I reckon it's safe. I don't think the two would interfere with one another in a dangerous way, although the fat burning effects would probably be negated almost fully. I'd say just don't bother taking it before drinking.

Actually depending how high a dose you are taking, and how ong before you drink, yes it could harm you. It is the same as drinking an energy drink with alcohol. Think about it, and eca or energy drink is an upper (so your heart starts racing) now alcohol is a depressant (now your heart slows down). If your heart gets confused enough it will stop. Hense the reason many bars will no longer sell drinks such as red bull and vodka or bull runs and if they do, many will limit it. There have been many cases of younger people having heart attacks from taking either ephedra before they went out (becuase they wanted that extra energy) or drinking an energy drink as well. Just becareful if you do and always in moderation!

I take 25mg Ephedra HCL/Cup of coffee/300mg asprin, @ 5:30am, 12:30ishPM, and around 6pm. And I would be drinking if I did, around 9-10pm.
You raise some good points, acually enough to probobly stray me from doing so. Heres another question:
If I do plan on going out that night, should I take the above info and NOT take the stack that day? Or within 12 hours or so?

woa! you can take it at 6 pm and still sleep 
I would guess (and it is only a guess so if anyone else can jump in... ) That 12 hours prior would be ok. For most of us, it has worn off by bedtime so we can sleep. So i would have to assume that it would wear off enough to drink as well
Also becareful with the asprin as well. A lot of people don't realize that the stomach only absorbs a few things (everything else goes to the intestines to breakdown) THe stomach takes in asprin and alcohol. They say that you can die from a mix of asprin/alcohol so if you take something to prevent hangover, use asprin free.

You could also just stay off the ECA on most weekend days (which will most likely be your drinking days) and allow your metabolism to readjust somewhat, and then you'll get that nice ECA buzz back again on Monday.

The HALF-life of both Ephedrine and Caffeine are around 3-4 hours. So around 9-12 hours before it's really cleared. Just take a morning dose. That's all I ever do. Same with Yohimbine. Another big issue with the concurrent use of stimulants and depressants is that they are both diuretics. A rate of water loss that was too rapid is exactly why a lot of people have died trying to make weight for their competing class.
