How bizarre- they don't prescribe stuff like dexedrine, ritalin, adderall, etc in the UK?

Well, even here in the US they are just one class away from being illegal. You need a new, signed paper script each month, (no phoning it in to the pharmacy), no "refills" allowed, gotta show your driver's liscence, etc.

Hey, I read in Atkins' nutrition book that acytyl-L-carnetine and L-phenylalanine are vaguely similar to stimulants- at least that's how he makes them sound.

So your GP would have to prescribe it off label. I got one of my previous GPs to prescribe it for me. It was okay, but I developed a rash on it, so I stopped it.
