Is there a difference between the herb ephedrine and the synthesized chemical ephedrine..as in the analog chemical pseudo-ephedrine used for cold pills ..by big bucks 'over the counter' interests who are always trying to get drugs approved so you don't have to get an expensive prescription from the big bucks medical establishment? [and sold 'as' methamphetamine by unscuplulous dealers to people who don't know the difference between a cold pill, meth, caffine pills and any other form of stimulant]
Here in SEK there are tons of little meth labs out in the rural areas. They actually use the pseudophed tablets as part of the base of the meth, mixed with various chemicals into a soup that is then crystalized into meth. So they don't sell the cold pills instead of meth, they use them in producing meth. Its one of the main ingredients. Thats why those of us with legitimate allergic type need for pseudophed, or its cheaper copycat versions, can only buy 24 or so at a time now - which I often go through in 4 days, and is much more expensive than when I used to be able to buy a bottle of 96 or more of them. Frustrating. Plus, you have to buy it at the pharmacy window - its not on the shelves, so you have to stand in line for fifteen minutes or so to get the stuff. And if you're back within a week, which i am during allergy season, they look at you real funny and ask questions. Groan. Joy
