Are the pills you`re taking 200mg pills? Because if they are that`s 400mg of caffeine and is probably why you feel sluggish, too much caffeine does the opposite effect for most people.

If i were you id take a couple weeks off the caffeine before going back up to one to give your body a break from the stims, not that its gonna kill you or anything lol, but i think if you take a week or two off it might be more beneficial because youre probably becoming used to the caffeine. I know personally if i use stims for a while i have to take time off just because they arent as effective.

Why cant you take the shotgun when on Accutane? Blood pressure?

I'd be interested to know this as well since hes still taking caffeine and other stims.... My brother just started Accutane and im not sure if this was brought to his attention by his doctor... I'd be interested to know why.

Im not saying I cant im just saying I dont really want to, I was on it in the summer and it worked great...huge gains... but I broke out alot on my face and after I stopped it went away after bout a month... ya ya i know shotgun is not suppose to cause acne but i feel it did for me...
when i talked to my pharmcist she said that it probably made my insulin levels go up and i was producing more sebrum oil.. or some shit if that makes sense.. sorry im tired as shit right now

im just rattled to take anything that might **** shit up.... i do know blood pressure is a big thing on accutane as well as keeping your liver in good shape.. like no drinking and stuff
