Harm Reduction Recreactional dose of Ephedrine Hcl?

[chrisalt]

Can you use Ephedrine Hcl for REC uses? and is if you can what would the Recreactional dose of Ephedrine Hcl be? Also anyone use it for work purposes sometimes?

Ephedrine is not considered recreational by most (read: all) people. I use it to help with studying and writing papers but even then it is only slightly more effective than caffeine. The fact that its heavy on the norepinephrine release means it is not nearly as "recreational" as amphetamine is.

If you're used to taking amphetamines, ephedrine will be a disappointment. Ephedrine HCL isn't very common in my part of the world (ephedrine sulfate is)...so the dosage may be a bit off (I don't remember the conversion ratio off the top of my head). Start out with 10-25mg.

^ this. 100%

I like it with a cup of coffee when I get up early to get stuff done but I wouldn't call it recreational in the least. Also, when you overdo it, it feels practically the same as a panic attack. All the peripheral overstimulation of amps without any of the fun. I find it can be quite anxiogenic (anxiety-producing) as well.

I generally take 37.5 or 50mg of ephedrine HCL unless I have been using it daily in which case I might increase that slightly. My girlfriend who is a tiny person generally takes 25mg. I would certainly not exceed 25mg to start regardless of size, I could definitely feel 25mg when I first tried it but I have a slight permanent-tolerance now because I've used it regularly at times.

no recreational value whatsoever, you'll prolly have more fun drinking tea

Yeah, it is not recreational in big doses. It gives good feeling with low doses but when you overdo it... well you will only feel like having panick attack as above poster said. I'm not sure how it would effect if you take some beta-adrenergic antagonist with it like propranolol and took bigger doses then. Maybe it could have some psychoactive properties without heart associated side effects but would it be worth it? No?

I took it onetime too much with coffeine and BP and HR were so high that I was little scared. Was training with it and sweated like a pig. End of training I was allready thinking I got some brain hemorrhage because of sharp pain in head and fainting feeling. I don't suggest to try.

If you are a kid and have not tried and real stims to compare to you might find it rec in some way like i did.
If not then it sucks balls.

Dosage wise we would fill half a cap with pure crystals and that was "fun" at the time.
We where totally uneducated and took a chance, no idea if this is a safe dose or not so check elsewhere for this info as well.
