ephedrine HCL
 

someone recommended bolt ephedrine HCL for CFS/fibromyalgia.

bolt ephedrine HCL

Ive used the primatene(epinephrine) inhaler pump once or twice, but it was too irritating to my airway. so i basically tossed that option.

I've taken sudafed(pseudoephedrine) with some good results. but i dont trust this ephedrine HCL 8 mg stuff. Am i right in this opinion?

Ephedrine can make anxiety worse.
It can cause insomnia.

I would not take this without supervision of your doctor.

hmm yeah, you're probably right, no doctor would ever supervise over a decision to take this, he would flat out tell me to not consider it.

but, sudafed never made my anxiety worse or increased my insomnia.

hmm yeah, you're probably right, no doctor would ever supervise over a decision to take this, he would flat out tell me to not consider it. they would tell me it is not a relatively benign drug to take

but, sudafed(pseudoephedrine) however, i believe is a relatively benign drug, never made my anxiety worse or increased my insomnia.

Sudafed is not as centrally stimulating as ephedrine is.

I wouldn't use Sudafed either without your doctor's knowledge, since you take so many psychotropic drugs. Both can mess with your response and create side effects and undo your treatments.

Sudafed and ephedrine also have some MAOI actions, and may interact with SSRI drugs.

hmm what do u mean by centrally stimulating?

All drugs vary in their actions.

Ephedrine when it was first synthesized was considered too stimulating for cough and cold treatment. So pseudoephedrine was developed with less potential for the many side effects ephedrine causes.

Ephedrine is very potent, and really has the potential to cause harm in many ways.

you would not need klonopin if you were not taking stimulants... trust me I am speaking from experience

trust me i am speaking from my experience and my experience tells me that i get panic attacks without even taking sudafed. and when i do take sudafed i dont usually get panic attacks shortly therafter-meaning they don't cause me to get panicky.

notice the comment in your sig. about ASA (aspirin), thought you might find these of interest
