      Depends, do you mean doctors today or doctors in the late 19th and early 20th century?

      It’s not that they prescribe it, but it’s also a tell for the ADHD when coke don’t work as usual either.

      Typically it’s prescribed for ghosts in the blood, but can pull double duty off-lable for ADHD if amphetamine is out of stock at your local apothecary.

      Normally not for brain stuff, but it’s considered to have valid medical uses as a local anesthetic and vasoconstrictor in some cases.
