> Sudafed is pseudoephedrine, which was specifically designed to have decongestant effects with greatly weakened Central Nervous System stimulation as compared with ephedrine sulfate. In other words, Sudafed/pseudoephedrine hardly does anything at all to wake you up as compared to bronkaid tablets. To me, 2 bronkaid tablets (50 mg ephedrine sulfate) taken with one no-doz (200 mg caffeine) seem about equivalent to one of the orange Adderalls 20 mg and is a good alternative if you don't have access to Dexedrine, Ritalin, or Adderall (but these three ADHD medications are far superior to a caffeine/ephedrine combo both in wakefulness, efficacy, and focusing power).If you have trouble getting up for work in the morning, the best thing to do is to put a glass of water, a 200 mg caffeine pill, and two bronkaid caplets next to your bed. Set your alarm for an hour before you normally get up. When your alarm goes off take the pills and reset your alarm for your normal waking time- Knowing that you get to go to sleep for an hour more is one of life guilty pleasures- about a half an hour to 45 minutes later you will start to feel a tingling situation and you will probably jump out of bed, energized & ready to go before your alarm even goes off!
Note- buy bronkaid tablets instead of primatene tablets b/c bronkaids are twice as strong & cheaper.
