brain from the adverse impacts resulting from the shortage of oxygen. This drug
is also utilized for augmenting the psychological condition of patients
suffering from cerebrovascular disease. This medication performs its job on the

Proper dosages
The
accepted dose of this medication for clinical use is somewhere between 750 and
1500mg daily. Sometimes, it is also been utilized in low doses of 200mg to be
taken thrice daily for treating problems like depression and anxiety connected
to cerebral infarction. Based on numerous researches, dosages like 750, 1000 or
1500mg daily is being utilized. However, lower doses do not fetch the desired
consequences. Higher doses can cause diminishing return and do have the
possibility to create negative side effects. As this medication has a brief half-life

possessing synergistic constituents. When you stack it with various other
nootropic supplements, you will be needed to take a smaller dosage for
