Abstract
Pharmaceutical compositions and their methods of use are provided, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise an amphetamine prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or an amphetamine analog. The composition can further comprise an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or the amphetamine analog from the amphetamine prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the amphetamine prodrug.
