[Drug abuse and dependence of the amphetamine type with special regard to Amphetaminil (Aponeuron(R))].
In 1974 amphetaminil was included in the class of addictives or habit-forming drugs, although prescription of the drug is not requiring adherence to strict requirements. Whereas reports of abuse of, and addiction to, amphetaminil have been published in foreign countries since 1967, it was not considered a habit-forming drug in the G.D.R. Observations made by the author and his associates show that this may not be true; abuse of, and addiction to, this particular drug are possible in this country, too. The concern of this paper is to call the reader's attention to possible addiction to amphetamine type drugs. Prescription of amphetamines should always be with caution in order to prevent abuse. It is recommended that careful consideration be given to the question of limiting the amount of amphetaminil to be prescribed.
