Id like to think so, the stuff is like nitro for your pancreas. That buzz like feeling you experience is a huge cortisol dump a.k.a adrenaline.

By memory i think caffeine has a half life of 6 hours so if you have 100mg after 6 hours it will be 50mg. 1,3-Dimethylamylamine HCL i am not so sure of but wouldn't surprise me if it lasted longer.

IMO, unless you are going insanely high on the stimulant dose, there is no concern here.
