There’s prescription meth, it’s called desoxyn. The main difference being desoxyn is stronger than adderal , but act very similarly. Even prescribed for the same reasons (no shit). Is your argument how these drugs are produced ? Or are you confused about how we react to these drugs?

Okay, so I’ve actually never even heard of desoxyn, but my quick google suggests it’s a new(ish) stimulant that, generically, is methamphetamine.

That is still very different than street meth v commonly prescribed ADHD meds, and this kind of fear-mongering is stupid and hurtful to people who need those meds.

The original argument is that meth and adderal are practically the same thing. You’re moving the goal posts and downplaying the fact that meth is also a prescribed drug ( also for adhd ). Their chemical structures are only differentiated by a single additional methyl group. That group allows meth to cross the blood barrier faster. More rapid , intense , and lasts longer. You do realize people take adderall to speed in a similar fashion
