TIA-stroke-seizure: Amphetamines drive up your blood pressure and they can cause strokes and brain hemorrhage. This could have been a transient ischemic attack, a small stroke, a small brain hemorrhage, or a seizure. See a neurologist, get a ct scan of the head and stop using.

Dangerous: It is possible an overdose if you suffered deep confusion after one or two pills of amphetamines (we don t know what strenght you refer to). However other types of brain damage (permanent or not) are sometimes caused by amphetamines for different mechanisms. Consult your dr on what is a safe dose for you.
