FractalStructure said:Btw, what is the point of the different salts in adderall? Yes, i know its ~72% dexamph (the two pure dexamph salts and two racemic salts). I dont mean "why do they have d/l-amph in there as opposed to just dexamph, what im saying is why not just have all of them as the same sulfate salt, etc? as far as i know it makes no difference, but i could be wrong.
^I have heard this was only done to patent the drug, but that may have been a rumor.
I myself cannot understand the different salts. Why not just 25% l-amphetamine sulphate and 75% d-amphetamine sulphate?
Btw. It was marketed as "Obitrol" (Obisity Control),a new weight-loss pill at the time(1965).It was taken off the shelves and re-marketed as a new ADD/ADHD drug,Adderall.
