While I understand the warnings offered by others, I've taken similiar medication and not had any issues. If you were to take it and crawl in the recliner, you'd probably get drowsy quickly enough and nod off. But running up and down a basketball floor, your heart's pumping hard and the blood is flowing. I've never experienced any drowsiness or impaired judgment. Well...some coach might have a different opinion regarding judgment.
