> The UK has a real problem with the abuse of amphetamine provided by illicit sources. It seems far worse there than in the USA. Perhaps this motivates the search for neurotoxicity. I would just like to see more evidence and more discussion before scaring the hell out of people.
>From first hand accounts of users in the UK the amphetamine is very subpar and meth is pretty much non-existant as is any substantial quanity of dexedrine. Neurotoxic effects of the amphetamine available may be the result of impurities created during production.
I've heard recently though that research chemicals such as MDPV (Methylenedioxypyrovalerone) and Methylone (2-methylamino-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)propan-1-one)
have gained popularity as grey market stimulants and they may result in damage being attributed to amphetamine as absolutely nothing is known about they substances beyond initial research.The UK also always has a plentiful supply of cheap and pure MDMA given its proximity to holland.
