Hi
So i ordered some piracetam almost a week ago which im still waiting for and Ive finally had an appointment with my doctor. He told me to not try piracetam as it has caused people damage. He says side effects include insomnia and bleeding in the brain and heamorraghes.
Has anyone who has used piracetam had any side effects ever. have any of you,once stopping piracetam, felt that you cant concentrate or focus as much as you could before you ever took any. and could you also state your country please, if you dont mind.
I know about the research of 40 years but still this is worrying. I know its used for treating severe neurological conditions but im worried about the side effects or if my cognitive ability will fall below the baseline after i stop taking it.
Thanks in advance

Your doctor is no better than the people online espousing nonsense without any evidence. There are no cases that I can find where piracetam caused hemorrhaging of the brain. You may be able to find people with sleep issues on piracetam. However, most people report better sleep on it.
I would ask him for evidence of the fears he is spreading.
