AB Amphetamine sulfate in a dose of 10 mgm. by mouth is incapable of significantly improving performance of a monotonous skilled task for a relatively short time unless this performance has been reduced by previously existing fatigue. In fatigued subjects significant restoration of performance, although not to pre-fatigue levels, usually results from this medication. Thus amphetamine sulfate may be a useful drug when necessity requires the performance of such tasks by fatigued individuals. 1947 by The American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics
