What's the average dose for oxiracetam?

Thanks.

Also, how long does it take to kick in?

800 - 2400 mg. usually takes 15-30 mins to kick in. significant mental stimulation for approx. 90 mins in my experience. if taken over time the immediate effects subside but you are more stimulated throughout the day.

Hmm... I took 4.8 grams, and it's been 45 min. and I don't feel any difference like I did the first time I took piracetam.

Also, does oxiracetam give anyone else instant heartburn followed by nausea, right when you take it, not when it kicks in (so as an effect of the actual powder texture/taste)?

My dose is 2x800mg but 800mg once works pretty well too, depends on how you feel. Take with 200mg of caffeine anhydrous for a more pronounced effect.

200 mg twice a day is a good dose for me, or 100 mg oxi along with 400 mg piracetam. Then again I'm fairly sensitive to these things.

Never heard that one.

Didn't do it today, so maybe it was just a fluke.

Should it be taken with food or no?

**neurokwarg** · October 30th, 2007, 01:09 PM

Oxiracetam is water-soluble. You can take it with or without food, it doesn't matter.

Do you gain a tolerance to it? You don't gain tolerance to any other -racetams, so I wouldn't think so, but I've been dosing for a week and a day, about, and stopped noticing some of the effects.

**neurokwarg** · November 1st, 2007, 09:21 PM

I never noticed any kind of tolerance issues; the reason you might stopped noticing it's effects is probably because you got used to it. The mind tends to slip these things more into the background as time passes because it is not new and interesting anymore and thus regards these effects as "normal". Therefore, it might be a good idea to go cold turkey for a while so your mind can learn and compare the difference in processing. When you start supplementing oxiracetam again you will suddenly find it more easy to mark it's effects on cognition. Thanks to the comparison, it is now burnt it in your mind and it will be hard to not notice it's effects, even after a long time of continuous use.
