One supplement that has quickly become the darling of the nootropics world is none other than noopept. Often taken for its benefits on memory and mood, noopept is a potent nootropic thought to be over 1000 times as potent as piracetam – another popular cognitive enhancer.
If you’re thinking about taking noopept, it’s highly recommended that you do your due diligence and hit the books before committing to taking this substance regularly. During this process, a lot of questions will come up, and here are the answers.
How long does it take for noopept to start working?
There are two common ways to take noopept – either orally or sublingually. Oral administration is simply taking a capsule filled with noopept, while during sublingual administration, the user allows unprocessed noopept powder to dissolve under their tongue.
Those who take noopept orally report feeling the effects within 30 minutes to an hour, while those who choose to dose sublingually feel the effects within 15 minutes.
How long does noopept work?
Most studies, anecdotal reports, and just about any noopept review put the overall length of noopept to be somewhere in the realm of 3-5 hours. Because of this, people often take noopept two to three times a day to have consistent effects during their waking hours.
Is noopept safe?
For the vast majority of people who use noopept, there are little to no side effects to speak of, and the substance is extremely well-tolerated. The liver metabolizes noopept. Those who take the chemical consistently haven’t reported any decrease in liver health and function. The only group of people who should be concerned about taking noopept should be those with heart conditions, as the chemical is known to increase blood pressure in certain individuals.
What are the side effects of noopept?
The side effects of noopept, if present at all, tend to be extremely mild and transient in nature. These side effects include mood swings, irritability, and headaches. Effects such as nausea and appetite changes have also been reported.
How much noopept should I take?
Since noopept is several orders of magnitude more potent than other nootropics like piracetam, the doses are quite minuscule compared to most other substances. People most often take 10 mg – 30 mg of noopept daily, sometimes spread across several doses throughout the day.
Individual doses vary, so there’s a chance an individual might have to take slightly more or slightly less noopept to get the same effects as another individual.
Conclusion
Hopefully, this quick guide can answer some of the secondary questions you might have about noopept. It might seem too good to be true, but there’s more than enough people out there who have nothing but good things to say about this brain-boosting wonder drug.
