Central nervous system stimulants are used to treat conditions characterized by lack of adrenergic stimulation, including narcolepsy and neonatal apnea. Additionally, methylphenidate (Ritalin) and dextroamphetamine sulfate (Dexedrine) are used for their paradoxical effect in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
The anerexiants, benzphetamine (Didrex), diethylpropion (Tenuate), phendimetrazine (Bontril, Plegine), phentermine (Fastin, Ionamine), and sibutramine (Meridia) are CNS stimulants used for appetite reduction in severe obesity. Although these drugs are structurally similar to amphetamine, they cause less sensation of stimulation, and are less suited for use in conditions characterized by lack of adrenergic stimulation.
Phenylpropanolamine and ephedrine have been used both as diet aids and as vasoconstrictors.
Yes. Stimulants and amphetamines are used in MANY medications. Amphetamines are used in ADHD medications, and both can be found in common cold medications. Even Methamphetamine is a prescription drug. Look it up. it's called desoxyn.

Amphetamines are a type of stimulant, similar to Methamphetamine. Other type are Ephedrine and Pseudoephedrine, they are much less potent than Amphetamines and are used for their bronchiolar properties. These are the type found in cold medications.
Cold medication contains no amphetamines what so ever. People often make this mistake because ephedrine and pseudoephedrine are pre-cursor chemicals to the manufacture of Amphetamines and Methamphetamine. Meaning that that they can, in large enough quantities, form the key ingredients needed to manufacture Amphetamines and Methamphetamine.
As a result of this,people in possession of cold medication in a quantity deemed beyond reasonable personal use, can often face similar charges to those received for possession of Amphetamine.
As for further medical uses, they include weight lose, narcolepsy and difficult depression cases(off label). Interestingly the US's air force combat pilots take them during training and combat situations.
