does anyone use the primatine for the ephedrine? It's ephedrine HCL, not really the same as herbal ephedrine. I hear the HCL is suppossed to be better, more pure. Anyways, if anyone takes, i was wondering at what doseage u take it. thanks IP: Logged |

Yes, they work great and only cost around $8 at Wal-Mart for 60 pills. Buy those generic "Equate" brand caffein tabs, and you got yourself a very cheap and effective E/C stack. IP: Logged |

The "HCl" is just the salt form of the drug. Take it just as you would the herbal form. 25 milligrams to each 200-250 mg of caffeine. IP: Logged |

i know the herbal ephedrine comes in about 200-300mg per pill usually. Primatine comes in i believe 12mg HCL. How many primatine would equal 1 herbal ephedrine pill? IP: Logged |

The PrimatENE tabs are 12.5 mg. per tablet. Therefore, you will need to take two pills for the usual 25 mg. dosage. Most ephedrine has been standardized from its herbalized extracted form. In other words, when you say that you have 300 mg. tabs/caps of ephedrine, this is the herbalized form, if not, then it would probably kill you at this high a dosage. Your bottle should have a percentage of standardization. Look for the label to say something like: Ma Huang Extract 320 mg. standardized for 8% ephedrine = 25 mg. To figure out the strength of each pill/dose, multiply 320 X 0.08 = 25.6 grams of standardized ephedrine per dose. IP: Logged |
