>>Just don't get addicted to ephedrine.
well..yeah, he has a point
DON'T take to much, as with anything, start dosage low, etc...don't take it often, if you have heart problems, don't put it up your @$$ and keep away from small children yadda yadda.
that said...i would find it impossible for ephedrine to be really, well, addictive, since it's not really...fun or pleasurable in any way at all to take...it's useful as a diet drug because it raises metabolism and decreases appetite, and is safer than most diet drugs..(but then again, if you need to lose weight, exercise)...if you wanna stay awake, it's good....if you want a pleasant buzz, take caffiene and vitamin c!
