Wow, what a welcome!

I wrote that Merck was the distributor of Captagon. Would you please tell me what's wrong about this contribution of mine? --134.155.99.42 21:00, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Merger

Merge. The captagon article contains unreferenced, nearly useless information. It's not a brand name that's notable enough to warrant its own article. Fuzzform (talk) 23:59, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

If there are no objections within a week, I'll merge the two. There doesn't seem to be much interest or contention here. Fuzzform (talk) 23:23, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Active in itself too?

Besides being a prodrug for amphetamine, a metabolite of it: Fenethylline acts before it is metabolized into it's two "constituent" substances as well? The article says 'the three drugs' but I want to be certain. Nagelfar (talk) 15:51, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

The Captagon of Bulgaria

Captagon produced in Communist Bulgaria (by Kintex) was sold in Libya where it was used to get rid of the political disidents. Captagon was added in the food rations, and people were dying in about 6 months. Political disidents were taken into forced labour camps. The Captagon made them capable to work without water in the burning sun, without feeling tired, at the expense of their health. They were not dying in the camps, but a few months later, when they went back home, usually from full kidney stop. The smuggling chanels between Europe and Middle East was build by Kintex, with the help of the Bulgarian secret services back in the 1970-1980, and they are still active. it should be like "family business" for some people now. "Captagon is not officially produced in Bulgaria after 1990, but the chanels for selling it to the countries from Middle East area are still working. It's produced in illegal laboratories, by the apprentices of the pharmacologists from the 1980 In the present days the smuggling chanels are under the control of the offsprings of the Bulgarian secret services from the comunist times. There are some specualtions that Captagon pills in the present days are used as a payment for the heroin that goes from middle east to Europe. —  Ark25  (talk) 21:53, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Merge

Yes, lets merge it into Fenethylline. The information here is not only useless but mostly wrong. I am from Europe and there is no evidence for an use in countrys here, not on scientific nor non-scientific base.

Really? From July 2020, "Italian police have seized a record 1 billion euros worth of amphetamine pills known as the 'drug of the Jihad' that arrived from Syria. " — Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpatSalopian (talk • contribs) 20:46, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
