Amphetamines and Meth

Amphetamines are stimulant drugs that can increase energy, focus, and alertness. Some amphetamines are prescribed for medical reasons, but misuse can quickly lead to dependence and serious health risks. Methamphetamine (or meth) is a powerful and highly addictive form of amphetamines that can cause rapid changes to the brain and body.

This section explores how stimulant drugs affect the body, including signs of use, side effects, withdrawal, and treatment options. If stimulant use has become a concern for you or someone close to you, help is available.
