Lisdexamphetamine consists of the dextro-rotary stereoisomer of [[amphetamine]] bonded to the essential amino acid L-Lysine. Amphetamine is comprised of a [[phenethylamine]] core featuring a phenyl ring bound to an amino (NH<sub>2</sub>) group through an ethyl chain with an additional methyl substitution at R<sub>α</sub>. It can be referred to as a methyl homologue of [[phenethylamine]] as it has the same general formula, differing only in the addition of one methyl group. | Lisdexamphetamine consists of the dextro-rotary stereoisomer of [[amphetamine]] bonded to the essential amino acid L-Lysine.
