Hi, I'm trying lose 15 - 20 pounds and also get stronger. I was thinking about taking xenadrine because a lot of people say it works. I also hear a lot of bad things about it. Does anyone have any experience with it, or maybe some alternatives that don't have ephedrine or so much caffeine? I'm currently using protein to gain muscle too.

Thanks for any help

I've found it doesn't help much. Does decrease your appetite a little and makes you a little jittery. As usual the advertising makes it sound better than it is.

I wouldn't take this drug because it contains epherdine, which makes u jittery, epherdine is a methanphedamine *sp?* that messes with the central neverous system, thus effecting your nerves and makes your hands shake and stuff, do u get those systems? also guarana can do this....these aren't all that safe of drugs, i don't take them...i found the best way to lose weight is take FIBER and drink a lot of water, and exercise most importantly!

Methamphetamines are synthetic (man made) illegal drugs.

There's a post on the weight loss board of people talking about their experience with Xenadrine.
