Methamphetamine is an ADHD drug. I take it for my ADHD, with a legal prescription of course. Ironically it's the most subtle and gentle of all the ADHD stimulants, at least at therapeutic doses. It has a bad reputation…
I asked my psychiatrist about it after doing a lot of research on my own. I have tried all the other ADHD stimulants and formulations but it wasn't that none of them worked for me or that I required a high dose (I take…
Metabolism plays a big role in determining the effective dose. There are people who can take what are considered high therapeutic doses and feel very little effects because of the way their body metabolizes the…
Levoamphetamine is more active on the PNS, while not that active on the CNS, which causes more side effects but some people swear by it as being the best medicine. It made me feel anxious while pure dextroamphetmine did…
There are no negative effects on health by taking them at prescribed doses unless you already have an existing cardiac condition or something similar. You can safely take these drugs your entire life without…
Very good points. They really make us jump through a lot of hoops just to get the medicine we need to live a somewhat normal life, all in the name of preventing drug abuse. I don't believe it actually does anything…
That's not true, I have ADHD and I still feel stimulated when I take my medicine just like anyone else would. The difference is that it also gives me symptom relief as well. Over time you will develop more of a…
Perhaps I misunderstood your comment, you said that people with ADHD react differently and I was assuming you meant they do not respond in the same manor as someone else who just took a stimulant. Often you hear this…
There is, it's called Evekeo. In the past (up until the 60s or 70s I believe), there was also a racemic mixture available on the market as well.
As one who takes methamphetamine (generic Desoxyn) for ADHD, I can't help but take issue with the sensationalism in this article. If someone takes the same low dose I do but doesn't actually have ADHD, how could they be…
This is false and a common myth. If this was true then we would have the perfect test for ADHD, just give someone some stimulants and see how they react.
It does improve cognition in low doses with very little side effects and no real long term danger unless you already have a cardiac condition. Also there have been studies that show that people on low-dose therapeutic…
Actually Adderall is not racemic, since that would mean a 50/50 mix of the dextrorotatory and levorotatory enantiomers. Adderall is 75% dextroamphetamine and 25% levoamphetamine in four different salts.
That is a myth, the effects are the same regardless of whether or not you have ADHD otherwise we'd be able to test for ADHD by simply giving someone amphetamines and seeing how they respond. Almost anyone who takes…
If you have never taken ADHD stimulants before then you might experience a little bit of euphoria the first few days of stimulant therapy, due to lack of tolerance, but I doubt it would be an impairment to driving.…
