Question about EC stack dosing

I ****ed up, twice already. Yea, I know im an idiot if i cant follow directions.

Yesterday I took 12.5mg of E and 200mg of C at 9pm. stayed up til 5am. haha, oh well.

Today I took 25mg of E and 100mg of C @ 12:30pm. I was supposed to take only 12.5mg of E. should I skip my next E dosage?

Im following this:

Dosing based on 20 or 25 mg ephedrine HCL pills (or ephedrine sulfate)

Note: 1E = 20 or 25 mg ephedrine
and .5E = 10 or 12.5 mg ephedrine

I am assuming caffeine tablets of 200 mg. So 1C = 200 mg, .5C = 100 mg

The caffeine tablets do not break in half well, approximate is fine.

A pill splitter works well on the ephedrine (can get at any pharmacy).

Day 1 - This day you just take 1 dose to test whether you are hypersensitive to ephedrine (very rare). The dose will be .5E .5C
- symptoms of fast heart rate, and slight jitters are normal - like the feeling you get from having a lot of coffee.

Day 2-3 - You take 3 doses of .5 E .5C minimum 4 hours apart. I suggest keeping it so your last dose is at least 6 hours away from your bedtime.

Day 4-7 - Your dosing will be 1E 1C, .5E .5C, .5E .5C That is, you take full dose for your first dose only.

Day 8-14 - 1E 1C, 1E 1C, .5E .5C

Day 15 and onward - 1E 1C 3x/day

If you don't feel any problems (anxiety/jittery), I don't see a problem with taking another one. Just listen to your body.

Should be a maximum of 75E/600C in a day. I've seen some people say 100E max a day but why take more if it already works fine? Don't fix it if it's not broken.

I would just take 25e and 200c 1 more time 4 hours from 1230 and just stop at that today since you dont want to take it too late.

makes sense.

I think ill do another 12.5E and 100C 4 hours from last dosage.

So what have you guys seen as the most beneficial time cycle? 2 weeks on 2 weeks off?

I've only been using it for about 8 days so far and I'm still ramping up the doses. So far I'm at 25E/200C 2x a day and 12.5E/200C 1x a day. I'll use this dosing tomorrow and maybe the day after before I go to 25E/200C 3x a day. Still debating if I should pyramid back down or just crash after running full dose for 3-4 days. I'm not sure how soon I can buy another box without them thinking I'm cooking meth. I might have my room mate go buy me more.

I thought it was safe to run for at least a month unless I missed something in my research, so I wasn't planning on cycling off for at least another 3 weeks.

If you find after 4 weeks you are getting to jittery or lost of appetite just cycle off the ephederine for 2 weeks but still keep taking the caffeine since you wont get any withdrawal symptoms from ephedrine. then slowly start back up again when you restart. 6-8 weeks continuously tops for an EC stack depending on the individual. I would top off at 75mgs a day unless you are a heavy individual.

Appetite suppression seems to fade around the 2-3 week mark. After that, your body may adapt to the stimulant properties. The fat burning capabilities do not decrease.


I'd stay on 3-4 weeks, then take at least 2 weeks off. The longer that you stay on, the worse the withdrawal symptoms.
