Hi, Drexxie.
Desoxyn (d-methamphetamine) stands out among the psychostimulants in that it has the lowest ratio of peripheral to central effects. This means it's less likely than other stimulants to cause a lot of the common side effects of this class of drugs.

Heh. I know *exactly* what you mean.
> Apparently, this drug is still being manufactured, but some pharmacies (according to 2 of the ~50, pharmacists with which I've spoken to the previous 2 days) only do business with certain manufacturers.
The way it works is, the pharmacy orders the drugs from a wholesaler who orders them from the manufacturer. I've had trouble getting buprenorphine (which isn't normally carried in retail pharmacies) in the past because a lot of wholesalers don't carry it.
> Consequently, I have to find a pharmacy which does business with a manufacturer who distrubutes the 15 mg. Gradumet (or 25 mg. gradument- preferred by pdoc). This is like adding a nightmare to a nightmare.
I'd say it's more like adding a pain to an ass. :-)
Take care. I hope you're able to get your medicine.
