Pose a risk of misuse or dependency: Certain medications have a high potential for abuse or addiction examples include opioid painkillers, sedatives (like benzodiazepines), and stimulant medications for ADHD
Elderly individuals may require maintenance supplementation
R 2 is selected from the group consisting of: hydrogen, -CH(R a )OPO(OH)2, -CO-Y, -i-PO(OY) 2 , --PO(OH) 2 , -C(=0)-Y, -CO-U, -C(=0)-(CH 2 )rU, and -CH 2 -V, where R a is hydrogen or CH 3 , where Y is -Z-(CH 2 )q-W-R b , q is 0-4, where Z and W are independently selected from the group consisting of: CH 2 , O, S, R C and R b , where R c is selected from the group consisting of: hydrogen, C1-C4 alkyl, and C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, R b is selected from the group consisting of: hydrogen, C1-C12 alkyl, C1-C12 substituted alkyl, C1-C12 alkenyl, C1-C12 substituted alkenyl, C1-C12 alkynyl, C1-C12 substituted alkynyl, C 3 -Cs cycloalkyl, C 3 -Cs substituted cycloalkyl, C 6 -Cio aryl, C 6 -Cio substituted aryl, C 3 -Cs heterocycloalkyl, C 3 -Cs substituted heterocycloalkyl, C4-C10 heteroaryl, and C4-C10 substituted heteroaryl, where r is 0-5, U is selected from aryl, heteroaryl or heterocycloalkyl, where V is -0-C(=0)-Q-(CH 2 )r-R d , where Q is selected from the group consisting of: a bond, O, and N(R C ), where R d is selected from the group consisting of: C6-C10 aryl, C4-C10 heteroaryl, C 3 -Cs heterocycloalkyl, a hexose, a pentose, and - (5-methyl-2-oxo-l,3-dioxol-4-yl)methyl), or alternatively -C(=0)-Y forms an amide bond thru a nitrogen atom on Y in which case Y is a selected from the group consisting of: glycine, sarcosine, ,-diemthyl glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, lysine, ornithine, arigine, serine, and theronine
