Nootropics UK

Some of them are available to buy over the counter - such as herbal health supplements. These types are not usually that effective, and do not have many studies conducted that can confirm exactly how safe they are to take over extended periods of time. The "high-end" nootropics that have been proven to increase cognitive function, in addition to treating various disorders, are only usually available on prescription, such as Modvigil or Modalert. Fortunately, they are also available to purchase through online pharmacies such as ours.

Do you struggle with narcolepsy, falling asleep at the most inappropriate times without warning? Do you find yourself regularly struggling to be motivated due to a lack of focus? Are you simply looking for that extra kick of focus to make it through some important exams, requiring endless studying? If any of these match your situation, then nootropics may be exactly what you are looking for.

What are Nootropics Used for?

As previously mentioned, nootropics are used by people for a wide variety of different medical conditions, as well as other people who are looking to improve their brain functions. Some have been approved for medical conditions - these are called "on label" uses. Some of these on-label uses are:

• Narcolepsy - this condition is where the patient finds it extremely difficult to control when they fall asleep or stay awake. This can result in them having excessive daytime sleepiness, which can result in them falling asleep at inappropriate times.
• Shift Work Sleep Disorder - this condition affects those who work in shifts. Because the circadian rhythm of the body is thrown off and when there is a change of shift pattern, they may find themselves experiencing excessive daytime sleepiness when on the job.
• Sleep Apnoea - this condition is when someone has interrupted breathing while sleeping. The main symptoms of sleep apnoea are choking while sleeping and snoring. Sleep apnoea can result in excessive daytime sleepiness, as the condition interrupts deep sleep.

In addition to on-label uses, there are also off-label uses. These are where nootropics have not been specifically approved by a health regulatory body to be used in the following circumstances, but are often prescribed for them regardless.

Nootropics are used off-label for mainly studying, by students wishing to increase their focus so they can study better for exams. Professionals also use them, so they can complete tasks more quickly and effectively, as well as other specific groups. For example, the military, so they can stay awake during night operations, or surgeons, to allow them to be as alert as possible while performing surgery.

How do Nootropics Work?

It is not known exactly how these substances work, although there are some theories amongst the scientists who have studied them. They believe that they optimise the brains functions via multiple neuron pathways, to allow us to more effectively focus and motivate ourselves, regardless of the task. It does this by acting on certain brain chemicals. One of these chemicals is orexin, also known as hypocretin, which affects wakefulness.

It is partly responsible for our waking and sleep cycle and so, therefore, affects how tired we feel. When it is acted upon by nootropics, orexin increases the amount of dopamine in our brains. Dopamine is another major component of how Nootropics work. Dopamine is commonly known as the "reward" chemical, which is released as a result of a positive achievement, or exciting event that brings a feeling of joy.

It causes us to focus more intently on the positive event that has occurred, which leaves us with an exciting memory of this occurrence. This makes the brain want to experience this event again, which can make us more motivated. When we take nootropics like armodafinil, they block dopamine "transporters" in the brain, responsible for removing dopamine. This keeps more dopamine active, allowing it to build, which in turn can make us more motivated, allowing us to concentrate more easily on the task at hand.

Are Nootropics Effective for Everyone?

Nootropics are thought to be effective for just about everyone - there are very few people who they do not work for, and these people usually have a unique genetic make-up. Although we have been referring to nootropics typically as medications - there are many daily-use items which can technically be considered nootropics. Things such as coffee and tea are nootropics because they contain caffeine, which is a wakefulness-promoting agent. People all over the world find that they cannot function to the best of their abilities unless they have had their morning coffee.

These substances are becoming increasingly popular, precisely because they are so effective. In fact, in 2018, the global nootropics market was valued at $1.96 billion. By 2020, this number had increased to $9.57 billion, which goes to show that word of mouth, and online reviews left from people who have taken these supplements and medications are testament to their effectiveness.

What are the Best Nootropics?

Nootropics come in many different types. As previously mentioned, there are options such as coffee, that contain caffeine, which helps to keep people alert. Less common but still popular are herbal nootropic supplements which are available over the counter. These are usually derived from entirely natural ingredients. Some examples of herbal nootropics that people take are Panax Ginseng and Ginkgo Biloba.

The issue with these herbal supplements is that firstly, they are not particularly effective, and secondly, nobody Is sure about the safety of taking these herbal tablets long-term. Because there have been very few scientific studies into them, we do not have the data available for this, meaning that potentially they could be dangerous.

The most effective ones available are those that are not available over the counter. These medications are only available via prescription or from online pharmacies such as ours. Some examples of Nootropics are modafinil and armodafinil - which are recognisable by the brand names Provigil and Artvigil respectively. These are the most effective, as they have been proven by both anecdotal evidence and scientific studies that they enhance brain power.

Do Nootropic Supplements Have Side Effects

Anyone that has taken medications before knows that there are almost always side effects that may be experienced, some mild, and some severe. Unlike many other medications, nootropics have very few side effects at all, and the ones that are experienced, are extremely mild. Some of these are:

• Difficulty sleeping - this is self-explanatory. When not taking these medications for conditions like narcolepsy, and instead taking them for an off-label reason, such as using them as smart drugs, you will find that sleep may be hindered. The best way to deal with this is by ensuring you take them at least 12 hours prior to sleeping. By this point, the effects of Nootropics should have worn off.
• Diarrhoea - occasionally this medication can cause an upset stomach, which can result in diarrhoea. This can be easily treated by taking something to settle your stomach, like Imodium or Pepto-Bismol.
• Headaches - some will find that they may have a headache after a while of taking some of these medications. These headaches are typically mild and can be treated with an over-the-counter painkiller.

Are Nootropics Safe for Everyone?

Simply put, yes, these medications are extremely safe for most people who take them. Many scientific studies have found that the risk of experiencing any serious side effects is extremely low. As always, there are some people who should not take Nootropics, or should do so with great caution, and at reduced doses. If you belong to any of the following groups, you should consult with a medical professional prior to taking any nootropics:

• Those who have heart conditions - it has been found in some studies that people who have serious heart conditions such as myocardial infarction, or unstable angina can suffer side effects such as palpitations and chest pain. For those with a weak heart already, this could be dangerous.
• Those who are taking oral contraceptive steroids - taking these medications alongside nootropics is not dangerous, but it has been found that the effectiveness of the contraceptives could potentially be reduced, which is something to be aware of. Examples of contraceptive steroids are ethinyloestradiol, known by the brand names such as Cryselle and Elinest, and progestogens (levonorgestrel and norethisterone), known by brand names like Plan B and Primolut N.

Can You Overdose on Nootropics?

It is basically impossible to overdose on Nootropics, due to the nature of how they work. We can only produce a certain amount of dopamine, so repeatedly taking tablets will yield no further results after a certain point. The average dose of a medication such as Waklert is 100 mg - 200 mg in a 12-hour period. Studies were conducted where doses of between 1000 mg and 1600 mg of modafinil were given to 32 different subjects on a daily basis, over the course of between 7 and 21 days.

None of these test subjects experienced any unexpected or particularly dangerous effects. Not only that, two of the subjects took 4000 mg and 4500 mg of modafinil, and also did not experience any life-threatening effects. The typical side effects were anxiety, tremors, palpitations, and insomnia. Considering the doses that were taken to even achieve those side effects were so large, if you stick to the recommended doses for your condition, there is no doubt that you will not overdose on nootropics.
