Title: Primatene or Bronkaid?
Post by: Meso_z on February 25, 2011, 10:57:19 PM
Whats the best?

Primatene is hcl (Which i believe is the "real" ephedrine), while Bronkaid is sulf.

Primatene didn't do anything for me..I prefer Bronkaid. I take it for my big runs outside.

Not sure what you mean by "real" as far as ephedrine HCL vs. sulfate, but there IS a difference in absorption time and amounts as BB mentioned.

If by "real" you mean herbal ephedra, then no - you won't find that at the pharmacy.

Some companies are now selling ephedra products, but they're actually using a substandard derivative; not the good stuff that used to be available.
Then again, that's why they're legally able to sell it.

I mean the version that is "banned". Its HCL, i think.

primatene works way better for me....i take 12.5mg every few hours instead of the bronkaid two or three times a day...

Didn't have any luck with Primatene at all. Bronkaid has been the tried and true stuff since GH mentioned it here years ago.

I've tried a huge dose of Primatene, and it didn't even compare, for me.

Were you using it for fat-loss, energy, or both?

Both. Mainly for fat loss. But I'm off the ilk that if I don't feel it, it probably ain't working well either.

Firstly sulfate (bronkaid) has a much shorter half life than HCL. It is weaker on a mg basis and also lasts a shorter time (worse for fat burning).

I have used boxes and boxes of both and legit primatene blows bronkaid away.

Also keep in mind generic primatene is pseudoephedrine, not HCL (no matter what the box says).

Primatene is the shizznit.

Are you guys using this stuff because you have asthma or just because of the stimulant effects?

I did cardio on MucinexD yesterday and felt like I could have gone on forever.
