MODERATORS
No, but my Vyvanse does specifically say “Methamphetamine…” on the bottle sooo…
Of course the dose is different, and the context too, but still.
It should say lisdexamphetamine on it.
While I distinctly remember reading what I thought was there, looking back at one of the bottles you are right. Still have that incredibly strong memory of the other thing, though.
The Portion Makes The Poison
Almost as though there's some kind of merit to professionalization of pharmacology.
Also in some cases the patient makes the poison. As does the situation.
In theory you could take small doses of street meth.
It's still addictive, but I think much less so if it's taken orally. Would probably help the ADHD but also make you super euphoric, if i had to guess... Pretty bad idea overall though.
Methamphetamine is still prescribed for ADHD in extreme cases. "Street meth" is exactly the same but with more impurities (assuming it hasn't been cut with other drugs like fentanyl). It would be much worse for you because of all the harmful/carcinogenic impurities, but not any more addictive or euphoric (again, assuming it's not cut with opiates)
edit: This is assuming, like the other commenter mentioned, that you stick to taking it orally. As soon as you change the route of administration to bypass the liver on its first trip through the blood stream (meaning literally any other RoA), both the "rush" and addictive potential get much larger.
The other commenter? I'm the one who said take it orally...
As I said it's a terrible idea, but it would probably help ADHD symptoms.
Sorry, I edited my comment on mobile so I couldn't see your comment directly and I wasn't sure if it was you or the person above you that said that.
It most certainly does not.
If it says "methamphetamine" you should get a new pharmacist, because it's an amphetamine, but not every amphetamine is methamphetamine.
Just like "root beer" says "beer" on the can, but it's not the same as Guinness.
