Piracetam sublingual

paul's Photo paul 11 Oct 2005

Is it safe to take piracetam sublingualy (let dissolve under the tongue) since i find a smaller dose can be taken. Is this a safe and effective option since it will clearly save me money?

seems reasonable...but kind of impractical, unless you can swing it physically. how small doses are we talking about?

I believe that piracetam's absorption is very high when taken orally, and it has no metabolites, so I don't know if there would be a point to sublingual dosing.

Why does a substance not need sublingual intake if it has no metabolites? Sorry, I'm not very knowledgeable yet.

Piracetam absorption is near 100% when ingested anyways, and is so cheap that I find myself buying fresh batches before I finish what I already have. So I guess the question is, why bother?

i've asked this months ago, answer was that it already has great oral bioavailability so you get nothing from taking piracetam sublingual except bad taste ;)

R U sure it passes the membrane under tongue. I don't think just anything is sublingual. Also, if it is, it would work better. Nothing survives digestion 100%, but if it goes direct to blood, it's bound to work faster and better.
