Regarding clen:
a lot of studies on it were binned because of the dangers, even as early as 1986
Aside from parasympatheticolytis, calcium antagonists, musculotropic relaxants and tricyclic antidepressants, beta 2-sympatheticomimetics are also used in the treatment of urgency. The beta 2-sympatheticomimetic Clenbuterol, which has relatively slight cardiological side effects, was...

Even for veterinary uses clenbuterol should not be used if the animal you’re treating has existing heart conditions or high blood pressure
Clenbuterol, a bronchospasmolytic agent (beta 2 agonist) was studied in terms of its hemodynamic and airflow response in eight, healthy horses. Four animals were instrumented to record intrapleural pressure and air flow, these were used to compute pulmonary resistance, peak flow rates, and tidal...
