Don't waste you money on those pills .. I can tell you the side effects of basically every over the counter weight loss pill ... from experience ..
Ephedrine and / or MaHuang is a natural caffiene .. caffiene is known to stall this way of eating .. no matter what LC plan you're on ...
The side effects it created in me .. were .........
1) It made me horribly irritable, and short tempered
2) It created heart palpatations
3) It affected my nerves
4) I couldn't sleep
5) It created muscle injuries, because you feel invincable
6) and finally .. it (they) messed up my liver .. which took me 2 years to repair ..
Of course it's your choice if you want to use them, but as for asking opinions .. I would say -- don't waste your money ..

Sorry -- I just feel horribly strongly, that if a medication is not precribed by a physician, it can do more damage than good ..
Hope you surf around the site there's alot of knowledgable people here ...and welcome ..
