Obviously not good, I’m just being a little glib. If correctly dosed I suppose people would be getting a somewhat more effective medication than they thought they were getting. Those who were getting caffeine or ibuprofen, not so much.

Why do you think methamphetamine would be more effective than amphetamines?

Higher potency, longer duration of action.

If your goal was to get inebriated (drinking), would everclear be more effective than vodka?

I was thinking of user surveys. There was a Slate Star Codex/Astral Codex Ten article that goes through different ADHD medications, and those who take Desoxyn report being happier with their medications performance. The article notes all the reasons to be skeptical, but there is some reason to believe meth is a better ADHD drug than Adderall.
