Jeez, are you saying the UK has medical liquid Dexedrine? (I thought the UK had only 5mg IR Dexamphetime) I have never known this, and thought it went the way of many pre 1970 Amphetamine meds.
I know of Methadone (MMT), used for pain relief, and Opiate replacement for junkies.
I am guessing Dex elixer would be used for substitute Amphetamine abusers? Alcoholics?
Do you know?
Cheers
PS---I'm sure the UK has Methamphetamine-just not in Pharmacies mmmmmmm ;)
