Amphetamine, commonly known as "speed," is classified as a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant. It is primarily used in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. Due to its potential for abuse and addiction, amphetamine is also classified as a Schedule II controlled substance in many countries, indicating it has a high potential for misuse.
