> Anyone knows of any good alternatives, btw?Ok, maybe it's too early for me to talk since i have been taking it for only 4-5 days but here it goes:
I take a single dose of 50mg daily and it gives me nothing but side-effects even on such low dose:
- mild headache
- sensation of "flushed eyes"
- noticable acceleration of heart beat. This is not a stim/dopamine rush kind of palpitations. It's more like an anti-cholinergic kind..I haven't notice any psychotropic effect. Perhaps it's there but it's to subtle. So far, i'm dissapointed with it.
