Does Clen cause headaches?

I've had a bitch of a headache for 3 days now. Drinking lots of water, but doesn't seem to help much. Neither does 600mg Ibuprofen.. which is odd, because that usually works.

My energy is totally zapped because of it.. haven't been able to train at all.

I just read your thread about when it starts working... well, guess its working.
Never tried clen, but based on what I read ( sure someone will confirm) it is a fairly common side effect.

sucks cuz id like to try it but scared of spending dollars on a product that i cant tolerate

Most ppl i know use it up to 100mg (most ramp up slowly) but never had any issues. BUT everyones differnt and 20mg for you and 50-100 for me might feel the same. No matter what clen is not a nice feeling by any stretch. Jittery, slightly edgy, hot and sweaty as hell, but bottom line is it works. If you can hack the sides and manage them then it will do wonders with a strict diet. But it makes sense that headaches are a common side even though likely not BP related because i rememeber P said clen actually slightly lowers BP like CCH stated.

I remember about 10 years ago or so a buddy was using some and gave me one to test out, well the bonehead didn't tell me till after i popped it that it was some kind of super clen from mexico dosed at 200mcg per tiny mini thin tab. 30 minutes later my head was pounding so hard i thought my head was going to explode then my neck cramped soon followed by my teres major, my jaw muscle and both forearms. I learned a valuable lesson that day too bad it was the hard way. lol

those are the kind of things i was expecting, jittery, hot and sweaty, etc... but so far, just the headaches.. although tonight i have been exceptionally hot, and have been sweating. kinda bizarre though at such a low dose.

lol, thanks man..yeah it sure seems that way.

yikes, that doesnt sound pleasant at all. luckily for me i have liquid so its very easy to measure out.


so anyway, basically headaches are common with clen, and its not dose dependent as everyone reacts differently?

well, i guess i'll stick with it and see how it pans out. if the headaches go away great, but if not i'm not gonna use it cuz missing workouts isn't cool, especially now that im transitioning into a diet.

I get headaches at higher doses, but the shakes are what drive me nuts, I cant even write my name the first day or two on it.

Try Taurine i've various things about Clen leaching Taurine out of the body, never read into but i always use Taurine with it now and i don't get the headaches, 2-5g's a day.

Ok, I'll get some taurine.. I've read a lot of comments about cramping at higher doses, so it's probably a good thing to have anyway, and with any luck it'll help with the headaches... woke up ok today, just about to take another cap so I'll see if the headache comes back.

Thanks

I also get headaches on clen from time to time. I usually get them if i lie down and get up too quickly. I also tend to notice them less when I keep hydrated. Cramps are far worse though. Taurine and tonic water helps.

Oh, haha k.. no worries.

Shit I gotta get some taurine quick.. my legs are frickin cramping up bad right now.. I can't even sleep. Seriously, wtf?? lol... Maybe it's not the clen. Strength was down for squats this last workout, had to drop the weight by 10lbs, it still hurt at that weight. But my legs never ached like this before. If it weren't for the fact that I'm not jittery or energetic I'd suspect the clen is overdosed.

Maybe my legs hurt because of the decrease in carbs.

That same thing happens to me with cialis. Like I have friggin restless leg syndrome or something.

If you are cramping, sodium will usually help. Even while dieting I keep my sodium nice and high till the last week, then I make adjustments. I hate that cramping feeling.
