I've recently synthesized some amphetamine and I am taking it for work. However, the doses that are required (~25mg) are pretty small and necessitate taking out my more accurate scale to weight this, every morning. And my friend that I gave some to has the same issues. It's just a bit of a hassle and I'm trying to find a way to just make pills or capsules if possible.
What I want to do is something similar to how the pharmaceutical companies deal with this - they add a bunch of filler to it to make the pills easier to handle. But where as they can spend millions of dollars being absolutely sure each pill contains 25mg of product, I would need to find a way to do it on a much cheaper salary.
What I was thinking was finding a filler agent that was soluble in alcohol, then dissolve both the filler agent and amphetamine in alcohol, and evaporate to dryness under vacuum. Now I have a powder that I know has something like 25mg of amphetamine for every 250mg of powder.
I know some of you might just say something like "just put some filler (lactose, dextros, etc) and some amphetamine in a ball mill, turn it on, and you have a mixture". But I'm not sure that's really the best way. I can't guarantee that each size of amphetamine and filler molecule is the same, thus I cant guarantee that each portion of the mixture will contain the same amount of amphetamine.
Does anyone here have a good solution? I would really prefer the liquid co-solubility approach. Does anyone know of a good filler thats soluble in alcohol at around the same ranges that amphetamine is? That would be a HUGE help.
Thank you.
