They aren't necessarily illegal. Many, in fact, are encouraged for individuals suffering from such conditions as Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) or simply Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). These amphetamines will normally go under the name Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, Biphentin, etc. However, almost all of those comprise of the identically stimulating compound; based of the prescribed dosage of course. Although it is almost impossible to regulate, amphetamines become illegal when someone without the above conditions use the stimulant in order to 'tweak' (getting high on Amphetamines... normally Methamphetamine) or get, for example, homework done at lightning speeds... enjoying oneself in the process. In order to more effectively reach the desired high, these individuals will normally rail off lines (snort) rather than orally dropping the pill. Also, another reason that Amphetamines have gotten a bad name is because they are closely related to one of the most addictive and dangerous drugs in the world; Crystal Meth (Methamphetamine). In reality, the only difference between something like Adderall and Meth is that Meth is water soluble and so, it is more quickly absorbed/dissolved in the users body... this also makes it possible to deliver Meth intervenously. To further illustrate the similarity, Meth is even broken down into a simply Amph once its ingested. Although WikiAnswers probably prefers it if I don't include my own opinion on the matter, I find it necessary in these circumstances not to give Amphetamines a bad name. If they are taken for the right reasons by the right people (ie. those with ADHD), Amphetamines can be a life saver (and grade saver). Just take it from me... If it wasn't for these things, I wouldn't have been able to write this answer in three minutes.
There are prescription amphetamines (Ritalin, Adderall, etc..) that are legal only if prescribed by a doctor.
Amphetamins can be legally prescribed by doctors and distributed by pharmacies. Obtaining or selling them otherwise is illegal.
Yes. Adderllin is a legal form of adderall.
It does not cure ADHD but it is formulated for energy, focus, and fat-loss.
It consists of all herbal, yet very powerful ingredients.
Yes, but only with a prescription.
yes it will show up i have recently been drug tested and it does put you over the legal amount of amphetamines it does not show up as meth but it does show up as amphetamines
No, there is no FDA approved drug for "cholesterol lowering" that contains amphetamines. It has no effect on cholesterol.
Amphetamines and Dextroamphetamines are legal, where as methamphetamine is illegal. Hahah amphetamines are a little weaker but they are really close. The chemical compound is completely different. But feel identical, all though methamphetamine is a lot stronger of a chemical, and is worse for you. Oh and lastly they show up differently on drug tests.
That would be checking on marijuana, cocaine, heroin, amphetamines, steroid.
None. I don't believe any type of prescription or illegal opiate would show amphetamines in a drug test, unless street opiates (ie heroin cut with speed possibly) would show amphetamines as speed in an amphetamine, but if it's prescription opiates in pill form there aren't any in production that will make you test positive for both opiates and amphetamines.
Sertraline does not contain amphetamines. It is an SSRI antidepressant, while amphetamines are a stimulant. The drug actually reduces the metabolism of amphetamines.
Citalopram does not contain any amphetamines. It is an antidepressant that acts as an SSRI type of medication. It does not mimic amphetamines.
That depends on your point of view and what body part your focusing on. For the Central Nervous system the most dangerous drug would probably be barbiturates. Crack Cocaine is also very dangerous, as are Hallucinogens (LSD, PCP, Magic Mushrooms) Amphetamines are also very dangerous. Whether they are legal amphetamines (adderall) or illegal amphetamines (methamphetamine.)
Cocaine should contain no amphetamines. "Legal" bath salts should also not contain amphetamine, but will sometimes show up as positive for amphetamine when tested. Either substance may be contaminated with amphetimines, since they are illegal substances. The only sure way not to get amphetamines is to stay away from both substances.
Amphetamines of any kind usually speed up the body. Things like Meth, Adderall, Ritalin, etc are all classified as types of Amphetamines.
Not any more. They were about 30 years ago, but that has ended.
amphetamines are sticky,oily,and/or waxy......what else?
