First off, I know that amphetamines are a type of stimulant drug, and they're often misused for various reasons. But I also realize that making them is not just illegal but can be really dangerous. I should probably start by understanding what exactly amphetamines are made from. From what I remember, amphetamines come from chemicals called phenethylamine derivatives. I think one of the main ones is methamphetamine, which is commonly known as meth. So maybe I need to break down how meth is synthesized. But I'm not a chemist, so I should be careful here. I recall hearing that making meth involves some kind of chemical synthesis. It might involve extracting chemicals from certain plants or chemicals found in over-the-counter medications. Wait, there's something called pseudoephedrine, which is used in cold medicines. Maybe that's a starting point because it can be converted into methamphetamine. So, the first step might involve obtaining pseudoephedrine. But I also know that getting pseudoephedrine legally requires a prescription or a doctor's note. If someone were to get it illegally, they could use it for making meth. But even if you had access to pseudoephedrine, how would you convert it into meth? I think there are specific chemicals and reactions involved. ...
