Suggest me a nootropic that improves memory?
kair0s 15 Dec 2010
I'm 22 years old, I have Fetal alcohol syndrome (my mother drank while she was pregnant), so I don't have a very good memory. I don't wanna have to go through the trouble of finding a doctor, having them test my memory and then finally prescribing me something, so I been looking up nootropic drugs I can buy online. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Also has anyone ever heard of Vinpocetine( http://en.wikipedia....iki/Vinpocetine )?

"The combination that worked was alternating Jarrow CDP Choline and Alpha GPC when studying or taking a test, occasional low dose 1fast400 piracetam when studying (too erratic for me to risk on tests), and 500mg Doctor's Best ALCAR on waking during the weekdays. "
I'm not sure of the long-term effects (do I remember things better now than if I had never taken anything?), but for that semester it made a big difference.

I tried vinpocetine off and on and never noticed anything consistent from it. You might want to search the forums since I think there are some health concerns associated with it as well

Thanks for the reply. I'd like to try alot of these, but Im also interested in this list of supplements/nootropics http://www.imminst.o...-to-nootropics/
Piracetam
CDPCholine
sulbutiamine or pyritinol
Picamilon
Aniracetam
Lion's Mane
Fish Oil
PhosphatidylSerine
Bacopa
Is there anything in your list that I should mix in this one? I'm looking to improve anything really..attention, brain fog, motivation, cognition, because I also have untreated ADHD-PI/Sluggish cognitive tempo. But improving my memory is my primary focus, since it seems to be my biggest problem.
