Getting rid of SEMAX headaches?

Original post in this thread

Barn_cat · 16 points

I started taking SEMAX 200 mcg nasal spray from ceretropic about 4 days ago, and I've been having fairly consistent headaches about 1-2 hours after dosing. I've only been taking one spray a day, in the morning, and while the immediate effects have been subtle, I have noticed an improvement in mental stamina, stress management, and multitasking throughout the work day.

Normally I would stop taking any sort of medication if it's clear that it's causing me headaches, but the headaches I experience with SEMAX are so light, and its benefits so noticeable, that I have decided to give it an extended trial. That being said, I would rather spend the remainder of this trial headache-free, however light they may be.

So, my questions is this: Is there anything I could be taking in conjunction with SEMAX in order to eliminate the headaches (i.e. choline, 5-htp, etc.)? Has anyone had any such success?

I did read about your megadose experience, which made me a little confused as to why I'd be having issues with such a smaller dose. But maybe I'm just unlucky and oversensitive to it :/

I'm planning on ordering some choline, but I've been a bit hesitant after reading reports of some choline sources causing irritability, lethargy, and headaches when not paired with a racetam. I also couldn't figure out what sort of mechanism of interaction it's supposed to have with semax.

Some people are definitely more sensitive to Semax. I can handle higher doses, while other people have to stay around 200mcg. I've even had one person tell me that 50mcg was the best dose for him. However, that is not common.

Triple peptide 4 times more effective than semax

Replying to sambocyn · isn't that just potency? Like aniracetam is more potent than piracetam, but less effective (for me) at their optimal doses. (It's been a while since I took neuropharmacology)

No, potency is the dosage required to reach peak effects. Efficacy is the level of those peak effects. So lets say they were measuring rat's activity time on two drugs. If drug A made rats active 5 hours at a 100mg dose,
