Which product might mimic Pseudoephedrine benefits on ND?
Original post in this thread

So, Pseudoephedrine is the strongest most beneficial supplement I took for concentration (actually took it as part of a cough medicine). It showed me that I'm able to have much better executive function and short term memory.
I've been looking for a nootropic or a supplement(s) that can affect the same receptors or act more on NE than dopamine. I'm more prone to having my CNS triggered by amphetamines, so I'm trying to find something else that can be used for a long period of time with less worries (Pseudoephedrine has many side effects).
Thank you!

Doesn't berberine supplementation lead to muscle atrophy?
u/MisterYouAreSoDumb
No, that was a single study. Others have shown it improves muscle atrophy.

The study that showed it caused muscle atrophy used injectable berberine. All the oral studies show it helps. This is could be because oral berberine is actually converted in the intestines by probiotics into a different form.
