What are the most promising ampakines that are currently available?

Attention, alertness, memory and learning capability are a desirable group of traits that I'm sure many people may benefit from.

Personally, I'm a huge fan of aniracetam, but it leaves something to be desired. I'm not sure if there are any nootropics out there that may be of greater benefit to me than ampakines or perhaps modafinil.

Do you have a personal recommendation Mister?

I'm curious about which of these seems to have the highest subjective rate of success, and could safely mix with a stimulant such as modafinil or caffeine.

These strong ampakines are poorly understood so unfortunately we have to rely on anecdotal reports, but I don't mind taking risks.

I have not tried CX-717 yet, so I cannot comment on it subjectively. However, it looks to be the most effective on paper.

I like Unifiram. It gives you the good effects, without the dirty feeling Sunifiram gives. The only reason Sunifiram is pushed, is that the synth is a lot cheaper. The labs in China were dragging their feet on Unifiram for a long time, due to the price. We have some coming to us soon.

IDRA-21 is pretty cool. It lasts a long time, and seems to work best in young healthy people, which is unique. Just be careful mixing it with stimulants, as it can be a little much.

What is the best nootropic for someone looking primarily for a boost of energy and motivation that's stronger than caffeine but less extreme than amphetamines?

6mg of melatonin is too much. I take .5-1mg. Melatonin has been shown to be much more effective at lower doses. Lower your dose and see how that works. 6mg would mean a very hard time waking up, and hours of foggyness in

It's really very complicated. There is competitive binding affinities you have to consider. Plus, downstream mechanisms that may alter the effects. Not to mention the varying level of responses between different people.

Smart drugs: A dose of intelligence

Replying to BigYellowLemon · I have never read an article about nootropics that left me with anything but anger and annoyance. The only "nootropics" I ever hear about are methylphenidate, modafinil, caffeine

It's because the people that actually have something to say don't want to talk, and the people that want to talk have nothing to say. Did the world need another article about amphetamine, methylphenidate, and modafinil?
