I'm thinking of getting Piracetam and wondering if anyone knows if they need a prescription to be bought?
I'm currently on Lexapro so I guess I'll have to consult my doctor if combination is okay. Regardless, does anyone know if these can be bought in KL?
Edit: Please don't tell me to try Pharmaton or Ginkgo, or chicken essence. it doesn't work at all.

I hope it doesn't react, Lexapro makes me sleepy like crazy. 4 months still sleepy.

I would rather you seek medical advice when you're in your condition. Maybe a change of SSRIs

I used to manage nootropics, such as Nootropil.
First you have got the whole idea wrong. It is not about reaching potential. Nootropics mode of action is that it enhances blood circulation to the brain which in turn is supposed to increase brain activity through oxygen supporting the energy conversion process; and therefore it is marketed as a smart drug.

There is a real case. This uncle got brain cancer. After done chemo n loaded with high dosage of lingzhi, bee pollen and other nutrient, his cancer was cleared after 3 months. But after that, he back to his unhealthy lifestyle and unhealthy diet and reduce lingzhi dosage. Guess what. After some many months, the cancer relapsed! Only then he listen to advice to change lifestyle back and because the cancer is a relapsed, he has to increase lingzhi dosage and thankfully, his cancer cleared again. Hopefully after that, he will keep up his healthy diet and lifestyle.

Don't be dogmatic about it. Experiment what works for your unique biochemistry.
