Hi. My friend bought these new energy pills, OxyElitePro. They contain 100mg of caffeine along with Proprietary Blend Bauhinia Purpurea L (leaf and Pod) (Standarized for Bauhiniastatins 1-4), Bacopa Monniera Leaf), 1,3-Dimethylamylamine (Geranium [stem], Cirsium Oligophyllum (Whole Plant Extract), Rauwolscine (Rauvolfia Canescens L [leaf and Root]. Recently he s started cutting open the capsules and snorting them. When i asked why he said the effects would onset faster and he just liked the feeling. Other then the obvious destruction snorting anything does to your nose, what are the other negative side effects, if any.
Hi, Yes, it may cause some serious side effects. Oxyelite-Pro is a dietary supplement promoted for weight loss. However, its safety and efficacy has not been established on any scientific studies. Apart from causing necrosis of the nasal mucosa if snorted, its use is also linked to liver injury resulting in hepatitis. It also contains fluoxetine which is an antidepressant which may cause sleep disturbances, sexual dysfunction and seizures. In view of the above the Food and Chat Doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
