What long-term effects does chronic amphetamine abuse have on your body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Significant.: Chronic weight loss and anorexia ... In children it can cause slow maturation and retarded growth. If you constantly drive your car 80 mph instead of 55mph, your engine will die young. Amphetamines cause your heart to go 80 instead of 55.
