'Uppers' keep going up.

Hamid Ghodse.   

Abstract

Amphetamine-type stimulants are the second most widely used drugs in the world. Overprescription results in diversion for recreational use and the development of dependence. The internet plays a significant role in global misuse of amphetamine-type stimulants, permitting uncontrolled dispensing by online pharmacies and providing information on techniques for illicit manufacture.
