You might be able to find Bronkaid at your local pharmacy, but ordering it online is the easiest. I've had success with getting it (Vasopro) and caffeine from here ( http://www.discountanabolics.com/). Recent studies have shown that aspirin only has a measurable effect on very obese people taking the stack. Anyone who is not very obese can take the aspirin, but it won't really do anything except chew up your stomach.
I don't know if it is causing my reduced appetite (that may be from all the protein), but I've been taking it since fall and this is the first school year that I have NOT gained weight into the mid 140's by May in a long time. And I've got a good energy boost while I'm on it.

Before I started taking EC I went to the doctor, had an EKG and an echocardiogram done, and made sure of my cardiac health before starting. I also don't have blood pressure problems (other than it being too low at times) or thyroid problems. Positive side effects for me are less nasal congestion and reduced vaginal dryness from the expectorant (I'm postmenopausal and not on HRT).
When I first started with EC I used 1/4 tablet for the first 3-4 days, then went to 1/2 for several days, and then to the full 25 mg tablet.
