Emsam + D-Phenylalanine

Posted by satsumas on March 14, 2008, at 9:25:14

Hi there,
I'm trying out augmenting my 12mg of emsam with some phenylalanine. I tried the DL before but have heard that it's just the D I should focus on since that's what converts to PEA, and the D- isomer has some good effects in an of itself, and is probably less dangerous than pure PEA since a conversion step needs to take place.
Right?
Any ideas as to the correct dosage? Studies showed around 50 mg of PEA plus deprenyl worked, but i'm on a higher dose of emsam (12mg 16 hours a day, take off at night), and i haven't been able to find any info as to the rate of conversion of D-phenyalanine to PEA.
Is 500mg of DL-phenylalanine giving the same amount of D, and of eventual PEA, as 250 of just the D isomer, or is there "other stuff" going on, when the stuff is mixed.
Anyone know?
Thanks.
