Explanation:

Amphetamines are stimulant drugs. When their effects wear off, users often experience a "crash" characterized by depression, extreme fatigue, and low energy, which undermines the goal of combating workout fatigue. Liver/kidney damage is more associated with long-term heavy use not specific to workout context; they do not primarily increase blood viscosity to cause fatal clots; and they boost, not lower, metabolic rate.

Answer:

B. amphetamines may cause depression and fatigue after the effect wears off.
