I've tried a few 'racetams- Piracetam, Aniracetam and Oxiracetam, in that order. I noticed nothing from the Piracetam, other that when I stopped it I had a bit of a discontinuation syndrome- I felt dumber after missing a day's dose, worse than I was before starting Piracetam, but while on the Piracetam, I didn't see any effects that couldn't be attributed to placebo. I got similar results from the Oxiracetam, a little better perhaps. Aniracetam, on the other hand, worked the first time I took it, and has continued working. I take 750 mg 2-3x/day. It gives me the 'racetam brain boost, but there is also a relatively minor but quite marked anti-anxiety effect. I did some research on this, and it seems this has been found in some studies, so it doesn't seem to just be me. Anyway, I recommend it, and if you get the 250g package it isn't bad price-wise. |
