You know what I love most about methamphetamine?


Watching it kill white trash.

Except that the negative isomers of meth and amphetamine are so weak as to be not desirable to a crank head. Which is why the negative isomer of psuedo ephedrine may be the solution to the massive production and diversion of cold medicine if we could get the Pharmalobby to accept the changeover. It makes lousy crank but is still good cold medicine. The patents on the (-) isomers cold medicine should be expired in a deacade or so.

Nearly all  the meth in the world is made from diverted generic cold medicine. Something the Pharma business is well aware of and is happy to take the profits for. The industry takes no steps to obstruct the diversion unless forced by regulation and oversight. In fact they spend millions on buying politicians to lobby against anything that impeads the sale of meth precursurs.

And while I have to double check the quote below, it appears you do not want E that is not a racemic mixture of the stereoisomers.

The plus isomer ((+)MDMA) has predominately dopaminergic, stimulant-like activity with overlapping effects with (+)METH, while (-)MDMA has predominately serotonergic effects (Cho and Segal, 1994)
