could taking 5 mg of Desoxyn

with say 25 mg of atenolol Completely prevent the negative cardiovascular effects?

For example could I take the doses of the above meds and have my heart rate no higher than 72, contracting with normal force and no angina?

I realize Desoxyn is less peripherally activating than Dex--but can anyone compare on what relative order?

I'm a guy who almost died taking 5 mg Dex over 3 days (15 mg total), twice, so I need to know if realistically a beta-1 selective beta blocker could truly make Desoxyn or Dex safe in such a case? If so it would be a life changing thing for me. But the potential risks are so big that I don't want to tempt fate unnecessarily. And the docs have no insight comparable to PB.

mmmmmmm

That is really conterveral to think. Desoxyn is rarely used since it is the strongest amphetamine. But if you are prescribed it, then thats fine. Desoxyn is less harsh on the per. stimulation, less than dexamphetamine.

Thats my put.

Take Care i've got to post something simular to this.

Matt

Not going to attempt any more stimulants. It's hard to make peace with the idea of not being able to take something that so positively affects your quality of life, but I will.

Maybe I'll find something else and maybe I won't. It's the being in limbo that's tough. Anyhow, it will all be good.

Thanks for the input Matt. I enjoy reading
