Whey does meth dilate your pupils while amphetamine does not? Even when I've done a large does of amphetamine with zero tolerance, and am flying I still have minimal to zero pupil dilation.


Also, does a low "therapeutic dose of meth" dilate the pupils. Lets say 10 mg, or dose that would feel equivalent to 30 mg of amphetamine/adderall?

I mean since meth is prescribed for narcolepsy and obesity in 10 mg tablents, does it still have this pupil effect? or is this only at high/recreational doses of meth?
 
Mydriasis can occur on pretty much all the stimulants, including amphetamines. However on a low therapeutic dose, you're unlikely to experience it since there's still some balance between parasympathetic/sympathetic nervous system.

Between individuals, however, you're bound to see different reactions to different doses and drugs. Personally I rarely get mydriasis on any dose of anything except high-dose ephedrine.
