Drug Schedules

[inedibleflower]

Methamphetamine is Schedule II? What possible medical use could that have? I understand the usage of cocaine as a numbing agent, but methamphetamine specifically as medication? So strange.

I give it less than 5 years before marijuana is finally taken out of Schedule I.

Certain neurological diseases such as narcolepsy other clinical uses, it is doubtful that Methamphetamine would be used but Amphetamine sulfate is still on many formularies, it is also used for ADD although Aderal is the medication of choice.  In the 1960's it was widely prescribed to lose weight, that use is no longer allowed.

Very interesting, I had no idea it was used for narcolepsy. And I agree that amph salts would probably be used instead, but now I understand the possible use.

Thanks for the info!
