Hmmm, illicit methamphetamine is d isomer as it is generally crystal meth and l-methamphetamine will not crystalize.I cannot tell the difference between d-methamphetamine and dexadrine (d-amphetamine),
other than length of action. I have not had any experience with l-amphetamine or l-methamphetamine but it is well reported that there are more side effects with the l isomer.
The spansule formulation for dexadrine allows
for a longer action. generic formulations exist
so dexadrine can be cheap.
