Hello! A detailed and thorough text. I can't confess to know much about Amphetamines academically, but relating to the article: The following paragraphs or sentences do not have citations:

• "heightened cholinergic activity likely contributes to its nootropic effects."  Done
• The paragraph in 'derivatives'  Done
• "Recreational use of amphetamine generally involves far larger doses and is therefore significantly more dangerous, involving a greater risk of serious side effects"  Done

This source doesn't have an access date: "Jump up ^ Australian Drug Foundation. "Amphetamines (speed): what are the effects?". myDr.com.au."

 Fixed

Citations in this paragraph "In addition, amphetamine is also used by some professional" could be lumped together

 Done

There is a double line before the paragraph "Dopamine"

 Fixed

Many of the side-effects listed in "physical" could be moved to sub-sections: for example, hypo and hypertension could be moved to the 'cardiac side-effects' section.

  I decided to move the information from the subsections into physical and overdose instead, since they contained a mix of information from both; I figured it would be a bit cumbersome to have therapeutic dose and overdose information in each subsection.

• One notable side-effect you may like to refer to is the development of the serotonin syndrome

 Done

This will get some of the lower-hanging fruit out of the way. There doesn't appear to be any major problems with the article that would stop it from being promoted to GA status. Kind regards, LT90001 ( talk) 10:44, 9 October 2013 (UTC) reply
