Amphetamine, dextroamphetamine, methamphetamine, and their
various salts, are collectively referred to as amphetamines.

Amphetamine was first marketed as Benzedrine in an
over-the-counter inhaler to treat nasal congestion. By 1937,
amphetamine was available by prescription in tablet form and was
used in the treatment of the sleeping disorder, narcolepsy, and
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

During World War II, amphetamine was widely used to keep the
fighting men going and both dextroamphetamine Dexedrine and
methamphetamine, Methedrine were readily available.

In the 1960s, amphetamines became a perceived remedy for helping
truckers to complete their long routes without falling asleep, for
weight control, for helping athletes to perform better and train
longer, and for treating mild depression.

Recent increases in medical use of these drugs can be attributed to
their use in the treatment of ADHD. Amphetamine products
presently marketed include generic and brand name
amphetamine,Adderall, Dexedrine, Dextrostat and brand name
methamphetamine, Desoxyn. Amphetamines are Schedule II
controlled substances.

Today, most amphetamines distributed to the black market are
produced in home made meth labs.  The ease of cooking meth,
combined with huge profits, has resulted in widespread availability
of Methamphetamine.

Large amounts of methamphetamine are also illicitly smuggled into
the United States from Mexico.

Being charged with any crime is a frightening experience. This is

subjected to indignities you never thought you would experience.
The stress of being the subject of an investigation or the trauma of
being arrested and booked into a jail can truly be overwhelming. For

the end of the world.
