      Fuck, they want to ban amphetamine-based prescription meds like in shitty authoritarian countries.

      P.S. There were more approved drugs in US than in any other country, including Adderall. Also, there are many drugs for multiple sclerosis treatment and they are actively developed in US to be even better. It saves the whole world, I mean, it improves people’s lives significantly (however, these medicines are very expensive).

      P.S. #2 A few years ago there was Wellbutrin (depression, ADHD, narcolepsy treatment. Innovative new drug) in Russia, and it was registered there officially by pharmacy company GfK, it’s manufacturer. Then they shut down production and it stopped being supplied to pharmacies. Then relatives of people who had narcolepsy, lived at that moment in Europe and they offered to bring this drug from Europe to those people in Russia. Then the drug was confiscated at customs and a case was opened against these people, allegedly Wellbutrin contains “drug derivatives”, although this is NOTHING written about Wellbutrin, and there are no substances in the composition that could indicate this, there are no such substances officially, even the manufacturer doesn’t mention it. It is clear that there is no justice in that country, and that these people could simply be put behind bars. Well, they “scared” people once again and soon released them. It’s was just recently. Such biased cases about “narcotic substances” are common here.

      And I assume, US is turning into Russia/China 2.0
