You could buy Xenadrine and Hydroxycut off the shelf at Walmart or Mini-Thins at any shitty gas station in the 90s-early 2000s. That shite was legalized speed. We were popping them like candy in my early days in the military. On mission and have to stay up for 2,3,4 days... no worries, grab the ephedra.

The crash sucked arse but I wish I could still go down to the local Haji gas station and by a bottle of Mini-thins for $5. Good times...


It's still around, but only has a tiny bit of ephedrine in it. It is nothing like what used to exist.

Was clutch playing sports after taking them

I'm scared the shite out there now would have fentanyl in it.


This. Even if it doesn’t have fentanyl, coke these days is shitty. Long gone are the days of 80% plus pure coke

You’re lucky if it’s 40% these days and the cutting agents do more damage than the cocaine. shite like Levamisole that can cause tissue death and literally rot your nose/face away. And since it’s weaker you have to do more volume to achieve desired result, when used to a key bump got you geeked for an hour. Now a gator tail wears off in like 15 min. Not worth it I haven’t done it in a long time

I member kids eating freaking 15 Mini-Thins a day. It was all the rage in the 90s. Back then I was more into smoking grass.

Didn't like uppers until I was older. I remember in the early 2000s when I figured out that vicodin would numb the feeling in your dick and you could take a vigra to keep it hard. Bet there are a few women out there that still think I am naturally an everlasting sex machine lol

Costco had some kickass diet pills in the early 90's.
200 or so for a $1.99 or some nonsense.
Used to slam a few for instant energy then hit the gym.
I was in the best shape of my life, lol.

2 ephedrines, a 20 oz Dew, a pack of cigs.

Drove all over the southwest hopped up on that shite in the early-mid 00s.

Nowadays you can buy Bronkaid from the pharmacy OTC. Have to scan yoir ID and sign for it, they have limits on how much you can buy in a certain number of days.

It isn't the same as old school ephedrine but the closest OTC pill I have found. Pretty clean high.

You can add a caffeine pill and baby aspirin for that BCA stack.

I was working in a convenience store back then. Came in to work one night, and they all had been taken away. We had some peeved customers for a while.

Did Ripped Fuel have ephedrine in it? Took two of those before rugby practice once. I couldn’t catch my breath during warm up laps. Sat out the rest of practice.

Sheeiit. We used to call it Orange Rage.

Went to GNC with meathead buddy.
Buddy: “Hey yall have any Ultimate Orange?”
Guy: “No it was discontinued. Was making people’s liver bleed or something.”
Buddy: [Thinking.]
Buddy: “Any idea where I can find it?”

OG hydroxy cut had straight up ephedra herbal extract I think. Chinese version.

Primatene has epinephrine not ephedrine.

Bronkaid has ephedrine sulfate though. Pharmaceutical made from ephedra.
