    Sinus Congestion From Alpha-Burn or PLCAR?


    Does anyone know if this is a possible reaction to either of these or am I just imagining things.

    Im getting some congestion as well. I think it is related to the alpha-burn, since it started about two weeks ago( about the time i started the A-B). Plcar has been a staple of mine for over a year and ive never had sinus problems from anything else in my stack. For me though, the positive effects of A-B are far outweighing the occasional stuffiness.

    That's also what I was thinking, because there are days where the congestion isn't as bad, but still there, possibly due to A-B still being in my system. I tolerate YHCL fine, but wanted to give A-B a run to see if it stacked up any better to regular YHCL. I notice that A-B doesn't blunt appetite or stimulate me as much as YHCL, maybe I am a non responder?

    Both my wife and I have gotten the nasal congestion. I figured it was the AB. It's not terrible, but is noticeable.

    i think that i've been having some mild nasal congestion as well. had me a little worried, thought that my adenoids were regrowing.

    the alpha burn has been fantastic so far, coupled with lean xtreme and the dave palumbo diet i'm leaner than ever!

    Yup - same here. I'm going to not take the AB for this extended weekend and see what happens.

    I'm getting it as well. I think I'm going to forgo my second dose and see if it helps.

    Getting sinus congestion as well. Didn't even consider it was the AB though. Thought it was allergies.

    Any ideas why AB could possibly cause it?

    This was actually a noted side-effect in a ED study done with Yohimbine years ago.Seethe link below:

    I was thinking that the congestion is similar to what you would get from ED drugs? I didn't dose AB over the weekend and noticed on sunday that there was hardly any congestion at all. When I do take it the sinus effects are pretty immediate and annoying. And I haven't seen the positive effects to justify how I feel. Which is a bummer because I was excited to finally try alpha yohimbine.

    2 caps on empty stomach at 6am-ish. Cardio. Eat about 1.5 hours after morning dose. 2 more caps about 8-10 hours later about an hour after a meal.

    I did 1 cap twice a day for the first week, but wasn't getting the motivation/focus/drive effect some people were getting so I bumped it up. I was getting the congestion that first week but figured it was allergies and didn't pay much attention. But the issue came up around the time I started taking AB and pretty much stopped after a few days of not taking AB.
