1 LEGAL EPHEDRINE IN THE USA

2 The legal status of Ephedrine and Ephedra has been a matter of some controversy in the United States over the last decade. One of the byproducts of this controversy is that many individuals do not even know if it is legal or not to buy diet supplements containing these products.

3 While ephedra was banned by the FDA in 2004, ephedrine HCL is still legal for sale in the USA. However, it's sale is controlled by certain regulations put in place by the federal government as well as individual restrictions by most states.

4 When you buy ephedrine hydrochloride in the USA, you must purchase it in pill doses of less than 8 mg. Ephedrine HCL 25 mg products are strictly banned across the country as doses that large can be unsafe when taken multiple times a day.

5 Another restriction found in every state across the country is that you must provide your name, address, and purpose for taking ephedrine when you buy the product.

6 This can be frustrating for those who do not like this information to be shared with the government, but the Food and Drug Administration mandates this to prevent individuals from buying more than a specific amount every month.

7 The final restriction is that the drug cannot be marketed for its weight loss benefits. Instead, it has to be sold and labelled as a hayfever remedy or a nasal decongestant for allergies and colds.

8 Beyond these stipulations, each state may place additional requirements or controls on the sale of the herbal supplement. If you are wondering whether ephedrine HCL is legal in your state, you can view the map provides below to find out.
