ephedrine / pseudoephedrine

I've been getting no sleep lately and I'm yawning every ten seconds, but I'm definitely seeing tilt tonight. I need a decent pick me up and no, jib is not an alternative. They took ephedrine off the market, but is the pseudo variety anywhere close to a substitute or will I just be roaming around the club with clear nasal passages feeling really tired? There's lots of news about ephedrine used strictly as a stimulant but not much on pseudo.

Health Canada request that stores remove ephedrine over 8mg/dose off the shelves.

It's been the guideline for years, and every few years they pretend that there are all sorts of problems when the doses creep up past 8mg.

Ephidrine and most products that contain it are still on the shelves.

The way it works is any of the items that have a "DIN" # are ok. I believe it stands for Drug Inspection Number.

It's always been marketed as a Nasal Decongestant.. since it opens up your bronchial tubes. (really good if you have a bad cold or asthma)

Drug Identification Number (or, if you're talking about electrical plugs... Deutsches Institut für Normung)...

If it has a DIN, it won't be labelled for anything other than decongesting your nasal passages.

I would've eventually bought that amount anyway.

pseudoephedrine is a drug that mimics ephedrine and its effect. It binds more to the alpha receptors rather than beta and there fore it has less effect on the central nervous system, and just clears your nose. but if you take it in large enough ammout it can produce a high, as well as other side effects, but I wouldn't want to play guinie pig on myself...
