From wikipedia:
but now it is rarely prescribed, due to concerns of misuse and addiction.
Sounds like its a diet amphetamine and in my experience our Healthcare professionals only like prescribing amphetamines to rambunctious children and teens./s

You can buy any pill you want on the internet as long as you don't mind a little fentanyl in your pills lol
What's a little fentanyl amongst friends?
All this makes me think is that it was

- too little pesky side effects
- little chance or killing or severely bodily/psychically maiming you in the absence of a drs supervision
I seem to recall there being serious side effects for some people, though it was widly effective for weight loss.
