Nootropics Powder Piracetam Powder CAS 7491-74-9 for Enhancing Memory
Description
Piracetam is a nootropic agent with an indication as adjunctive treatment for myoclonus of cortical origin, as well as tardive dyskinesia. However, piracetam is not approved by the FDA for any medical use in the USA. Piracetam should not be prescribed in patients with Huntington disease, those with serious kidney problems, or patients who have experienced a brain haemorrhage. Bleeding problems are a further caution to be taken into account. Although there is little evidence for piracetam’s efficacy in terms of long- term benefits for the treatment of mild cognitive impairments, recent studies showed that it is effective in the treatment of cognitive disorders of cerebrovascular and traumatic origins. With regard to piracetam’s behavioural profile, its beneficial effects on lowering depression and anxiety appear to be higher than its positive effects on memory.
Uses
Piracetam is most commonly used for breath-holding attacks, seizure disorder (epilepsy), antinauseant, dizziness (vertigo), a learning disorder marked by difficulty reading (dyslexia), nootropic, cortical myoclonus, and a movement disorder often caused by antipsychotic drugs (tardive dyskinesia).
Piracetam has been used to study crystal structure and physicochemical properties of six co-crystals of piracetam. It has also been used to study its in vitro antioxidant properties.
Piracetam is a synthetic derivative of the neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA). GABA is responsible for blocking specific brain signals and reducing activity in your nervous system. This helps it produce a calming effect, watering down feelings of fear, stress, and anxiety.
However, piracetam affects your body in a different way than GABA. Instead of impeding certain brain signals and decreasing activity in the nervous system, piracetam works by restoring the fluidity of your cell membranes, wherever they are in your body.
