    1.  You are not supposed to drink the whole bottle.  

    2.  You have a body chemistry like my daughter.  Nothing puts her to sleep except certain meds.

    3.  Don't chase it with coffee.

    NO NO NO NO NO NO

    If you take too much, it reverses and WAKES YOU UP LIKE SPEED.  

    I did that when I was young.  I was miserable and if one capful was good, naturally to my addict mind, two or three would be much better.

    I could not sleep.  I was speeding my brains out.  AND SICK.  STILL SICK.  LOL

  • No it doesn't. They took the stimulant out of it years ago.

    I took it years ago.  I sped very very fast.

    Maybe OK BOOM needs the speed.  Maybe that's why she can't sleep.  Maybe she has ADHD or something.

  • It's a common believe myth the stimulants relax and act as downs in ADHD patients.   Total myth,  that's not how the meds work.  They work exactly the same way as they do others. It's just that intense  focus and determination are effects of amphetamines.

    You have to take the recommended dose and make yourself lay down, close yours eyes until it kicks in.

    If I take it and stay active, it will not make me tired. They changed something in it. It used to be much more effective.

    You may be immune to the sedative chemical in it. (doxylamine succinate). Try Benadryl and acetaminophen. This post was edited by Element 99 at January 5, 2020 9:43 AM MST

  • LOL!  Extra strength Nyquil and Tennesee whiskey.  This should be a legit drink.  I'm ordering one next time I go to "Chili,s".
