Discontinuing of Ketotifen syrup was created by admin

News is that the Ketotifen syrup products from Adcock-Ingram will be discontinued. Adco-Ketotifen and Adco-Zetofen.

Only the Zaditen tabs will still be available, but at almost R400 for 60x 1mg it's not cheap.

Nomad (*spit*) has 2mg tabs at about half that price for 30. Still damn expensive compared to the Adco syrup. Unless LP comes to our rescue, I guess it's time to raid the Dischem shelves :unsure:

I'm happy with Betasleep at the moment, but if LP comes up with a generic ketotifen I would definitely like to try it. Couldn't be bothered with Nomad overpriced, underdosed shit.

It's used to clean up your receptors. Mostly used in conjucntion with clen.

Ketotifen is sold as a asthma medication for kids. Brand name zetofen - tastes exactly like cough mixture. One of it's other properties is that it allows more beta-2 receptors to become available thus allowing clen & ephedrine to be run for long periods (clen & eph cause downregualtion of beta-2 receptors).

haha, no, but I wouldn't mind being one - I think I would have to find a reason to prescribe myself a free year coarse of humatrope somehow, lol.

Ya, I'm using ketotifen now (zetofen syrup). I've been running clen/heat for about a month now and I can still feel the thermogenic effects. Usually it takes clen/heat to burn out my receptors after 6 - 8 weeks of continued use without ketotifen or betasleep. So I will reevaluate things in about 3 weeks.

So what, does betasleep also ease up the receptors like the ketotifen.
And doubles as a sleeptab.

Yes, it also up-regulates the b2 receptors.

Wouldn't say its the best sleeping tab around, but it does make getting to sleep a bit easier, especially on tren. Just be aware that it can make you groggy the next day (i think Koe can testify to this).

The best is to check for yourself if the clen is still working. The usual sides, but most important the temp raise. I sometimes go a week of while on betasleep just to make sure. But hey, it differs from person to person.

Yeah, one cap every night. You only need to start betasleep after week two, or when HEAT sides dissapate like iMan mentioned. From then on you can run it continuously without break.

haha, ya, a few years ago I was doing a project in Witbank and managed to score a few bottles of Ephedrine HCL at the local pharmacy. They didn't even know that it had been made Schedule 5.

That's the way here bud, I'm originally from durbs you can imagine how frustrating it is, mostly the lack of service at almost all retail stores, delays inservice delivery. A backward mentality, but hey here is where the money is at so I'm here. Anyways home is wherever my family is as far as I'm concerned.
I really hope LP come to the rescue on this one the betasleep I can't use it makes me lethargic the next day, and any other alternatives are way too costly

I really liked Witbank when I was there, but you right it is a bit backward. I know you said that you manage some engineering portfolios, do you do any work for the Ferrometals (Samancor Chrome).
