Amphetamines similar to meth first came to America in the 1930s. Abuse of amphetamine sulfate (Benzedrine) and dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) pills became prevalent during the 50s and 60s. These simulant medications were commonly prescribed by physicians, primarily for weight loss at which point they begin to be diverted to the illicit market.
Meth use causes damage to the users physically, mentally and socially. They experience severe problems with their health, their emotional wellbeing and their interpersonal relationships with friends and family.
