It’s literally FDA approved for weight loss.

Methamphetamine (desoxyephedrine) was first approved in 1943 by the FDA for treating narcolepsy, mild depression, postencephalitic Parkinson syndrome, chronic alcoholism, cerebral arteriosclerosis, and hay fever. Later, in 1947, methamphetamine was also approved as the first drug for treating obesity.

I love that it was used for alcoholism. I see how, treating adhd helps with that, but still.

Anecdotal evidence (seeing a couple of methheads) says it works.
For weight loss at least, doesn’t mean you will look good, just thin.
