Ephedra, or ephedrine, is a substance that elicits weight loss when combined with caffeine, according to the Mayo Clinic. Ephedra carries major safety concerns including high blood pressure, asphyxiation, heart attack and stroke. On February 6, 2004, the Food and Drug Administration issued a final declaration banning the sale of dietary supplements containing ephedra, because they carry an unnecessary risk of extreme side effects.
