Okay, I may be laughed off the forum for asking this :o but nevertheless I wanted to try anyways and see if anyone would know. Recently a friend of mine gave me and my family an entire box of this new Russian combo-herbal drink named Tanguska Blast. Granted there is enough hype in the sales pitch to render this stuff snake oil, but even with the exagerated claims I do feel people are getting positive benefits from this stuff. I would like to try it, but I worry about how it might effect me while taking Adderall. I only take (1) 15mg XR capsule roughly 3-4 times a week. My question is for those who have tried this stuff while taking ADD medications.

What's in the stuff? Do you have an ingredient list handy? I've never heard of this stuff.

Anyway, I'm all for alts, but you have to be careful with herbs, just because they are natural does not mean they are safe. They can be dangerous. Be aware of contraindications. Some you cannot take long term without serious effects or in combination with meds. Best to do your reading and research as well.

P.S. Please don't laugh at me folks...(lol) :o . I didn't have to spend a penny for this stuff. My friend is a pro-basketball player and gave everyone a case of this stuff at a bar-b-que function last week.

I tried to take the Tunguska Blast for 3 days while on adderall, and it seemed to negate the effects of the adderall. I became very hyper and also got my aches and pains back. So my recomendation, based on my brief experince, is to not take it while on adderall.
