Call me a cynic, and a grumpy one at that, but this could do to the amphetamines what benzos did to the barbs-- make it so very few doctors end up prescribing amphetamines, so those remaining patients who prefer it or only respond to it will have a tough time getting it as the narrowing scope of amphetamine sales allow the DEA to zone in the few remaining doctors who primarily end up treating it.
Or it could just be used now and then when docs can get away it with... I'm not good at predicting. Sure ,it might work on me, but I'm doubtful as well as Adderall or Dex does. Amphetamines will always remain the gold standard, even if it becomes like saying "Seconal" or something 10 years from now to ask for it.
