Hello,
I am glad you liked it.
Regarding studies, no I have not found any. However our dear contributor to this forum JohnL posted many times (as some other people) that adrafinil is of great help.
Due to gastrointestinal distress (and fear from liver toxicity which many times I read mentioned but not demonstrated) I get from 300mg I am taking half a dose/day.
Two times I took 150mg adrafinil with 750 mg aniracetam and I noticed a better effect. Hope to try pramiracetam, but it is expensive. I am thinking in combining with vinpocetine for its neuroprotective effect (glutamate toxicity). I am not sure if the combination is good. From the article it seems adrafinil elevates glutamate. Sorry this is speculative and just my attempt to understand how this work.
Please post your comments/experiences.
