Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I recently saw a mexican product called Redotex, it was a combination of things. It has 75mcg of T3, 8 mg of diazepam (valium), 50mg of D-pseudoephedrine, 36 mg of atropine ?, and 16mg of aloina. I don't what some of these substances are and don't really understand how they all work together. And the diazepam is strange, maybe its there to prevent overstimulation. Anyway, if anybody has heard of this stuff I'd be interested. It just looked really strange.

T3 is a thyroid hormone - it's there to boost metabolism.
Pseudoephedrine is there as a metabolic booster (v. weak) but probably mainly as a bronchodilator to allow larger lung capacity when doing cardio. It's the active ingredient in Sudafed.
Diazepam is likely there to help you sleep, or at least to suppress the hyperactivity many people get with T3 - if you think about it, you're artificially inducing a hyperthyroid condition by using T3.
Atropine is an alkaloid which comes from Deadly Nightshade (Atropa belladonna, if I recall correctly from my pharmacology lectures), and is used in surgery quite often to suppress bradycardia (slowed heart rate) under anaesthesia, by binding to the muscarinic cholinergic receptors of the peripheral nervous system. It's one of the last shots you're given before they dose you with fentanyl and you fade to black. Atropine, since it's also a vasodilator, in this product would likely be a means to increase blood flow to the tissues to aid the increased metabolism cause by administration of T3. In essence, it makes sure that the nutrient-rich blood flow is not the rate-limiting step for your metabolism; it lets the T3 work to its full potential. At least this makes sense to me... Oh, a little side-note, if you've ever been to the Optometrist and they put drops in your eyes to dilate them (not the anaesthetic ones to numb them when they check for glaucoma; that's prilocaine), those drops contain atropine at about 0.5-1%. Just FYI, I guess.
I have no idea what Aloina would be doing in there... Aloina aloides is likely the species they used, but it's a bryophyte moss and I have no idea what it would be doing in there along with these other chemicals.
Hope this clears some of that up.

Reminds me of the Simpsons episode when Homer becomes a truck driver and he swallows a bottle of caffeine pills to stay alert and follows it with some sleeping pills to take the edge off.
I remember being tired one night along with having a cold and taking some pseudophedrine or Tylenol Cold medication, then my wife wanted to go out dancing for her birthday so I popped some ephedrine tabs. Talk about a stomach ache, it was more like stomach pain. It sucked. Wont do that again................galaxy

Are you sure the "T3" isn't TYLENOL #3? That would be Acetaminophen with 30mgs of Codeine I believe, and is also referred to as "T3". That would make more sense than the Thyroid Hormone being added to that product, just by looking at it. Plus, I rermember hearing about, or reading about a painkiller in Mexico that has diazepam & codeine. Was it a small, light blue tab with some numbering on one side by chance? And NO, I'm not talking about the 10mg Roche Valiums. Something else. However, thess tabs would be the same size as the Blue 10mg Roche Valiums, that you can purchase in Mexico.

I can't really believe that a product would list "75 mcg of T3" as an active ingredient if it was Tylenol #3, since here's the composition of T3's:
500 mg Acetaminophen
30 mg Codeine
30 mg Caffeine
____________
560 mg total
Now, if you look at the 75 MICROgrams they list, that would amount to:
0.067 mg Acetaminophen (67 mcg)
0.0040 mg Codeine (4 mcg)
0.0040 mg Caffeine (4 mcg)
____________________________
0.075 mg (75 mcg)
Which would mean that the "Tylenol 3" content would be absolutely USELESS.
Triiodothyronine (T3, the thyroid hormone) is very active in the body at the 75 mcg/day level, however.
Furthermore, "Tylenol #3" is a proprietary mix, with T3 as slang only - any manufacturer combining acetaminophen, codeine and caffeine would list these constituents and their amounts rather than just saying "T3".
This talk of tylenol as the T3 in the product is ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous.
If it was 75 MILLIgrams (mg) then I could see it, but still... being 75 mcg it's the thyroid hormone T3.

True. I didn't see the measurements.

yeah....it is definitely a fat loss medication...it was listed with regular T3(cytomel) and clenbuterol on a website that sells fat loss tabs and AAS. I assume the combination doesn't counteract one another...but I wouldn't want to try that out on my body. It seems kinda like mixing...well it is mixing uppers and downers...which is not a good thing....hmmm
