FOX 5/Atlanta: Some students call them smart pills or brain steroids. Adderall and Ritalin are legal stimulants prescribed for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder -- ADHD -- in ever greater numbers. For years now, students who don't have that problem have been taking the drugs for a competitive edge. But the problem is growing. Russ Spencer reports.
The report includes interviews with Georgia Tech student John Howard, Lieutenant Mike Hunsiger, students Eric Worrell and Mary Margaret Powers, UGA drug counselor Mike Friedline and psychiatrist Dr. Richard Winer.

Knoxerboy101(Thursday 4th of December 2008 03:06:11 AM)

so is taking no-doze, ginko, or caffeine pills to concentrate and stay up now considered "cheating"? lol. some courses & professors are hell compared to the professional world and I credit my meds use to help bring out my inner talent and eventual success.use them responsibly and you'll do ok. too bad scare-mongers, go find something else to demonize. nice chest on that girl.
