EXTRA CONFIRMED: The stimulant patch that Sam preferred was EMSAM, a drug normally used to treat depression or Parkinson's, but used off-label for its alertness and focus benefits.
We've been reached out to and told the EMSAM can be dangerous when taken if you eat the wrong foods. Please do not take this without appropriate supervision.
Commenters point out that EMSAM (Selegiline) has fatal effects if eaten with meat products. They also point out that it is linked to impulse control disorders such as pathological gambling and hypersexuality. This could explain Sam's behaviour.
The erowid (drug information) reviews on Emsam are particularly interesting. This one stands out. Published March 9, 2010. Linked below:
