Combinations - XTC and Beta Blocker

[Pavelo]

SWIM is using a beta blocker called Sandonorm 1mg /a half a pill per day (everyday),so if swims math is right,thats 0.5mg a day/ This medication contains a substance called bopindolol which is some kind of a beta blocker.
Swim is using this med. because he has a little higher pulse rate than average man does have.

Is it safe for SWIM to take ecstasy? Hopefully a MDMA,MDEA or MDA containing pill,not some kind of a crappy full-of-amfet/speed pills.
Lets say he wouldnt take more than one pill that particular night when he wants to roll.
Should he NOT take his beta-bloc. pill that day?

This query is another example of the problem that the federal government banned MDMA into Schedule I. If it were allowed to be used in medicine, then a definitive answer might be found. Such is not the case.

beta-Blockers can be dangerous if combined with amphetamine/cocaine class drugs. What SWIM has at his disposal is chemically close to propanolol - Inderal. That is dangerous if used in combination for a cocaine overdose. Others - Atenolol* - are safe.

So I suggest we wait for a medical researcher to come in and analyize the SWIM situation. For now - tell SWIM to hold on.


* - or so we are convinced for now...

Wow,so bopindolol with MDMA can induce cocaine overdose? That's just awesome...

Ok, SWIM has made some research.
In the flyer packed with the medication /sandonorm/ it says: "Effect of bopindolol grows in the first 2 or 3 weeks of treatment, after a one time use its effect lasts for 24hours."


Although beta blockator effects are sustaining even without taking the medication(but SWIM thinks only in form of a heart habit,not essentialy from the substance effect,but not sure of this),could not taking the medication for one or two days clean the body of the bopindol thus making it safe for using amfet. drugs?
