drug stores, not just in South Carolina.

“Generic Adderall, you know, the actual drug cost isn’t that high, but some of the other brand name ones can cost over $1,000 a bottle,” Gandy said.

With limited availability, some people are having to switch to taking a different amount of pills to get the prescribed amount of milligrams. However, Straughan says the more tablets there are, the higher your insurance costs could go.

“Especially in the younger population, you know, they’ve zoned in with a physician or a psychiatrist that’s prescribing it to make it work for that child,” Straughan said. “But now, the parents are having to go back to the drawing board with a physician and try different things.”

Straughan says Adderall isn’t the only shortage. It’s also happening with children’s antibiotics like Tylenol and Advil.

“Schools back in session coming off the holidays, kids are being snotty and everything else,” Straughan said. “You can’t get antibiotics right now.”

As far as Adderall, Gandy says it’s important to be patient.

“Try and keep in touch with your doctor or whoever is prescribing for you, and they may have to get a little creative with what you’re taking,” Gandy said.

Both pharmacists say they know on a day-by-day basis what will be in stock and to keep calling around to different pharmacies to see what is available.

MOUNT PLEASANT, NC (WBTV) - It's been several things over the years, a livery, general store, there was even an old well found on the property of what was most recently a textile and hosiery mill, but now the most recognizable building in Mt. Pleasant is being transformed into a restaurant and economic engine for the community.

"We launched into it and it kind of snowballed and got to be a bigger project than we thought," said Developer Doctor Allen Dobson.

The has always been the centerpiece of the town, and thanks to the work being done here now, it is once again the talk of the town.

"They're restoring the old mill and we're going to get a restaurant, sports bar, patio seating, like an upscale dining, hopefully an event center upstairs," said local business owner Darlene Brown.

That's what doctor Dobson plans to do on the property. He says the finished project will be called 73 & Main and will offer four experiences in the same building. And it was also about the restoration of a building to the way it appeared in 1911.

Town leaders say the project fits well with what citizens expressed as their desire for the property and the downtown area in a recent public survey.

"We received over 600 survey responses," said Town Planner Erin Burris. "Respondents stated that restaurants are the most crucial use for a successful downtown. Restaurants were also the primary feature that respondents said would make them want to spend more time in downtown Mount Pleasant. They also noted that parking availability was one of the biggest problems in downtown. So, with the restaurant and parking lot projects, two of the most desired attributes for downtown are being addressed.

Local shop owners and folks working nearby are pretty excited about it.

"It's also great that they're using the hosiery mill, using old history and bringing it back to life," said Kassy Haigler who works at Moose Pharmacy.

It's also bringing life to the town. A new 52 space public parking lot is being built on Main Street. That was already planned, but the timing was perfect to go with the restaurant, and developers are now looking at some of the other downtown buildings, spurred by the excitement created on the corner.

"We're hoping to bring new people to Mount Pleasant and hopefully people that normally go to Albemarle or Concord would stop here in Mount Pleasant," Brown added.

"This community is very very small but we're also thriving…new apartments coming in, I think this will be great for this community," Haigler said.

Dr. Dobson says all the excitement around the project has really taken him by surprise, but he's hopeful that the project will appeal to the locals, as well as become a destination spot.

"We can cater to Mt. Pleasant, but also people who would like to come to a cool historic building, have great food, and experience a cool little town."

The target opening date for 73 & Main is December 15.

Several businesses came together to make their wedding a reality.

MOUNT PLEASANT, N.C. — A couple, who are refugees from Ukraine, said “I do” Saturday night in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina. The wedding was a gift to the newlyweds whose nuptials were put on hold because of the ongoing war.

“Oh, I’m so happy, it’s amazing. It’s such a beautiful day,” said Anastasia Panarin, the blushing bride.

It was a winter wonderland wedding at Carolina Country Weddings for Anastasia and her now-husband Max Panarin. From the first look to exchanging vows and rings, the couple said it was a dream.

The two met at an orphanage in Ukraine and were cared for by GLOW Mission. Dar Draper is the executive director and the couples' sponsor. She is also behind gifting the couple this wedding.

“They were engaged for like two years, and they would have been married if they stayed in Ukraine, but because of the war they couldn’t go back,” said Draper. “I said 'we can get you married here.'”

She served as the mom for both the bride and groom and her husband officiated the wedding.
