>After Buying all patent rights to Amphetamines in 1932, SKF then released the non-script Speed driven 'Benzedrine' levo-Amphetamine, nasel inhaler. It worked like a charm, and felt good too. It took less than a few minutes for some to break the thing open and suck out the insides. Jack Kerouac was amoung many who broke them open and swished the speed-impregnated paper strip into his Coffee-nice buzz. SKF stopped making this inhaler in 1949.
The next two decades saw Smith-Kline-French put their L and D Amphetamine to endless uses and combined with many other Drugs:
-Eskatrol Dexedrine and Compazine
-Appetrol Dex and Miltown
-Edrisal Benzedrine and Aspirin-1948
-Ambar Methamphetamine and Phenobarbital-not SKF
-Thoradex Thorazine and Dex (no kiding)
-Benzabar Benzadrine and Phenobarbital
-Miltrate Miltown and Pent, Tranqualiser- not SKF
-Miltown and Estrogen -not SKF
-Prozine Miltown and Promazine anxiety-not SKF
-Milpath Miltown and Tridihexethyl iodide-anxiety and ulcer-not SKF
-Deprol Miltown and Benactyzine, depression-not SKF
-Carbrital Pentobarbital and Carbromal-Bromide, sleep-not SKF
-Eskabarb Benzadrine SR SpansualAnd I'm sure there were more.
