What's the difference between ephedra and ephedrine?

I mean in effectiveness. Is it stacked the same, etc.? I know ephedrine is a component of ephedra but which one is the E in an ECA stack? And why is Ephedra a federal offense and ephedrine not?

I'm taking Ephedrine right now for leaning out.  They're these little pills you buy at a gas station for 5 or 6 bucks,  they sell them as a "bronchodilator and expectorant."  truck drivers use them to stay awake, and i use them when i diet.  right now I take two tabs, (total of 50 mg) three times a day,  quite effective at raising the heart rate and suppressing appetite.
