If you are going for prescription drugs try Provigil. It works nicely
without the harsh effects of methamphetamine etc.

I know they gave British WWII troops Amphetamine Sulphate (Speed) for
the
same purpose.
Side effects? Short Term = Cramps, Bleeding Gums, Lethargy (all on
comedown). Long Term = Paranoia, Weight Loss, Heart Trouble (If you
REALLY
abuse the stuff).
These are all the bad side effects - there are good ones too,
especially the
intelligence boost. Speed helps you to concentrate and think as much
as you
like, without becoming bored or tired. Another is heightened sex
drive.
Speed is a powerful enhancer of sexual sensations. As they say -
speed's the
poor man's coke.
