      Amphetamine was the original (safe) weight loss drug due to it increasing metabolism and suppressing appetite.

      Phentermine and fenfluramine are basically worse amphetamines to achieve a similar effect.

      The appetite suppression will be less noticeable for many people with ADHD because you could be forgetting to eat and then overeating later when you feel like you're starving
