WHAT IS SPEED?




  • Speed (amphetamine or methamphetamine) is a central nervous stimulant of the phenethylamine family.

  • Amphetamine was first synthesized in 1887, and methamphetamine in 1893.

  • Amphetamines have been used for the treatment of various medical conditions since the 1930s, and were widely used by soldiers in both the Allied and Axis forces during WWII to increase stamina and reduce the need for sleep on the battlefield.
