Stimulants 30mg dextroamphetamine = 0.55g cocaine

[IslandBoy]

I've been taking 45 mg Dexedrine Spansules for a long time. I know the effect of dex resembles cocaine except cocaine you get a rush in 2-3 minutes but after 1.25 hrs after my Dexedrine spansules you really can't differentiate the two. In university 30 mg of immediate release Dexedrine = 0.55 grams of cocaine in subjects not tolerant to amphetamines. I can beleive this equidosage if cocaine was spread out over 4 hours the same hallf life of dex! What is your opinion to this equivalency?

First off, I personally don't find cocaine to be anything like amps. I take 40mg IR adderall daily and have a lot of experience with D-amp. If anything is similar to cocaine, it would be meth-amp, only because of how quickly it crossess the BBB.

How do you expect anyone to answer this with authority? Cocaine doesn't come in standardized pills.

Imo, .55grams of pure cocaine is FAR stronger than 30mg of d-amp.

Maybe if your cocaine is 70% flour.

I got this equivalency from an article in The British Journal of Medicine

No shit I discovered this in a medical journal

Yeah, it's not really possible for anyone to give good answers simply for this reason.

How was the 0.55g even administered? Orally?

OP are you comparing 30mg amphetamine to a half gram of blow? That must be a typo or you're getting some of the shittiest blow available IMO...

Plus blow has a stronger binding affinity to receptors then amphetamines do, they are both uppers but not related. One is natural the other is man made, one last an hour the other last 12 hours. There really not similar at all.

Actually, amphetamine is not a man-made chemical. It is man-made in the sense that it is synthesized, but it originates in nature, so it is not exclusively man-made.

Unless you can directly cite the article that this came from, I don't see how this thread can go anywhere but endless speculation.

PM me if you find the article and would like to re-open this.
