    Headache with clen..

    Hi guys, started my first cycle of clen 2 days ago and i have a slight headache during the day. Yesterday i started with 40mcg and i took 60mcg today, i haven't started to feel the jitters yet however i definitely do feel different to normal. Are these headaches common whilst on clen? Would taking taurine help with the headaches?

    Thanks

    Clen can cause headaches, it never does with me though...drink more water..as your body gets used it, those sides should go away

    Taking taurine while on clen is always a good idea and may help. Although I'm sure you're not getting enough water. Drink at least 2 gallons of water and supplement taurine (10g throughout the day) and supplement some potassium... you should be fine.

    funny that you say that someone once told me it reminds them of burrito. Now just talking about this made me hungry! Dammit, this is when I hate this intermittent fasting, not to
    Mention I just cooked 7 days worth of spaghetti and wasn't allowed to eat any of it.

    No. I drink more than 2 gallOns everyday and I'm not even on Clen. I just got use to drinking water. 2 gallons over a 16 hour period (assuming you sleep 8 hours) is not a lot at all.

    Get it done and you'll be much happier.

    I've ran 10+ cycles of clen and just started another one today. I haven't ever used clen and NOT had the headaches, and they're always pounding ones! Today was the first time in years that I've used clen (I started with 60mcg) and guess what...a pounding headache for my second dosage. I always split my dosage. 1 in the morning when I wake up and one around 6 hours later.

    I've always used Excedrine for my headaches and it works like a charm! To my knowledge it doesn't interfere with the clen, but I could be wrong. If you wanted a clear cut answer as to what OTC (or otherwise) medications could be a contraindication to clen...Bonaparte would probably be the guy to ask!

    you will be surprized at how much water you can get in...Walmart sells the 74.4 oz( 2.2litter) jugs just fill 2 and carry with you all day drinking even when you are not thirsty (thirst means your bod is already dehydrated) they go quick

    LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.

    Don't follow a predetermined schedule. Up your water intake as it's been suggested. I drink a gallon + off clen and try to get 2 in while on clen. I don't get headaches until I'm dosing 160 a day and if I haven't had enough water. After the sides subside then up your dose. Sides come back? Stay at the dose until your body adapts, then up it.

    I'm on day 5 of my first Clen cycle. Today I took 120 mcg... And I have a headache and feel really jittery... Yesterday I took 100mcg and only had a little jitters... I will try 120 one more day if it's still this awkward I'll drop back to 100.
    As far as the water goes a high percentage of regular headaches (not on Clen) are related to dehydration.... Either way... I try to drink 1.5 -2 gal regularly , if you drink alot you have to pee alot, every time you pee make it a point to fill up on water, EVERY time. And in between. That how I try to stay hydrated. Give it a shot.

    When you increase your water intake heavily, just make sure that you're getting a healthy intake of electrolytes as well. Drinking too much water without sodium, potassium, etc. can cause just as many problems as being dehydrated.

    I wouldn't call it being a champ. I call it being young and dumb. From age 20 -26 I used it to keep the weight down instead of solid diet. Luckily I've grown up since then and it's one cycle a year for me from now on!

    Okay so i drank more than 2 gallons today and the heaches have gone, that was on 80mcg aswell. There was a 2 hour period when i had nothing to drink and i could feelthe headache coming, but i smashed half a gallon and it went away.
    I'm going to go 100mcg tomorrow which will be my 4th day (40, 60, 80, 100) because i don't really feel any different at all. When i hold my hand out it does shake a little, but mentally i feel normal. Are the jitters a mental feeling? And if i feel fine on 100mcg, is it safe to go to 120mcg even though this is my first cycle?

    Clen is just bad news for me, I can take all kinds of things without problems but Clen murders me. I get a list of side effects even at low doses. Some people just don`t agree with the stuff.

    So i took 120mcg today and i'm thinking about 140mcg tomorrow.
    When i hold my hand out, it does shake but it doesn't effect me during the day at all. I feel 100% mentally and physically.

    How high can i go before it starts to get quite dangerous?

    I just went 140mcg today and the shakyness got stronger but i could definitely go higher. I've been told to listen to my body and my body tells me i could do 160mcg or even 180mcg and be 100%...
    By the way, i'm using a-ar liquid clen

    I'm no expert by any means but for your cycle I would do 100 or 120 for your cycle and see if how you result... Just my opinion...

    Good on you for listening to your body. I topped out at 160mcg a day. I was getting results so I didn't see the need to go higher but the sides defiantly subsided after a couple days at 160. I don't have the confidence or experience to do a higher dose and if I'm getting the results I don't see the need.

    I did 160mcg today and felt that sane as i did yesterday on 140mcg. I think i'll stay at 160mcg for the remainder of this cycle if it's safe to do so?
