Found an interesting substance

Original post in this thread

Hello all. I have found what looks like an amazing substance with powerful nootropic properties to it. It is call Captodiame.

It act as a 5-HT2C receptor antagonist and an o1 receptor and D3 agonist. Oddly enough, it is a derivative of Diphenhydramine (Benedryl).

Now where it gets interesting, it greatly increased BDNF in the Hypothalamus. This unique action may be related to its ability to attenuate stress induced anhedonia and corticosteroid-releasing factor signaling in the hypothalamus.

It is used as an antihistamine, sedative, anxiolytic, and antidepressant. There are also studies showing that it helped prevent benzodiazepine withdrawal and speed up recovery.

So I have been asking around with no luck at getting it synthesized. Is this a product people would be interested in researching? If there is a high enough demand I am sure we can get it going.

GetHyyer only mentioned this one to me a few days ago. I have not had a chance to really look into it yet.
