if i understand correctly, its just dex bound with lyseine. Nothing special. This drug kind of struck me as an utter waste of time--however, odds are, even if its schedule II, and crazy expensive (especially versus generic dex), docs will probably rx it as if its something new and amazing. Prescription drug markets don't seem to follow the normal patterns that demand some sort of innovation or...something.
Still, it'd be nice if the FDA would schedule III a "real" stim. I mean, Didrex is schedule III, but its a diet pill, so no one really thinks to use it for much...if they'd just relax things on ritalin or some other stim, then I feel like more people who might benefit (people on pain killers, lethargic depressives) might be able to get ahold of helpful meds.
