Is there any reason this shouldn't be done?

I haven't had any direct experience, but I have heard (here) that centro is incredibly tough to cap -- it's very clumpy. So it might be tough to get it evenly mixed with the ALCar.

Why don't you give it a try and come back and let us hear about it?

I'm getting really tired of capping "difficult" powders ;)

I'm going to take them both with P'tam in water or Oj instead. Anyone wanna buy some Cap'mQuicks?

I believe centro is hydroscopic, hence the difficulty in capping and the necessity of storing well away from moisture, etc. But I was able to sucessfully (and evenly) able to put in a 000 size cap the following:

400mg centropheoxine
60mg huperzine-A
60mg Bacopa
300mg PS 20%

for the record, I'm not so sure I'm happy with how it makes me think and feel. I'll report later. But, suffice it to say, I won't be using this particular formula anymore during finals week. I'll stick to my sulbutiamine, idebenone, vinpocetine & rosea rhodiola combo + various anti oxidants, thank you very much (a badassssssssss stress killer).

Btw, I'm new here. Hello, all!

I think the 60mg of Hup-A is the culprit.

You shouldn't be exceding 200mcg per day.

that was actually a typo; there is 60mcg hup-a/cap, not 60mg.

I capped up some centro with no problem. You do need a tamper to do it right. For mixing two powders, no problem there either. Just place the two powders in a plastic baggie and shake them up. You can crush clumps with your fingers, kneed the mixture and blend them together. No more tasting nasty powders every day. You can use one 0/1 tamper for all size caps.

I'm more concerned with Interaction between the two chemicals, not the physical mixing. I should have been more specific.

Can ALACR & Centro be take together w/out food (both water soluble) at the same time ;)

Honestly, I've found taking centro as power to be far far more effective for me than capping it...the taste is bitter, but it seems to have a much greater effect that way.

I thought ALCAR should generally be taken on an empty stomach and centrophenoxine with food. So capping them together would be counter productive wouldnt it.

I totally agree with centrophenoxine being hard to cap. I tried it for the first time today.

nebben you are an idiot.

Snorting and injecting substances are usually reserved for the recreational users of substances. the recreational users are usually looking for a bigger hit and hence the experimetation with delivery methods.

I deny, but don't you think recreational users can give a answer?

Don't snort Centro.
But you could try snorting Piracetam/Oxiracetam. I knew someone who did this. It didn't work out too well for him though.

Why would you want to snort something that is very bioavailable taken orally?

What do you mean by:

for the record, I'm not so sure I'm happy with how it makes me think and feel. I'll report later.


And how is this:

400mg centropheoxine
60mg huperzine-A
60mg Bacopa
300mg PS 20%


A potent stress killer? I'd really like to know, because I would rather take this, then valium.

Thanks.
