Ephedrine

Can anyone tell me what the maximum reccomended EPH consumption is per day?

I have just got hold of an ECA stack,

30mg EPH
120mg Caffein
30mg Asprin
80mg Narnegin

It says take 1-2 caps pre-workout or before each meal.

Would 2 in the AM and 2 in the afternoon be too much EPH in one day? ie; 120mg EPH?

Obviously i will start with 1 cap and build up.

Cheers

Gaz

Re: Ephedrine

the thing to remember when companies tell you the max amount to take they keep it low to be on the safe side. i can't take the capsules with the herbal eph i feel sick straight away. if thats what you've got just watch the caffeine too much in a few hours can give you shakes bad & you really need to watch the aspirin. i use the eph hcl & on the tub the max dose is between 75mg & 100mg (they come in 30mg so thats weird) i'v been taking them for years so i obviously need to take more than i used too. i take 10-12 a day (many more when i was at college, working & training) so as long as you build up 120 should be fine. just avoid them later at night if you want a sleep. i'm not a doctor so my advice is given on personal experience.

Re: Ephedrine

not to hijack this thread or anything, but these ephedrine 'stacks' you can buy, are they any good? like compared to just getting some eph, caffeine and aspirin tabs? also, isnt ephedrine illegal to sell - because ive seen eph-stacks for sale on UK supplement websites?

as i said the stacks usually contain herbal eph which i'v never been able to tolerate. IMO eph hcl is much better. i take caffeine to but avoid the aspirin very harsh on the stomach... it is illegal to sell without a license but many uk sites sell eph hcl (can't mention names would break the rules, & rightly so don't want the site full of spammers) any companies that say you can't buy the hcl say that so you buy their herbal rubbish...

Just stole this of Wikipedia while doing a bit of reading...

UK
In the UK ephedrine is regulated as a P medicine: it may only be lawfully supplied within a registered pharmacy and while a responsible pharmacist is present. The maximum amount of ephedrine legally available without prescription in one sale is 180mg- the only product commonly sold within these restrictions is ChestEze tablets which consist of 9 pills of 18.75mg ephedrine combined with caffeine and theophylline. These are intended as a nasal decongestant but are known to be misused by bodybuilders. Higher strengths of pure ephedrine are available as prescription-only medicines but are not currently Controlled Drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act.

there is probably just as many woman using them to lose weight as bodybuilders. if you order on line you don't need a prescription, try going into the same chemist every day or 2 & buy them? they will not sell you them so you will have to go to different chemists (sorry pharmacists)

Re: Ephedrine

I have been having 2 on waking (pre-workout, 6am) and 2 in the afternoon at about 4 pm.

Im not sweating, shaking, getting hot. No feeling at all.

Any idea why this is? I gave my mate 1 yesterday and he said he was high as a kite and shaking like a leaf so i know they are legit.

Dare i take more to get the 'feeling' that they are working?

Thanks

Gaz

Re: Ephedrine

everyone reacts differently to eph. the first time i took ONE i went to gym to do a back workout & ended up in the toilet being sick. i used to almost feel the hair on the back of my neck stand up.... the sweating, shakes & getting hot are all bad side effects from it so not getting them is good. you should have much more energy, if you feel your not getting that then you can try one more (at your own risk).... i don't think your mate should take any more than 1 i shouldn't laugh thats what happens if i take the herbal ones.
