The invention describes compounds, compositions, and methods of using the same comprising a chemical moiety covalently attached to amphetamine. These compounds and compositions are useful for reducing or preventing abuse and overdose of amphetamine. These compounds and compositions find particular use in providing an abuse-resistant alternative treatment for certain disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), ADD, narcolepsy, and obesity. Oral bioavailability of amphetamine is maintained at therapeutically useful doses. At higher doses bioavailability is substantially reduced, thereby providing a method of reducing oral abuse liability. Further, compounds and compositions of the invention decrease the bioavailability of amphetamine by parenteral routes, such as intravenous or intranasal administration, further limiting their abuse liability.

L'invention concerne des composés, des compositions et des procédés d'utilisation de ceux-ci, lesquels comprennent une fraction chimique liée par covalence à une amphétamine. Ces composés et compositions sont utiles aux fins de réduction ou de prévention d'une consommation abusive ou d'une overdose d'amphétamine. Ces composés et compositions sont spécialement utiles dans la mise en place d'un traitement alternatif résistant à une consommation abusive de certains troubles, tels que l'hyperactivité avec déficit de l'attention (ADHD), ADD, la narcolepsie et l'obésité. La biodisponibilité orale de l'amphétamine est conservée à des doses utiles sur le plan thérapeutique. A des doses supérieures, la biodisponibilité est sensiblement réduite, mettant ainsi en place un procédé permettant de réduire le problème de la consommation orale abusive. De plus, les composés et compositions selon l'invention permettent de diminuer la biodisponibilité de l'amphétamine par voies parentérales, telles qu'une administration intraveineuses ou intranasale, limitant encore le problème de la consommation abusive.
