Originally my wife got some of the ephedrine pills to use for weight loss while working out. She is a bit overweight. I was not but decided to try them for awhile. I don't know if it did me any good or not since I wasn't overweight to begin with but I decided to up the dosage. It said you can take one pill every four hours so instead of just taking one pill before I worked out, I took about 3 pills a day. By the second day, especially after excercise I felt REALLY light headed and on the verge of passing out. I couldn't sleep that night very well and had a headache. I did notice less urine even though I drank A LOT of water. The next day I realized I developed what I believe is a hemmoroid (self diagnosed) and I have never had one before but believe the high dose of this drug could have possibly had something to do with it. I always became sort of shaky and irritable but it did provide extra energy while working out. I won't take them any longer. It is my opinion that if you are overweight, using one pill before working out might be ok but beware of the side effects such as light headedness and quit using it right away if you have any symptoms. I don't believe there are benefits to using this product for energy if you are not overweight. The risk definitely does not outweigh the benefits.

I have used Ephedrine in the past for extra energy in the gym and it worked great. At that point there weren't large claims of complications from it. I lost about twenty five pounds and it would give me a ton of energy to perform while working out. I was a touch irratable from it but the benefits far outweighed any issue I incountered. I believe if it is used responsibly and by those who's health will permit then it is great. One of the problems I think we have today is that of being told what we are and are not allowed to take. I believe people should be notified of medication that can be dangerous and what the side effects can be but we shouldn't be treated like children. My use wasn't continuous as that could present an issue. I used it together with a strict diet and exercise.
