A babe before walking will first stumble and fall many times but NEVER gives up until he succeeds. Always remember, ultimately, to never follow any person's belief. Your relationship with God is between you and God. If nothing else, remember this: religion = subservience, control and conformity, the same template as EVERY government "Most believers would kill truth if truth threatened their religion." L. K. Washburn "This crime called blasphemy was invented by priests for the purpose of defending doctrines not able to take care of themselves." Robert Ingersoll "If anyone wants to know how God feels, it's a warm light as if the sun is poking through dark clouds and lifting your spirits with pure joy." |

Anonymous User ID: 750018 United States 10/21/2010 09:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I do appreciate all the comments from the ones suggesting alternatives. I have tried most and honestly they don't work for me. I may try the peppermint thing later but I'm planning on recording tonight so I need the proven treatment. Ephedra works, that lousy chemical they designed to replace it in OTC medicines does Nothing. Ephedra is fast, reliable and I'm not taking enough of it to have a stroke. Quoting: entropyJust get a friend to fork over their drivers license to the clerk & pay for your sudafed. BTW, generic sudafed is much cheaper) I buy the maximun allowed; 96 of the little red pills. Sometimes in spring and fall when my allergies are bad, I do need more slightly sooner than 30 days. So I have somebody else buy it for me. They do elevate blood pressure a bit so be aware if that is a problem for you. Also, taking too many of them (4 or 5 a day for an extended period of time was too much for me) you might start coughing up small amounts of blood like I did. Turns out the medication dried up & broke some small blood vessels resulting in leakage. I agree the replacement ingredient is worthless. |

Works wonder to PREVENT it from happening. It's amazing how something simple like correcting vitamin D deficiency (widespread problem) could almost completely prevent cold, flu, sinus infection, etc. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1136750 United States 10/21/2010 09:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Another thing, I still have a lot of those pills from 2008! I relied on them to get through the day in the old days then I heard about vitamin D so I tried it last year and never got sick! I have a lot of medicine still not being used. Lol. That saved me a lot of money. Vitamin D is pretty dirt cheap. vitacost.com sells them pretty cheap. A year supply will cost you in the 20s I think. That's all it took me to not get sick. Pretty amazing, huh? |

"In the United States, section 711 of the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 reclassifies phenylpropanolamine, pseudoephedrine and ephedrine as Schedule Listed Chemicals (SLC).[9] SLCs were reduced by the Federal pertransaction sales limit from 9 grams to 3.6 grams. The amount recently proposed by the Administration requires behind-the-counter storage or locked cabinet storage." [link to en.wikipedia.org] |

My father, sister, mother and me all have bad "hay-fever". We would use up cold meds relatively fast. When they started putting the cold meds behind the counter we were told you can get two box's per week for a family with no issues, much more and they start questioning. |

Yes, seriously. From what I have read, if you take a lot of the pills and use chemicals to break them down, you end up with speed. It is a byproduct of the cold meds. To an extreme, people would go all over town buying out stores supplies, to make cheap speed. This is "the excuse" of why you are only allowed two box's per week before it looks funny. |

I get it naturally from time to time, but I've found that if I sleep only 5 hours a night for 3 nights, then take 30ml of NyQuil cough syrup (yes, the cough syrup, not the regular green NyQuil), go to bed on night #4, then force myself to get up after only 5 hours again, stay awake for 3 hours then take a nap from 12:00pm to 2:00pm, I'll get the deepest, most bizarre sleep paralysis ever. I discovered this by accident but I use it now to experience this altered state. It's not that scary anymore, now it's just kind of fun. |
Bill User ID: 15824303 United States 05/10/2012 04:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, there is an issue with the over-protective DEA, as this medication is used to make Meth by a few people in MISSISSIPPI, although the mostly blow themselves up trying. Anyway, getting a prescription from your doctor for an over the counter drug may seem silly, but it works. I renew my script every month, go to my pharmacy and they give me (3) boxes with (20) 120MG Sudafed and I no longer have to show them my driver's license or sign some stupid register. Yes, I am probably being monitored by the DEA; everyone in the world is being monitored; at least, for me, I know it and I have no illusions about Democracy or Freedom here in the USA... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 62214538 United States 08/27/2014 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It IS NOT a crime to buy a million pounds of sudafed. Most retail outlets limit purchase to a preset amount as per federal regulations. If you make the rounds to various retail outlets buying the limit, it's going to go into a system that alerts drug task forces. It is only a crime to conspire to manufacture drugs with it. Very difficult to prove it if you're not, but you've gotta wonder, why else would one buy a large amount of psuedo-ephedrine? |
