My only point in the hypothetical example is to show that some people do not get a favorible response from Dexedrine and the other stimulants and so having Desoxyn is important for them.
I am not making the argument that if Dexedrine works, you should take Desoxyn because it's better. Rather, I am stating the fact that there are people in whom nothing works but Desoxyn and they should have the option available.
I am also stating the fact that all drugs have costs associated with them and you are deceiving yourself if you think that simply because other medications are not "neurotoxic" they are some how obviously better than and safer than Desoxyn. They may be but it's not necessarily so.
Anyhow, why are you so hostile to Desoxyn. I am advocating it should be available to those who need. And no I have never taken it nor have I taken 20 times the normal dose of Dexedrine. That was to make a point - should we ban chemotherapy because it's toxic?
