No. This is a myth that has been passed along by drug addicts that have been trying to find unique ways of getting the necessary ingredients for illegal drugs like methamphetamine, also commonly known as crystal meth.

Medicated salt licks contain minerals and vitamins that are needed for a cow's normal productivity that are not found in or contain very small amounts in feed or in the grass/soil that are not enough to satisfy a cow's macromineral/micromineral needs. Such salt licks or loose salt mixes are not used on just cows, they are also great for young growing cattle like feeder/stocker steers/heifers, replacement heifers, young bulls, and mature bulls that have just come off of breeding season and need to gain some weight back that was lost during the time he was needed to chase after those frisky, horny cows. As for ephedrine salt licks, they don't exist.
