Bizarre side effect from "Super Rhodiola"

Original post in this thread

I am experiencing patches of hyperpigmentation on both of my hands, the pigmentation is not symmetric across my left and right hands. I am still not sure that Ceretropics Super Rhodiola is causing this, but it started 3 days after I added the supplement to my usual stack. The other culprit could fasoracetam, but i have been using it for about 3 weeks now without such side effects.

My phone camera had a hard time focusing and resolving the spots, but here they are: http://imgur.com/Oqll4S7

Has anyone tried the Super Rhodiola for an extended amount of time and experienced something similiar? I will discontinue all my substances and see if it goes away.

UPDATE: I woke up tonight to find that the spots have greatly decreased in intensity, in fact I can only see two right now. Since stopping my fasoracetam and Rhodiola I am experiencing some withdrawal symptoms which I would mostly have to attribute to fasoracetam since I have used it for a relatively long time. I am not experiencing any orgasm when I ejaculate, I just ejaculate and feel the same afterwords, strange. Also, I am experiencing insomnia as I sit here and write…

This is the first I have heard of it. Have you taken rhodiola before? I still have not tried fasoracetam, so I cannot comment on that one. However, I have never heard of rhodiola causing that effect.

And yes, I take the super rhodiola every day. I am for sure the person that has taken it the longest, and in the highest dosages. I have not seen any issues with skin pigmentation.

It depends on what you are look for. Semax, and it's N-Acetyl version, have been the most effective for me personally. The new neuropeptides are pretty cool. However, there are so many other substances out there. Natural
