Hi, I am one of those very lucky people who has add and hence a prescription for 20 mg of Dexedrine every day. My add symptoms, as I have limbic add, a rare form that causes childhood depression and instead of not being able to concentrate I hyperfocus on things I enjoy doing and ignore what I don’t want to do. I’m a programmer and I love it so I can work without daily doses of my favourite drug.
Every week I was taking a week’s worth of Dexedrine, 28 x 5 mg pills and it works great. I have been looking for ways to stretch my usage further and came across DMSO (DiMethylSulfOxide), a solvent, non toxic which is used in veterinary medicine as a horse liniment and can easily be ordered. It has 3 interesting properties first it changes the ibutenic acid in amanita muscaria into the psychoactive ingredient muscimol, second when rubbed on sore muscles it is probably the best painkiller that doesn’t contain morphine, and third anything you mix with it gets absorbed by your skin so you don’t want to have handcream on when you apply it to a sore back.
So, I just decided to experiment, I crushed a half dozen 5 mg tabs in a mortar and pestle and added 5 ml DMSO. As a solvent it dissolved dye, filler, and the Dexedrine and I applied it to my skin and also happened to take 1000 mg of Piracetan, a nootropic that potentiates Dexedrine a wee bit also. The effect was just like my taking the whole 28 tabs even though I’ve already been up 48 hours since taking Dexedrine yesterday. Everything, mood, energy etc. is right on track. The DMSO bottle said causes skin irritation but the itchieness quickly subsided and the effect on the skin is way less than the itch from Heet Lineament.
My next experiment is taking a very very tiny dose of Syrian Rue with a very very tiny dose of Dexedrine, the two together interact excessively, even a half dose of each is a severe health risk, to see if the combination is Dexedrinelike or seriously unpleasant, I’ll start with 1 gram of Syrian Rue and 5 mg of Dexedrine, my heart and blood pressure are good so that I can weather any hypertensive crisis, Syrian Rue contains Harmaline which is an MAOI (Mono Amine Oxidase Inhibitor) which prevents the brain from performing its serotonin and dopamine reuptake and Dexedrine causes extra dopamine to be released into the brain, if both are at full strength the result could be fatal. MAOI’s also interact with most serotonin boosting medication like Zyprexa, Wellbutrin, or Effexor and with foods that contain chemicals like Tryptophan, things like tuna and aged cheese can cause a hypertensive reaction. Never, ever, start using a drug without researching the side-effects, interactions, and the effect on body and brain chemistry. If more people did that we might still be going to see Jimmy Hendrix in concert.
