I have just recently found im able to acquire both desoxyn and dexadrine but im skeptical as to which one i should try first. Desoxyn really interests me because i know it is supposedly pharmaceutical grade methamphetamine pretty much, and about 5 years ago I went down to Atlanta to visit family and I find out my cousin is pretty much addicted to this shit so I gave it a try (at that time in my life i was down to try anything once). To this day I will have to say that week i was down there experimenting with it was one of the most interesting times of my life, i talked about EVERYTHING ive ever had on my mind. My cousin is a picky fuck and he assured me it was extremely pure and i didnt doubt it just because i know the way he is (wont smoke weed unless its headies ect.) When i came back to NY I never sought it out because i know it was one of those things you cant just weekend warrior, at least in my case and i'm sure i would have gotten addicted to it. So if any one has had any experience with either desoxyn or dexadrine could you please compare it to adderall because i have had alot of experience with adderall. And ive had other people tell me what my guy has isnt desoxyn due to the fact its rarely prescribed but i did a pill id check on it and its 100% legit.
 
desoxyn=methamphetamine
dexedrine=dextroamphetamine
adderall=racemic mixture of amphetamine

So d-amp is like a refined (and more potent) version of adderall. Meth will be even stronger but is more dangerous.
 
^ I would assume it couldn't be THAT dangerous seeing it is a prescribed pharm.....i thought they might manipulated the meth chemical to maybe make it safer? But i guess when you think about it methamphetamine is methamphetamine....id still like to find some one with experience with it. Im quite curious as to what it like.
 
^I thought you took it for a week before?

The extremely toxic chemical ethanol comes to mind. :D
It is true though that you don't have to worry about adulterants which is nice.
 
Actually, methamphetamine and dextroamphetamine are equipotent - 5 mg of d-amp = 5 mg of m-amp. It's just that m-amp's effects are slightly more pronounced at equal doses with more peripheral effects also.
 
I have edited the title of this thread for easier searching, including the generic names for Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine) and Desoxyn (methamphetamine).
 
I have been prescribed both and cannot discern a difference between the two. If you were to blindfold me and hand me 5-10 mg's of each, I would be hard pressed to tell you which was which.

If you don't have insurance, Dexedrine is still fairly cheap. Desoxyn on the other hand is extremely expensive without insurance. If money is not an issue, do a trial and error with both and see which one works better for you.

Although, sounds like you're simply using these drugs for rec. purposes...if that's the case, Desoxyn in higher doses is supposedly more enjoyable. I have always taken therapeutic doses; for studying purposes. Don't really want to advocate abuse of either drug, especially if you have an addictive personality. If you truly know yourself, maybe it's best to stay away from either one.

Reread your post. You are right. Desoxyn is rarely prescribed and I mean rarely. It carries around its stigma and will never be able to shake it. That being said, it's not improbable to find it somewhere. Dexedrine and Desoxyn are better than Adderall in terms of being cleaner, i.e, less side effects or stimuli on the rest of your body while you're on them.

Cheers

Although, both are 'cleaner' than Adderall - I have heard that Dexedrine has less peripheral side effects than Desoxyn, so it's 'cleaner'. I have heard many say Dexedrine is better than Desoxyn. I'm on Dexedrine, but I have never tried Desoxyn. I've tried street crystal meth and found it to be much more euphoric than pretty much any drug I've tried - however, morphine/heroin are a very close second.
 
Kokaino, that's quite interesting that people prefer Dexedrine over Desoxyn. I'm somewhat surprised because Desoxyn has 0 peripheral side effects for me. I realize that everyone reacts to drugs differently but I am absurdly sensitive to stimulates so I notice the smoothness, so to speak. As mentioned, I prefer Dexedrine or Desoxyn, as opposed to Adderall, which causes major body load issues for me.
 
^ Well both stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, but methamphetamine does so more intensely - so there tends to be more peripheral action with meth than with dextro. Meth increases body temperature at lower doses than dextro does, it also causes a higher heart rate, higher blood pressure, etc.

I've never done Desoxyn, but this is the case with street meth, and meth is meth is meth, right? So I'm assuming this would be the same with Desoxyn.

So they are equipotent with respect to what? I've never tried them myself but you go on to say that m-amp is more euphoric, more potent at the same dose, more PNS side effects, etc.
 
I am currently scripted Adderall, but have had experience with both Dexedrine and street meth.

I find that Dexedrine is much smother and has less negative side effects compared to mixed amphetamine salts (which I think is at least ¼ Dexedrine if not ½ including both isomers, but not 100% sure).

Just from my experience with street meth and Dexedrine I think that for daily therapeutic use I would choose the Dexedrine as it just seems to be so smooth and lacks the hard crash that I have experienced with meth.

Now for recreational use I would choose the Meth, but Amps are really not my thing and if I do not have something to help me come down I will almost refuse to take them.

I'm not disagreeing with your statement but I think you should realize the intake/amount that one takes is correlated to higher heart rate, bp, etc.

Desoxyn is only prescribed in 5mg doses now a days. It use to be upwards of 15mg's, but that is no longer the case. If I am taking 10mg's of Desoxyn, that's an extremely low dose in the grand scheme of things. A street meth dose is probably 10 fold higher than that. Maybe, if I were taking upwards of 30mg's, I could understand the peripheral discomfort, but at 10mg's-20mg's, this is not the case.

As medications, they are equipotent - 5 mg of m-amp is equal to 5 mg of d-amp in terms of their effect on focus, attention, etc But meth tends to have more pronounced PNS effects at those doses than dextro does.

I haven't done Desoxyn myself (I've done street meth though), but I am on Dexedrine. They both come in 5 mg instant release tablets, but Dexedrine also comes in extended release forms.
 
This is an old thread but I going to bump it simply because it is important for anyone reading this to understand that street meth and Desoxyn are far from the same drug. Desoxyn is pharmaceutical grade d-meth whereas street meth is almost always a racemic mixture of d- and l- meth. Think of the difference between Dexedrine (d-amp) and Adderall (3 parts d-amp to one part l-amp). Street meth is typically half l-meth and half d-meth. Desoxyn will not give you the kick in the ass that street meth or even Adderall gives,
 
just wondering on a recreational standpoint, couldn't you just use a Vick's nasal inhaler combined with your desoxyn in order to supply the L isomer that many people claim is missing from the desoxyn high (when compared to actual street meth, that is)?

kinda similar to how some people think adderall is more euphoric than dexedrine, since dexedrine seems to be so clean you don't "feel" it as much without that L isomer being involved.
 
^^
i feel like it wouldn't be that complicated. a few trial and error experiments would suffice.
 
Do some people really feel the l-isomer make the drug more recreational?

In my experience Dexedrine is much better than Adderal as it does not have the negative side effects related to the l isomer in addies.

Addies make me feel much more anxious and jittery than straight dex.
