the most ephedrine i've taken was about 14 in the period of 6 hours (a really
good 'drinking drug' -- allows inhuman ammounts of alcohol consumption). i
didn't consider myself 'close to overdose' whatsoever, although I did notice
my heart was racing for awhile. I can't really comment on the healthiness of
taking such high doses, although I guess it's probably not very good (for
the heart, etc.)
ephedrine HCl is _not_ a good drug for sex though.
