I'm very upset that they're pulling off phenylpropanolamine...I've used it in a prescription format with guafenisin (sp?) for at least l0 years, and have never had problems with it. I absolutely abhor pseudoephedrine and will not take it if I can help it (it makes my already fast pulse rate way too high). Will check out ephedra....but isn't it a precursor to pseudoephedrine? Without the PPA, it's an ugly sight (snot everywhere, lungs, chest, dripping) for me!
