Common mistake, but no. It's DexaDRIN that is similar to Ritalin, it's perscription. I've never taken Ritalin, but I used Dex for a night of intense midterm cramming, and it worked pretty well. Kept me focused on work till about six in the morning. Yeh, so don't go wastin' yer money on Dexatrim, hell, that doesn't even work fer weight loss, much less any other highs...

dexadrine (dextroamphetamine) is the stuff you want, but it's a prescription item... I had a few caps of it over the summer and would love to get my hands on some again. speedy, speedy, speedy! weeeeeeeeeeeee!
the only thing that comes close are thermogenic formulas like thermadrene or xenadrene (sp?), which contain things like ephedrine (in the form of Ma Huang), guarana seed, caffeine, aspirin, cayenne pepper, ginger root, and sometimes L-Carnatine or Ginseng, too.
thermogenics are good for bodybuilding, losing weight, extra energy, mental alertness, and of course having a lot of fun w/
I've found that I start feeling the effects about an hour or so into taking one, peak around the 2:30-3:00 hour, then need another when the 4th hour comes around if I want to stay up.
you should try not to take them too often, else you'll develop a tolerance to them and you'll be putting yourself at risk for racing up your heart rate... my bottle of thermadrene states "the maximum recommended dosage of ephadrine for a healthy adult is 100 mg in a 24-hour period for not more than 12 weeks." each cap of thermadrene contains 20 mg of ephedrine.
you can also buy ephedra in health food/vitamin stores... I was in heaven the other day when I went to the new Vitamin Shoppe that opened up near my flat when I saw walls of thermogenics, ephedra, L-Carnatine, Guarana Seed, and Ginseng all in the same area, all at 30% off! I also noticed they sell bags and bags of empty clear gelcaps in varying sizes, for those of you who might need to know such things...
yay vitamins

Ephedra (ma huang) is a pretty dirty chemical and is not easily metabolized by your body, so it's best to avoid it when possible. Most 7-11 type trucker packets will contain it, so read your labels.
If you want a good herbal concoction, mix the following: 500 mg Guarana, 100 Ginko Biloba, 500 mg Gotu Kola, some Ginseng, and some Kava Kava. That makes one dose, multiply for additional doses or for other people. If you want more energy, double the Guarana.
Don't bother buying the Red Bull type drinks that contain these, they usually have 5-10% of threshold doses. Buy these in pill form from you local pharmacy.
I bought a mortar and pestle from my local chinese hardware store, and now i crush these pills and pour them into gelatin capsules or i just put the powder in a drink and get herbalized.
Try it like this, don't go overboard, use it to replace harsher substances, lock into the vibe, dance, be safe, and spread the word.

At the end of the movie? When she's talkin to the drug dealer? I'm almost 99% sure that after he asks her what she's on, she says "Ginseng and Dexatrim". I could be wrong, but I'm also pretty sure that it wasn't Vivarin. Anyway, I was just curious as to how much of these legal things you had to take to get a buzz!
OK That's all.
