Fluoxetine (TN Prozac) is a serotonin reuptake inhibitor.  It is Rx'd
for depression and individuals with OCD.  As far as antidepressants
are concerned it's RELATIVELY safe.  That is, its 'side' effects are
much less noxious than the more "traditional" antidepressants like the
tricyclics and monoamine oxidase inhibitors.

Fluoxetine can cause one's anxiety to skyrocket and some people lose
weight, and some gain.  Its half-lives are very long. (takes about 5-6
weeks for it to get out of your system--and it's still not gone)

It has an active metabolite called norfluoxetine which also has a long
half-life.

It is similar in action to sertraline (Zoloft), although the jury's
still out on the specifics of the action on the serotonin system for
both of these drugs.

A few years ago, there was some controversy in the media and in the
medical literature over fluoxetine's tendency to provoke or increase
suicidal thoughts and attempts.  There is no clear answer to this one.

Personally, I experienced it, along with an increase in anxiety and a
lovely agitated state--hate the stuff.

Do a medline search at your local health sciences library.  Look for
articles focusing on fluoxetine and its adverse and toxic effects.  I
did and was quite (unpleasantly) surprised.

Gook luck

It's Butyl Nitrate. It's also sold as "Men's Locker Room". It used to be 
popular in dance clubs for a quick intense rush. It smells like glue. 
sometimes gives people headaches, sometimes make people sick, probably

What are the official qualifications for the "Foaming at the mouth anti-
drug" posting on alt.drugs?

1) Subject title should be very offensive
2) Poster indicates that he is "sick" of "druggies" 
3) The downfall of society blamed on drugs. (cost to taxpayers is optional
   but earns bonus points)
4) Poster must present very little support for his angry claims. 
5) Any support presented (and I again remind you that support detracts 
   from the quality of the art) must be extremely ridiculous.
6) The death penalty must be invoked.
7) Poster must self-censor some of his language by replacing letters
   with asterisks.

So let us judge the posting titled "YOU FUCKERS," composed by a merry
prankster who used the account of the hapless and unsuspecting "WOODWARD"

 Title: excellent in this category.  The use of all capitals is very
   effective.
 cost to taxpayers & encouraging kids to use drugs--these are true to
   form, but not very creative.  Certainly arguments which will not be
   followed upon, so they do at least get some points.
 Quip about lethal injection is creative, since most "foaming essayists"
   support shooting.  The use of irony is also good.
 Self-censoring the word fuckers (f**ckers) is excellent, especially comical
   since the word was left intact in the title.  Not as good as ol' 
   whatsisname back when who gave us the term "dr*gs"

This posting gets a 7.5.  It was done with awareness of the essentials,
but because the "foaming post" is an art form about on the level of 
paint-by-numbers, I expect more creativity.  Maybe you should try another
in a couple weeks?

After reading a recent posting on MDMA, I was struck by the similarity
of the reported effects of this drug with the effects I have experienced
after eating mushrooms of the Psylocybe(spel?) species.

The initial rush, 'euphoria', insights and duration of these effects seems to
correspond almost exactly.  However, the article on MDMA stated that
MDMA has a low visual distortion factor, unlike the mushies.

I wonder if any research has been done on MDMA vs. psylocibin.  MDMA is known
to be neurotoxic -- perhaps the similar effects of these drugs also
means similar side-effects such as toxicity.

If you had actually read the entire string before you made comments,
you might have noted that no one said marijuana *cures* anything,
asthma or not.  The claim made was that marijuana can help relieve 
asthma.  Careful note was also made of the fact that for some asthma
suffers, smoke of any kind brings on an attack.  Thus smoking
marijuana is not an option for those people.  So it might be dangerous
as well, though I rather doubt your story at this point.

So you're right that marijuana doesn't cure asthma.  Read before

    Its trade name is Prozac.  Look it up in the PDR or any other handbook
of prescription drugs.  It's primarily prescribed as an antidepressant, but
has also shown efficacy in OCD.

Maybe you're using the wrong kind of soil.

Topsoil is bad -- it does not drain well.
Potting soil is good.
Peat moss is even better.

Be sure to keep everything moist, but not completely saturated.  Hemp roots
rot without oxygen.

WATCH OUT WITH THE EPHEDRINE. Some of my friends enjoyed doing the 4-
or-5 ephedrine thing until they heard of somebody who, after doing this
three or four different times, experienced lung collapse - not pleasant.

I think there are definite dangers to doing ephedrine in large amounts
