However, they can have serious consequences when misused or abused, and for this reason are legally available to the public only by prescription. Students preparing for exams or vehicle drivers making long trips, who sometimes take amphetamines: to increase alertness and lessen fatigue, may experience a state of wakefulness â€" accompanied by increased activity, but they may suffer also loss of judgement or intellectual accuracy which could result in a serious accident or error in performance. Some persons who take amphetamines obtained by prescription also misuse them by taking them when they are no longer medically useful and develop a psychic dependence on them. When taken in normal doses, tolerance develops slowly, but when progressively larger doses are taken, tolerance builds up quickly to a point where a dose hundreds of times the norâ€" mal dose may be used. The most recent pattern of abuse is the _ selfâ€" administering of illicitlyâ€" obtained drugs in everâ€" increasing doses for the purpose of getting "kicks‘" or for an "experience". The excessive use and abuse of amphetamines can lead to _ amphetamine toxicity, the symptoms varying, with the individual and the dose, says the Food and Drug Directorate of the Department of National Health and Welfare. Mild symptoms include insomnia, tremors, talkativeness, irritability, lack of appetite and hyperactive reflexes; moderate symptoms include dilerium, â€" hallucinations, panic states (with feelings of persecution and suspicion) profuse sweating and muscle and joint pain. Severe symptoms may range from coma _ and â€" convulsion HUNTING FATALITIES â€" In the past five years in Ontario, 99 hunters met death by drowning, and 61 were fatally injured in shooting accidents. through circulatory collapse to death. t Some reports indicate loss of memory and diminished ability to concentrate.
