quote : The FDA did NOT mention liver damage in their report on ephedrine. They reported problems included symptoms such as racing heart rate, nervousness, dizziness and changes in blood pressure all the way to the more extreme chest pain, heart attacks, hepatitis, stroke, seizures, psychosis and... death. But not liver toxicity.
If thats been reported by the FDA........... HEPATITIS is "Hepatitis (plural hepatitides) is a medical condition defined by the inflammation of the liver and characterized by the presence of inflammatory cells in the tissue of the organ." (quote off wiki for hepatitis) so the warning is there as hepatitis is liver damage, however in healthy individuals ephedrine should not have and impact on your liver as its easily metabolised, not sure on the interaction with the liver and other drugs however. not putting in this post to worry people just to let u no the fda warning does contain possible effects on the liver under the wording hepatitis
