It is considered a DEA schedule II substance which makes it easy to abuse or lead to psychological harm. Students use it because it makes the user feel as if they are alert, concentrated, or motivated. They use it as a study aide so they can do well on their tests. They can study for hours because the drug keeps them up. Students get the drug from a dealer or they can fake they have ADHD.
It is dangerous because they can get addicted and is a prescription drug. If the dose taken is too high, it can lead to high blood pressure, seizure, coma, or death. Although this is a huge problem that is constantly growing, it is easy to fake having ADHD. By claiming they have ADHD, they can easily get the drug and distribute it.
