ECA and benadryl

[flabbywussy]

Well you have an ideal cold and alergy combination!!! Benadryl dries up your nose, ephedra is a nasal decongestant and causes your sinuses to shrink and open up for better breathing. The caffiene counter acts the benedryl's sleepyness and aspirin gets rid of the aches and pains and headaches.

i thought ephedra was used to open bronchial tubes for asthma

it does that too but the opening effect works all the way up into the sinuses... if you look at ingrediants for nasal decongestant... the active ingrediant is also psuedoephedra which is also the same magic ingrediant all the crystal meth makers are after. There is a sinister second reason for the FDA ban on ephedra was you make crystal meth and other anthetamine products essentially from ephedra.

i knew about psuedoephedra,but thought it was different from the bronchial version. also knew about the meth thing. you can also make meth out of vicks inhalers i read too. that's why they were banned in some states not because of "raver" use.
