The herbal form, ephedra (or ma huang), is very difficult to acquire in the US, due to recent legislation that banned it's sale. This legislation has been (successfully) challenged in at least one place, but it remains to be seen whether that will have a major affect on its general availability. However, Ephedrine (laboratory produced, non-herbal) is available as an over-the-counter drug. It can be found in some drug stores, although it is easiest to find online. Just grab a web browser and google (or froogle (http://froogle.google.com)) for 'Ephedrine hcl' and you'll find multiple retailers. It is typically sold in 25 mg tablets (a little bit higher than the generally recommended/accepted dose of 20mg, when used for weight loss and athletic performance). It also frequently includes 200mg of guaiffeniesen, a decongestant/expectorant. > Kruse > Carmle, IN > USA -- | Cashell | topher-yahoo@... | Omaha, NE USA +------------------------------------------------+ | Here I stand.

When he ask what the problem is tell him you when you exercise you feel that your airway closes off a little and your mucus starts to get thick. He will have you run in place or do some type of exercise while he leaves the room and then comes back in a few minutes. Anyway when he goes to listen to your breath sounds excel forcefully this while cause a wheezing sound that the Dr will pick up through his stethescope. If he ask if anything has help before tell him you have used ALBUTEROL before and it seemed to do the trick. Chances are you will get a perscription for Albuterol. A couple of puffs before a workout and you will feel your air-way open up and you'll be able to concentrate better to.>>> ***Interesting. I didn't know that it is acceptable to advocate faking health problems to obtain drugs that are appropriately reserved for those who actually NEED them. This is the sort of thing that the group mods should filter out. Rather than obtain controlled substances, perhaps the athlete should be directed to look at their program design and exercise technique. kson, CST Minneapolis, MN USA _www.ClubbellTrainer.com_ (http://www.clubbelltrainer.com/) " Better Living Through Movement.
