Help with my 11 year old's meth homework. |
|
Apparently, her class is using phenylpropanolamine. In my day, we used pheynl-2-propane.
Which is correct?

1. PPA Wasn't Banned For Its Drug Usage Problem |
|
If that helps. It was banned for a study that said African American women with a family history of heart attacks who, also drank at least 5 times a week and exceeded their initial dosage of PPA by 100% or more were more likely to have a heart attack after taking PPA.
I liked PPA for allergies but that's all I ever used it for or ever heard of it being used for. I thought that study was a pretty flimsy excuse to ban the stuff. Should people who drink regularly and have a history of heart problems be taking twice as much of a stimulant anyway?
