I don't know if it's good or not cause I have not yet learned the criterion of goodness in thies area ;-) Why should I take a multivitamin-mineral complex ? I mean, it's because they help with ADHD sintomps or because of they help l-tyrosine to work or whatelse ? (I must write on the agenda to read something about supplements instaed of asking ;-)B6 and C are needed for the enzymatic activity that makes L-DOPA from L-tryosine, dopamine from L-DOPA, and then norepinepherine from dopamine.

But lacking the others will end up causing other problems too.
> Tyrosine is working very well (500 mg someday, 1000 mg some other). Why did you augment the dose to 3000 mg ? Did you find that the more you take the more it helps ?
I had 1000 mg tablets and I needed to take them at least three times a day to keep the effect up. It was more a question of duration.
