The Amphetamine Epidemic provides a comprehensive and in-depth examination of one of the most pressing public health crises of the 21st century. This book delves into the rise, spread, and devastating impact of amphetamine use and abuse, shedding light on the social, economic, and medical implications of this global phenomenon. Part The Rise of Amphetamines The book traces the origins of amphetamines, which were first synthesized in the late 19th century, and their gradual integration into various medical treatments and military use during World War II. As the pharmaceutical industry evolved, so did the availability and accessibility of amphetamines, leading to their widespread prescription for medical conditions like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. As prescription rates skyrocketed, the unintended consequences of overprescribing and diversion began to surface. Readers will explore the alarming escalation of amphetamine abuse and the development of illegal manufacturing and distribution networks. Moreover, the book examines the societal impact, including the strain on healthcare systems, the criminal justice system, and the overall economic burden.
