Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) is an amphetamine, belonging to the group of medicines called central nervous system stimulants, it is a Schedule II controlled substance. Dexedrine was often used in the late 60s and early 70s as a prescription diet aid, because one of the effects of such stimulant drugs is to suppress appetite. Dexedrine (and its more potent cousin Benzedrine) was also commonly (and illegally) used by college students, either for the stimulant high it provided or as a study aid. Dexedrine is highly addictive. Individuals form an addiction to Dexedrine due to its ability to sustain energy and lose weight.
