Tbh my first week on Adamax + Synapsin combo for focus and brain fog

Posted by hank_m in Cognitive & Nootropic - 3 points, 6 comments.

Tbh i started Adamax on day one, 1 spray in each nostril twice a day, and noticed a lift in focus almost immediately, but my nose was irritated and i got a mild headache every night, which was a bit annoying. After a few days i added Synapsin – a nasal spray with Rg3, NAD+ and methylcobalamin – 2 sprays per nostril, twice daily. I was hoping it’d help the brain fog i get after a long writing session, and it pretty much did.

I felt clearer, my mental clarity improved by about 15‑20% in my eyes, and the headache eased up after the first week. I also noticed a slight taste change in my mouth, which went away after a few days. The only thing i’m still tweaking is the timing – maybe spacing Adamax and Synapsin 30 minutes apart to reduce nasal irritation. I’m curious if anyone else has tried this combo and what their experience was, or if they’ve found a sweet spot for dosing.

  • ivy_mobility: I tried Adamax alone for a few days last month and noticed a quick lift in alertness but also a dry, sore feeling in my nostrils after each spray. Adding a low dose of NAD+ nasal spray (not Synapsin but similar) helped clear the irritation and seemed to smooth out the focus boost without the nightly headache I got before. I kept a simple log of reaction time tests and felt about a 10% edge on the mornings I spaced the two sprays 20 minutes apart. Have you tracked any objective metrics like react
  • greg208: Not gonna lie I haven’t tracked HRV yet, but I do jot down a quick thought‑score each morning. I’ve noticed a tiny lift when I space the sprays, but I’d love to see if reaction time actually improves with that 20‑minute gap. Have you tried any objective bumps?
  • kayla_s: I didn’t bother with HRV, but I did do a quick reaction‑time test in the mornings. When I spaced Adamax and the NAD+ spray 15‑20 minutes apart, my screen‑to‑click lag dipped about 8‑10 %. It seemed to smooth the lift a bit. How did your log look for reaction times?
  • hank_m: Tbh i did a quick reaction‑time run each morning too, using that same 1‑click test you mentioned, and i saw a dip of about 8–10 % when i spaced the sprays 30 minutes apart – my baseline was around 320 ms, it slid to roughly 310 ms, similar to your 8‑10 % notice. I’m still testing if the 30‑minute buffer keeps the nasal burn down while keeping the lift – did you notice any lag difference if you tried 20 min?
  • hank_m: Tbh i did a quick reaction‑time thing after the first week, just tap the screen as fast as i could on a phone app, and i saw a 20‑30 ms drop in the average click time when i spaced the sprays 20 Expired minutes apart, so the tiny lift you mentioned does show up if you measure it that way, but i haven’t hit the same consistency as the subjective lift, so i’ll keep testing the gap and see if the timing changes my focus over longer writing sessions.
  • hank_m: Tbh i tried a quick reaction test with a phone tap when a light flashed and got a ~50 ms drop when i spaced the sprays 30 min apart – same as your 20 min split, but the daily variation still feels normal. I haven’t done HRV yet, but i’m getting a cheap wristband to log it next week – will see if the timing really shifts the numbers. Also that taste shift went away after a few days, so i’ll keep an eye on that too.
