How to safely use meth and adderall (amphetamines)

              Amphetamines are a group of stimulant drugs including Meth and Adderall. There are thousands of drugs in the amphetamine class but these 2 are the most prevalent in society. Methamphetamine and amphetamine salt (Adderall) yield extremely similar effects and carry similar risks when consumed in recreational doses. Note that any information written about ADDERALL refers to those who abuse and get high on it. Prescribed amounts for those who need the drug are not included in this article. People with ADHD taking prescribed 5mg to 20mg of Adderall are not the same as an average person snorting (sniffing) many crushed up pills to get high. 

         Methamphetamine is also known as meth, crank, ice, crystal. Adderall is sometimes called a smart drug or study drug. Methamphetamine is illegal in all circumstances whereas Adderall can be legally prescribed for the treatment of disorders like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Both drugs are central nervous stimulants or “uppers” that induce euphoria, explosive amount of energy, increase enthusiasm, ramp up heart rate, and constrict pupils / circulation. High doses of these drugs lessen the desire for eating or sleeping which has many mental and bodily consequences. The Amphetamine class of drugs used recreationally cause the user to feel stronger, more confident, smarter, and more aware then they really are.

Methamphetamine and Adderall are both Schedule 2 drugs in the United States. Schedule 2 drugs are considered to have high potential for abuse potentially leading to severe psychological or physical dependence. The scheduling of a drug is determined by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in America. Other Schedule 2 drugs include cocaine, Ritalin, oxycodone, and fentanyl. The scheduling of drugs in America is very controversial and the ranking does not always align with the current scientific research regarding the danger and abuse potential of the substances.

          Pharmaceutical Adderall is either a pill made of compressed powder (often colored and stamped with a label like “30” to show dose in milligrams) or a capsule often of orange color with orange beads inside the capsule. The tablets made of powder are often single doses where the drugs full effects are felt within 1 hour. Meanwhile, capsules with beads are often extended release which means the drug is swallowed and slowly releases the amphetamine into the blood stream over 6 to 12 hours. Adderall is often abused by crushing the bead capsules or pills then snorted (sniffed) for the effects to hit all at once instead of 6 to 12 hours.

            Snorting Adderall causes a rush of euphoria and energy because snorting a drug is felt much faster than a swallowed pill. It is extremely dangerous and damaging to snort pills. Since Adderall contain 5 to 20 milligrams of amphetamine the pill is majority fillers and coloring agents not meant for going into the nose. Inhaling the filler powders can burn the nose and cause infection quite easily. These powders do not dissolve in the nose so they will block nasal passages and can harm the respiratory system. Furthermore, snorting amphetamines make them much more addictive because the quick effects of snorting over swallowing make the feeling stronger and hit faster.

Meth dosing

        Methamphetamine is often found in powder or crystalized form. Powder meth is often snorted, injected, swallowed in capsules. Whereas crystal meth is not snorted because it severely cuts and tears the inside of the nose. Crystal can be smoked, melted then injected, or swallowed. Due to meth being illegal and not created by a regulated company the ingredients in meth are unknown. It is recommended to swallow meth opposed to snorting, smoking, and definitely avoid injecting. Making meth includes using extremely toxic chemicals like strong acids, phosphorous and many dangerous chemicals that can damage your nose, lungs, and veins.

              It is extremely recommended to never do meth in any form but if you do meth it Is extremely recommended that swallowing an ACCURATELY WEIGHED small dose is the best way to avoid excess damage to internal organs. Administering meth in other ways than swallowing can lead to damage to nasal cavities, lungs, teeth, throat, and veins. The phrase “meth mouth” exists because people who smoke meth for a long time have severe tooth and gum damage. The actual methamphetamine drug itself does not cause mouth damage.  It is the toxic additives that are leftover from creating the drug.

How to remain safe using street Adderall

Street Adderall are very commonly counterfeited, laced with meth or other drugs, and can contain the wrong dose. These risks apply to Adderall pills not from a pharmacy / prescription. The rule of thumb is if you did not personally pick them up from the pharmacy with your prescription then you MUST assume they are counterfeit. Never believe a dealer that say they got them from a pharmacy even if they show you a prescription. Always assume a dealers drugs will be laced. Dealers and producers can buy amphetamine powder and a pill press machine from amazon to make pills that looks identical to a real pharmaceutical grade pill. Do not try to visually distinguish real from fake pills. Additionally, if you test your Adderall and it tests positive for the correct drug, you can never know how much of the drug is in the pill. Never blindly believe the pills label If its stamped “30” or “15” indicating the amount of milligrams. Counterfeit dealers often press an incorrect amount of the amphetamine powder into the pill. There is not a test to determine how strong the pill is so after reagent testing the pill, it is recommended to swallow 10% of the pill to gauge how strong it is.

      Counterfeit Adderall often contain no Adderall at all. Many pills are made with powdered methamphetamine mixed with colored pill binder and pressed into the shape and color of real pills. Dealers can make more money selling meth and calling it Adderall.

     If you get Adderall pills from anywhere besides a pharmacy with your prescription you MUST reagent test the drug to make sure your pills are not methamphetamine. Many websites sell the test kits can decipher Adderall from meth
