Hey r/Nootropics, we are two neuroscience grad students looking for your suggestions on an upcoming project.

Original post in this thread

As the title says, we are two neuroscientists looking for some advice on a project we are undertaking. We find drugs fascinating, so we are starting a blog about drugs for people that love drugs too.

We will be scouring journals and reporting on any interesting research we come across. We hope to break down papers so they're easy to understand while still keeping it intellectually stimulating.

We're curious what topics you would like to hear about, and if you have any suggestions for us we would love to hear them!

Edit: Thanks everyone for all the great ideas and suggestions. We are moving ahead with the blog, and once we have it up and running we'll be back here to let you all know. We'll be continuing to check on this thread, so feel free to continue discussing! If I get some free time (trying to wrap up thesis ATM, reddit is not conducive to that) I'll try and come back to address some questions people had.

Mister, you ain’t so dumb, I’d love to know what stack you are taking.

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · Ceretropic

I modify my stack a lot. Currently I am taking:

* 1,600mg Piracetam
* 15mg noopept
* 300mg Pramiracetam
* 500mg ALCAR
* 150mg Na-R-ALA
* 130mg DMAE
* 450mg Bacopa
* 300mg Saint John's Wort
* 5000iu Vitamin D
* 500mg Quercetin
* 400mg EGCG
* 1g Fish Oil
* 100-200mg Caffeine
* 150-250mg L-theanine
* Sublingual Coenzymated B Complex

I am going to drop the piracetam, since I believe it is destroying my immune system. Every time I start back up on a piracetam regimen, I am sick within a week or two. It has to be messing with my testosterone levels. I started taking maca to try and counteract that, but I had an allergic reaction to it and had stomach issues for a month. I am now too afraid to try another brand of maca, because stomach issues really suck!

Any interest in a subredit for older nootropics users?

Replying to seb21051 · Understood. Morning after breakfast: 25mg Noopept, 150mg CDP Choline, 500mg ALCAR, 100mg Theanine, Coffee, 1g2 Fishoil, 65mg Ginko, Multivitamin. After Lunch: 25mg Noopept, 150mg C

First I'll start with the nootropic stack. Noopept is good, but is going to take time to build up. I also think you need to lower your dose. 25mg is usually to high for most people on a regular basis. I take 15mg and th

Hypomanic modafinil rebound

I had a very interesting interaction a couple days ago. I had been taking 75mg D-modafinil every day for 5 days, while ceasing my caffeine supplementation. I got back home from Thanksgiving in Colorado, and decided to dr

Any long term (6+ months) daily users of Racetams or other Nootropics out there? Care to post your stories?

Replying to awaitingsanity · Great intel. I was thinking about replacing piracetam with noopept in my stack. Do they seem to "go well" together or would you recommend one over the other?

I'd say they go well together. I found that 10mg noopept, 450mg oxiracetam, 200mg caffeine, 150mg L-theanine, and 200mg Bacopa was a very good stack. You could probably switch out the oxiracetam for 1,600mg piracetam wit

Ceretropic Review (Noopept and L-Theanine/Caffeine)

Replying to stoicmind · I strangely like the taste of noopept as well as piracetam...you are not alone.

Now phenylpiracetam and pramiracetam, no way! I just had some phenyl, and it was bad.

LiftMode Phenylpiracetam

Replying to jackmal · I too will admit that I am also writing this review to redeem Liftmode's $20 off offer. That being said, I have tried L-Theanine, Noopept, and Phenypiracetam from them, with the L-

You only take 75mg pramiracetam? That's a low dose. I take at least 300mg usually. Since phenylpiracetam does have affinities for the NE and DA transporters, it's possible it had a burning out effect. Also, you might ju

Pramiracetam experiences - no effect for me

Replying to fungz0r · Does this have any effect on speech?

Now that you mention it, yes. I led a conference call yesterday and I was fumbling my words in the beginning. Keep in mind I was also on bacopa, l-theanine, modafinil, ginkgo, oxiracetam, and caffeine. It just feels like
