Carol, lax, thanks. Well its 6am and im at work waiting for the guys to arrive so i can grade their pt test. To answer the question about "speed" to troops. No i have not been given this however in my line of work i can prescribe it to my guys/self. Ive never taken the medication in question. I do know how it works and can tell you it is NOT your typical amphetamine nor does it act like one. You get none of the effects we all look for other than the ability to be approximately 25% more awake and alert for 8-12 hrs following taking it. The military went away from amphetamines in the late 80's. Ok all that aside, time to work. Have a good day guys.
