a few questions on sulbutiamine
Original post in this thread

Hi folks,
some people advised sulbutiamine for helping with focus, worry and overthinking/rumination.
I have a few questions:
1. does it cause dependency, withdrawal or rebound effects when stopped?
2. is it necessary to take it with other co-factors (e.g. a B Complex)?
3. is there any potential bad interaction with other supplements, in particular the following ones: tribulus, white jelly mushroom, cordyceps, chaga, gotu kola, MSM, theanine, taurine, ashwagandha, lysine, EGCG, magnolia bark, boron, vit D, vit K?
Thanks!

Thanks man for your feedback.
Not strictly related, but I have a question about lion’s mane: it seems it could help with lack of focus and mild anxiety. However, what is your opinion about DHT and/or libido reduction?
I’m considering a stack with LM, sulbutiamine, white jelly, chaga, polygala, ashwagandha (cycled with cordyceps) agmatine, EGCG and magnolia bark.
I’ve seen some reports about LM’s side effects (mainly on Nootropics), but I’m trying to understand if this is only anecdotal or “nocebo effect”.

That's never been reported in a clinical study before. I don't personally have that side effect, nor does anyone in our office. The studies people reference saying it can have that effect are on reishi and a completely different Hericium species, not lion's mane.
