Biphetamine Treatment (Page 3)
(Newest replies first)

Originally used for weight reduction--it is available for treatment of ADD. I was originally prescribed it for the former, but found it more effective for treatment of ADD than other drugs such as ADDERALL. If not currently available through your company, can you provide sufficient information for pharmacists to formulate this.

This site is bull, most of the hits on this site are employed
by the DEA or local police departments. No bad vibe, everyone needs to work.
So much real crime out there.

Fisons Corporation made biphetamines until 1998. After that, they were no more.

I REMEMBER BIPHETAMINE 20 AND I NEVER KNEW THAT I HAD ADHD. I JUST REMEMBER THE ONLY TIME I EVER FELT OKAY WAS WHEN I TOOK BIPHETAMINES. NOW I AM BEING TREATED FOR ADHD AND THEY HAVE DISCONTINUED THE ONLY DRUG THAT REALLY WORKED: BIPHETAMINE. THE STREETS ARE FLOODED WITH OXYCONTIN, KILLING KIDS EVERY DAY! ALOT OF DRUGS ARE ABUSED..WHY TAKE BIPHETAMINES AWAY???

I worked for the OTC side of Pennwalt in the 70's. The Pennwalt Presc rep gave me some Black Beauties from his samples. Oh boy. Was cooking for 36 hrs +. Had mucho energy. Wanted to paint the house, paint the car, paint the neighbor's stuff. Good pharmaceutical grade speed. Easy to get use to. Story was the bi-phets were an offshoot of an anti-fatigue drug used by WW II pilots/soldiers. A side-effect was loss of appetite and the greedy drug companies spun it into a weight loss medicine. Pennwalt folded, terribly mismanaged. Glad they bit the dust.

Treated for ADD for 30 yrs. Most of that time, we used desoxyn as I couldn't tolerate the over stimulation from dexedrine, adderall. Ritalin and focalin just aren't very effective. I got to use biphetamines before I was diagnosed with ADD. There ain't nothing like it on the market today. So my question is there any compounding pharmacies that'll make it?

Bradden hit it right on the head. That has been my question for years. I have been treated for ADD, and my God what a difference it's made. However in late 2005 my medication started making me irritable and nervous. I had used desoxyn for approximately 25 of thoe 30 years, and there'd never been any of those kind of problems. Years ago, I'd had a chance to take those bi-phetamines, and they were so smooth. So for the last several years I've been looking for the biphetamines. Is there any chance a compounding pharmacy would/ or could make these? Or even just the old benzedrine? You obviously know what you're talking about it so any advice you could provide me would be very appreciated. Thank so very very much

Yes these drugs were abused but now as many or more are abused and they didn't take those off the shelf. I long for the 70's or even 80's...But I disagree, yours was not the best drug, the best was the real 70's PRELUDIN..Pink round tablet, nothing better before or after in my book.

Sure.I remember dexamyl. Not many people cared for this compond. The Biphetamine-q, never heard of it. Was it sold in pharmacys or distributed directly by
physicans like 697's and RP's.

So I flunked spelling. Do you remember Biphetamine-q? It was a compound of 10/10 plus 90mgs of methaquaalone. Really! Sort of like dexamyl. rember that?

Biphetamine rocked. A single 20mg. cap kept the night wide awake well into morning, ONE!

Tomsapsford,
I can not answer that question.
The word definatively does not exist.

Hence it's potential for use/abuse. Where are you, definatively?

Bradan hit it right on the head.
Pennwalt manufactured this drug
up until 1976. I handled thousands
of these pills in my teens right
through college. They are the original Black Beauties. Nothing
better was ever sold to date.

Adderall (notice the first 3 letters) actually has 4 differnt isometric amphphetamine compounds; only one or which is associated with the euphoria that drives it's recreational useage. Origanally marketed in the 60's under the name Obetrol, Shire was able to gain the patent for it's application in the treatment of ADD. I hate drug companies and thier patent protection schemes. Amphetamines are as easy and cheap to produce as aspirin. But I applaud Shire for it's ability to remove the stigma attached to amphetamines and open a whole new world for many people; myself included.

I had Biphetamine as late as 1986. They were very powerful. But after '86 I never saw them again.

ADDERAL is not, IS NOT the same drug as BIPHETAMINE. Biphetamine was discontinued back in the mid seventies due to all the abuse and trademark/patent issues. Pennwalt simply stopped manufacturing them. Biphetamine is the same as dexidrine(Dextroamphetamine), but it was a dextroamphetamine RESIN. They came in black, black and white and white capsules. 20 mg. 12mg.and 7mg.'s respectively. All the problems from abuse to misrepresentation and bootlegs led the federal government to ban them altogetherback in 1976. Although Adderall may have a few mg.s of Biphetamine mixed in with it's XR formula, this does not make adderall BIPHETAMINE! Far from it. Adderall is a cocktail of ritalin. Basic Amphetamine, dextroamphetamines and a dash of biphetamine, hardly enough to notice. Anyone that has once used Biphetamine will surley tell you that nothing comes close to the strength and smooth stealth of a real Biphetaminel Many would like to see them come back.

I was hopin to find an article I could site the next time I talked to doc about this. I can't remember what journal I read. I need a longer acting med than Adderall and can't afford Vyanase. Even on 20 mg. of Addderall t.i.d., I don't ever get shaky. After reading the article, I thought I found the solution. The guy looked at me like I had three heads when I related what I had read to ask is opinion. I kept tellilng him the info was in the medical literature, knowing he had access while I did not - to no avail. If anyone can site a particular article or journal for that matter, please respond. I thank you in advance for your help in ths matter.

It is the exact same thing as Adderall, just a different brand name, so if you are taking Adderall, you will not achieve any difference by switching to this and there will be no difference to your treatment.

i noticed a comment from 2005 indicated that biphetmines were presdribed for ADD. is anyone out there being given this instead of Adderall ,etc? what dose? how often? do you or your physician know of any articles - recent - on the subject? i just moved to virginia beach, and the four docs i've seen so far look at me like i have three heads when i mention just Adderall. from the little i do know and remember from l-o-n-g ago in grad school, biphetamenes (30mg.) seems to work better than 2 or3 dose of an Adderall-type med. please reply. thanks.
