Memantine going to be coming into the US...wow, that'd be great! On one hand I almost wish it had some sort of abuse potential. Isn't it pitiful, you could buy bulk viagra, steroids, rophynol, sleeping pills, ritalin, phen-fen for cheaper than can be bought in a pharmacy, because they all have recreational and/or common use purposes. Even something as expensive and rare as modafinil exists on the black market, and the prices are dirt cheap compared to any pharmacies in existance. Yet I can't buy something that doesn't have much abuse/commune use potential because the the underground market is far too small to warrant black market labs to produce it...arrgghhh. Sorry, I was just looking at the prices of memantine sans insurance and it fired up a little aggression in me.
Anyway, John, I was just curious, how did you come up with the 30mg once or twice a day dosage (obviously with the prozac trick) for dxm? Is that just a guess as my guess of 50mg was or is it based on some data.
Lol, abusing DXM...from what I've read about it online, a great number of people hate using it in "recreational" doses, and those that do like, only a very small percentage continue to use it on a regular basis. Kind of like lsd, a person uses it out of curiousity or to gain some insight, and once they've gained that (or realized that it can't be gained by the drug) they aren't interested in it much anymore. Neither drug has any euphoriant or addictive capacity, and as such, very little abuse potential. Of course I would not expect the average mediahyped doc to realize this.
Sorry to hear about the modafinil...like everything, it apparantly doesn't work for everyone. Although I really have yet to hear from anyone who tried ghb for "depressive ideation and/or anxiety" that it did not work for. Read up on this article some time, it fails to mention the memory effects, but then again at nonabusive dosages memory effects would be nonexistant (which this author states is anything less than or equal to 2.5mls or grams per 6 hrs, I would tend to agree, and that dosage is effective for our purposes, and no tolerance or dopamine buildup either): http://www.biopsychiatry.com/ghb/authentic.html
John, I got those articles but my computer crashes when I try to download them...I suspect a problem with hotmail. I'll email you a different address soon.
