    ECY is bad enough when it comes to risks, adding a diuretic would put at great risk for BP issues and various other health issues. Keeping in mind that the people who did die from ephedrine, had issues with lack of hydration during exercise. So adding a diuretic to ECY is one of the last things you would want to do.

    thanx bro, but could you clear up how risky ecy would be at 2 weeks of use. Also what do you think would be a better choice to lose those last 5lbs of fat. ECY or a dieuretic?

    A diuretic won't help you lose fat at all. Its a diuretic, it will help you shed water weight. This will not be permanent either, and each subsequent use of taraxatone decreases the effectiveness of the drug itself.

    Clearly ECY would be more effective at lypolysis.

    Yep, a diuretic is just cosmetic. It will do nothing for actual fat loss.

    use together is likely to cause elecrolyte imbalance and dehydration. extreme care should be taken when mixing stimulants and diuretics

    I personally don't understand the reasoning for using diuretics unless your nearing a competion very soon. Its only water weight, and not worth the possible health complications IMO. Just use fat burners, drop the diuretics.

    Diuretics are temporary cosmetics. There is no point unless your competing. Try drinking more water.
