Customer Reviews

Strange but Effective
Piracetam is a supplement that has effects on your brain chemistry...Everyone has different cranial quirks, so your mileage may vary. For me, it seemed to improve my concentration and short term memory. The side effects were a bit of a headache in the first few days, easily taken care of with choline and magnesium supplementation. The effects are subtle, and build up over the course of a few weeks.

The powder itself is EXTREMELY bitter. You're going to need a way of getting this into capsules. I would also suggest cycling off of this for a full month for every three months of use. I would highly suggest doing plenty of research on piracetam, as it is a prescription drug in other countries.

Good stuff for memory/studying
Piracetam has been part of what I call my study stack for college. While it -might- not be as good as aniracetam it's much cheaper and easily available.

One thing to note when considering it is that it tastes utterly horrible. If you've tried bulk PEA...you aren't prepared. If you've had bulk BCAA's...they're like candy in comparison. An entire lemon crystal light can't mask it. Either shotgun it and/or chase it or cap them. It's that bad.

Using a dosage of 2g I've had good results (3.85) stacked with Huperzine A, a good B-Complex and Lecithin (important to take this or some sort of choline with piracetam).

primaforce PIRACETAM 500 GRAMS LAB TESTED
This product is somewhat bitter, and the second nootropic that I have tried, (the other was oxiracetam). I think the oxiracetam worked rather well, and I think this product also works, but oxiracetam (and some of the other racetams), seem rather expensive (even given that the dose is so much smaller).

I was hoping to get a similar effect from this piracetam, and when I made my purchase this looked like the most inexpensive tub of piracetam available (though the tub kinda looks bumble-bee-ish). I figured that just becuase it was inexpensive doesn't mean that is does not work, but apparently folks have been shying away from this product for some reason? Maybe it's the bumble bee-ish looking packaging?

It is probably better not to mix this piracetam supplement simply with water, (or any nootropic for that matter), becuase of the bitter taste, as it seems better suited to tonic water, juice, or something to mask the tase a bit. It might be even wiser to put it in (1-gram) capsules since the product seems to attract water and clump (though it mixes well with water when it ISN'T in clumps).

This caveat, hygroscopicity, may be of no fault of the manufacturers, but keep this property in mind if you don't plan on using quite a bit of this stuff rather quickly. My tub is starting to clump, so I might need to break out my mortar and pestle.

The "normal" or recommended dose listed on the package of piracetam is 3 grams, though I have read stories of some folks using as high as 9 grams in one day. Piracetam is supposedly rather non-toxic, so this seems reasonable, and I noticed no ill effects from such a seemingly large dose on occasion.

I recommend that one keep this product in the fridge, as I've read somewhat that spoilage might occur (likely due to contamination), since the tub comes with a 1 gram scoop that might easily contaminate the entire tub. Given this information, it would seem especially prudent to utilize good (standard) hygenic procedure, for example thorough hand washing, before touching the scoop which is supposed to be placed back inside the container after use.

If the option is available, and doesn't seem like too much trouble, it might be wise to immediately instill the piracetam in 1 gram capsules before it has a chance to clump up. I'm just speaking from expereince, and this is not yet something that I have tried, but I might give it a whirl the next time around.

If the stronger stuff was more affordable, the other similar but more potent nootropics in the piracetam family, I would be purchasing those products instead of this, but for the price this product seems like a reasonable value, given the caveats aforementioned in my review. I give it four out of five stars, and I would probably purchase this product again, especially at the special discount price!
