Hi, this is my first posting so please forgive me if its not the type of thing that goes on here. I am a 36yr old female, i have suffered with low energy levels since about the age of 14yrs. I was put on antidepressants for a few years, but i didn't think that was the problem. I also suffer from asthma and hayfever. I bought some Ephedrine off the internet and this gave me loads of energy, i didn't need my inhaler or the hayfever tablets. They seem to have been taken off the internet now so i can't get them anymore. DO YOU THINKA DOCTOR WOULD PERSCRIBE THEM? Thanx 4 looking.

Why not just ask your doctor?

Probably because it appears to be illegal to sell in the UK - link

It sounds like it's a pile of crap anyway. What good is it if it relieves your asthma, but kills your kidneys?

The risks:

At high doses, users can experience anxiety, heart palpitations, vomiting, tremors and insomnia. Medium risk of overdose. Low dependency risk.
Long term recreational misuse has been linked to strokes and heart attack.
Reports of undesirable side-effects are widespread, and lawsuits are pending in the states concerning a number of deaths alleged to be associated with ephedrine use.
Ephedra/Ma huang is sold as a dieting supplement in the USA and has been associated with many serious side effects such as strokes, kidney failure and miscarriages

Why are you posting this on a forum site ? If you are ill go to the hospital.

Drink shit loads of coke.

i posted this on a forum site as it had a forum called 'health and well being'. If we went to the doc's for everything, we would spend a large part of our lives there.
