Title: Ephedrine Banned in Canada??
Post by: ignorance on June 30, 2006, 12:13:19 PM
Is it true? As of May 2006 Health Canada has Banned Ephedrine, Herb and  the 8mg Oral Nasal Decongestant. Whatever the online stores or shops have in stock is all their going to have. I don't believe  what I'm hearing from the fitness shops. I live in Ontario and the GNC,  Nutrition House and Popeyes says it is offically banned and they can't get anymore. So After the GST drops to the 6% mark as of Canada Day I'm stocking up.

I check the Health Canada website here:

And it says that it is approved. I'm confused. Shine some light on this little problem.

Meh, I live in Ontario and I heard this too. Apparently they are cracking down on this across the province, so I asked my bud at his place and he says its ok as he is now going to be getting them thru Quebec (and elsewhere if it comes to that).  So look/ask around for a good source. You'll always be able to find it if you look hard enough. If not, pm me.

How st00pid is that?  25mg pills banned, 8mg okay?  So what's to stop anyone from taking three 8 mg pills at once?  ::)

The reason is to make it harder for the meth cooks.  Eph. is a key element of meth.
