Talk:D-IX

Category made for drugs developed, used in official and scriped in the Third Reich / Nazi Germany

I know the 'pervitin' (the then brand name for methamphetamine) was used by the wehrmacht as the standard military issue "pep pill", and many soldats wrote home to have their family send them more above and beyond their standard munitions. Reichsmarschall H. Goering was addicted to eukodal (oxycodone) and paracodeine (dihydrocodeine). Apparently methadone was developed during the Nazi administration (as dolophine). Might a category or page on pharmaceuticals developed during the period of the NSDAP gov't, by/for the government, or used by Germany during the war, make a cohesive coverage of the subject, perhaps?

Kill Your Darlings: Reference

In the movie Kill Your Darlings, the dialogue goes:

Pervitin.
The Germans called it the "Wunderdroge."
Prescribed for superhuman feats.
But beware of the side effects
which include sudden bouts of blindness,
diarrhea, heart palpitations
and a severe decline in moral standards.
