Product Introduction

Aniracetam is a compound in the group of racetams due to its common pyrrolidone structure. It is also called as Draganon, Sarpul, Ampamet, Memodrin or Referan. Aniracetam is one of the more common Racetamic structures. It is fat-soluble and thus needs to be ingested with fatty acids. Additionally, Aniracetam is Cholinergic.

Aniracetam acts as a positive modulator of some excitatory receptors known as AMPA receptors and decreases the rate of receptor desensitization. This typically manifests as a controlled and prolonged neurological stimulation effect. Since AMPA receptors differ in structure across the brain, different AMPA modulators affect the brain in different ways.

Anecdotally, Aniracetam has been know to aid in 'collective and holistic thinking', or putting the pieces of the puzzle together. It also increases blood flow and activity in the area of the brain known for this action, the association cortex.

Aniracetam, as an AMPA modulator, is currently being studied for usage in depression and other CNS disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.

Uses/Benefits/Effects

Aniracetam is a modulator of the AMPA receptor that works by binding to a non-active site of AMPA receptors and allosterically modifying the binding site, of which the final result is a reduced rate of desensitization in the presence of positive stimuli (such as glutamate, which is intrinsically produced).

Aniracetam influences cognitive function without acting as a sedative or stimulant. It improves memory and the ability to understand complex concepts.

It improves the function of certain neurotransmitters and also has an effect on brain receptors which are involved with learning and memory processes.

This translates to better congnitive performance. It is also thought to exert its global effect on brain neurotransmission via modulation of ion channels.

Another good thing Aniracetam does is it speeds up the rate of blood flow and electrical activity in the brain.

It is this function of Aniracetam – and other racetams – which is of medical interest. It is hoped that this increase in blood flow might prove helpful to patients with Alzheimer’s, dementia, stroke patients, and other similar conditions.

To summary the benefits of Aniracetam:

Improved Memory

Increased Learning Ability

Improved Cognitive Processing

Heightened Reflexes

Side Effects

Aniracetam, as a generic chemical and patented drug has been shown to be effective in improving overall cognition and mental processing. Side effects and tolerance are rare occurrences and usually occur in higher doses or recurrent use.

There is limited date on fatalities or severe side with Aniracetam. Brain toxicity and hepatoxicity are unrecorded and the substance is deemed to be safe by several patented manufacturers of the drug. It should never be used as a self-medication practice for physiological problems. Never self-prescribe and always practice due diligence by speaking with a doctor before use.

Common Side Effects Include:
