Abstract
Abuse of amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) poses a significant public health concern with known neurotoxic and neurocognitive effects to the user. In this chapter, we seek to integrate the latest research on ATS, particularly methamphetamine, by covering areas of pharmacology, neurocognitive effects, and the treatment of ATS use disorders with the goal of advancing the clinical neuroscience of ATS and highlighting avenues for future research.Entities:
