Not sure if it's still possible, but in eastern europe back in 2010s you could buy bottles of liquid ephedrine nose drops without a prescription. The pharmacists would get raw ephedrine and mix it in the back, filling the generic nose drop bottles. Tho they'd only give you 1 a month or so, looking at you suspiciously if you came multiple times in a row.
Back when I was obsessed with sports and being the peak athlete I can be, I'd go to the different pharmacies around town and buy a bunch of nose drops. These would get mixed in with coffee to get a dumb version of EC stack. Not sure if it was worth it, but it definitely had me wired to the gills.

(Both are viruses so antibiotics don't even do anything other than kill the useful bacteria in your body!)
- genocidicbunny 2y agoMany of the eastern-european markets around here have a little mini pharmacy where you can buy stuff that's either stronger than what you can find in the US, or can't be found at all. Especially various topicals, they tend to have versions with 2-5% of the active ingredient whereas most of the equivalents I can find in the US are 1%; Obviously nothing that's controlled/scheduled.
