Question on Pseudoephedrine

[Stryc-9]

Yes, caffeine has a synergystic effect when combined with ephedra alkaloids (i.e., it amplifies their actions in the body).

Is the effect it has on my body unhealthy becasue I felt very very strange all day. And are the fat burning effects amplified when used in this manner?

 

[Stryc-9]

Well yes, ephedrine + caffeine is more effective for this purpose than ephedrine alone, if that's what you meant. As far as it being healthy/unhealthy....people need to be smart about it and use common sense. Assuming you don't have any pre-existing/underlying cardiac or hypertension issues, it can be used quite safely if not abused.

Carth, if you want to combat the stuffiness that comes with viagra use, spray Afrin. Decongestants can nullify the effects of viagra. In fact, my MD told me that if someone comes in the office after taking too much viagra,(you know... with a raging boner that won't go down) he gives them benedryl and the wood becomes a noodle.

Funny you mentioned that. I read on a website ( don't remember which one ) that a guy said that when he takes Viagra, he gets a headache and stuffynose. But that taking a decongestant makes the stuffy nose go away.

Now last week I took 50mgs of Viagra and that shit didnt' anything to me! Usually 25mgs is all I need. Then again...I did take a decongestant pill with the Viagra. Now I'm thinking that the pseudoephedrine killed the Viagra. What do you think?

Have you tried Afrin? Or Afrin with Viagra?

The stuff gets me wired. I took ephedra for years, this gives a similar feeling.

Oh btw..benedryl has pseudoephedrine? I don't see it in the ingredients.

Carth, I'm not sure if it is pseudoephedrine, but some ingredient in decongestants have the nullifying effect on viagra; I'll ask my doc next time I see him. Yes, I always spray Afrin after taking a blue bullet, for me they go together. Then, later, I take Aleve for the headache. Hate the stuffiness & headache from Viagra. Another thing; if you take Viagra with or after a meal, it also doesn't work very well. Best to take it on a fairly empty stomach. Too much alchol can kill it also.

Do you pop the V and then take Afrin? Or do you wait until your nose is all fucked up and then take Afrin? Same for headaches. Should I take advil with the V? or prior to taking it the V?

I suppose you could do it either way. I spray Afrin right after I take V, because I know V is going to make me stuffy & Afrin works for like 12 hours, so not worried about spraying it too early. Sometimes I don't take Aleve, because V does not always give me a headache. I usually wait until I feel the headache, because I might not get one until about 4 hours after I pop V , and I think Aleve only lasts like 4 hours. ps. The stuffiness & headache sides with V are magnified with lots of alcohol, but my routine for making panties drop with new chicks involves alcohol: freaking catch 22.
