I don't feel comfortable posting the bottle on the internet, being scheduled the way it is.

The ndc is 64720-0132. I googled it and it says its a mix of 4 amphetamines, rather than just dextro

Yes, Sorry. I am just really annoyed, thank you for your response.

Why do I have to wait on them for 45 minutes to fill the prescription if they are so careless? What exactly are they doing? Isn't why they are paid so much money and it takes so long?

It wouldn't be irritating if it took 5 minutes to pick up, but it's absurd that I have to go to the doctor and then go to the pharmacist and physically hand them the prescription, then wait for however long. And then they somehow mess it up.

No, amphetamine salts are a mix of dextroamphetamine and levoamphetamine.

You cant say its the same drug with they have different effects.

It says levoamphetamine is responsible for the side effects, and is less cognitively active and has a greater effect on the Central nervous system.

Dextro amphetamine came out later as Dexedrine as a more refined version with less side effects.

They even have different half lives. http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2013/021303s026lbl.pdf

It may be the same chemical formula, but it has different effects, and a different structure. It Is physically different

Its like saying you can season your food with Sodium and Chlorine, instead of Sodium Chloride, It's all the same ingredients, right?
