Methamphetamine (dem contract from N-methylamphetamine) be a potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulant wey dem mainly use as a recreational anaa performance-enhancing drug den less commonly as a second-line treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Na dem sanso research am as a potential treatment for traumatic brain injury.Rau T, Ziemniak J, Poulsen D (January 2016). "The neuroprotective potential of low-dose methamphetamine in preclinical models of stroke and traumatic brain injury". Progress in Neuro-psychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry. 64: 231–236. doi:10.1016/j.pnpbp.2015.02.013. ISSN 0278-5846. PMID 25724762. Na dem discover Methamphetamine insyd 1893 wey e dey exist as two enantiomers: levo-methamphetamine den dextro-methamphetamine. Methamphetamine properly dey refer to a specific chemical substance, de racemic free base, wich be an equal mixture of levomethamphetamine den dextromethamphetamine insyd dema pure amine forms, buh de hydrochloride salt, dem commonly call crystal meth, dem widely be used. Methamphetamine be rarely prescribed over concerns wey dey involve ein potential for recreational use as an aphrodisiac den euphoriant, among oda concerns, as well as de availability of safer substitute drugs plus comparable treatment efficacy such as Adderall den Vyvanse. While pharmaceutical formulations of methamphetamine insyd de United States be labeled as methamphetamine hydrochloride, dem dey contain dextromethamphetamine as de active ingredient. Dextromethamphetamine be a stronger CNS stimulant dan levomethamphetamine.

Methamphetamine dey belong to de substituted phenethylamine den substituted amphetamine chemical classes. E dey relate to de oda dimethylphenethylamines as a positional isomer of dese compounds, wich dey share de common chemical formula C10H15N.
