I just got 100 caplets of Nootropil 1200mg from overseas.

This morning I took my first dose of 2 caplets ( 2400mg), and felt sleepy.

Is it normal for the first dose ?

( I've been taking a very sedating antidepressant Avanza 90mg, Klonopin 2mg, for the past 4 yrs at nite.......and I got tolerance to their effects......sometimes they even don't sedate me anymore..)

Strangely, as I know, Nootropil is more of a stimulant type, unlike Avanza or Klonopin. But why does it give me a sleepy feeling......is it called as the term " Brain fog" ?

Maybe I should take a form of Choline with it. ( usually I buy Lecithin granules.)

Is there anyone experiencing this effect for the first time without Choline ? ( Is it called " Brain fog" ?)

Thanks.

Read Isochromas hypothesis: Depth Charge. I think it is pretty sound, and makes sense to me. He also told me about a person of his, who were having brain fogs and tiredness + fatigue during the first days of treatment, but it went away after about 2-3 weeks.

That's complete pure and unadulterated bullshit.

What is? The hypothesis, or the subjective experience of one of the members on this forum to find that the fatigue had disappeared after 2 weeks?

Thanks for any input.

After 4 days on it, I find it more stimulating.......

I experienced diarrhea if I take it on empty stomach upon arising...... so now I'm taking it with my breakfast ( eggs, cereals, coffee and Lecithin)... and it works good.
