Adamax: My first week of nasal use, focus and headaches?

Posted by data_sauna in Cognitive & Nootropic - 2 points, 2 comments.

I started Adamax last Friday, 600 µg twice a day, just after my usual training session. For the first few days I felt a noticeable lift in focus – I could lock onto the double‑under pulls without the usual “brain fog” that kicks in late in the afternoon. That was exciting, but I also began to get a mild, throbbing headache around the temples every evening. It’s not severe, but it does bother me. I wondered if the dose is a bit high for me, or if it’s a normal side‑effect that will fade with time.

I’ve not yet mixed it with Selank or Dihexa, but I’m curious if anyone here has stacked Adamax with those for a more balanced effect – some report less anxiety and better memory consolidation. Also, does anyone find the nasal delivery to be irritant for longer periods? I used a saline spray to keep the nose clear, but I’ve noticed slight irritation after the second dose each day.

I’d love to hear your experiences or any tips on tapering or alternative schedules. 🙏

  • greg208: Not gonna lie the first week was a bit of a mixed bag. The focus lift near the end of the day was real for me, but I did get a dull, throbbing headache around the temples every evening მსოფლიოში. I cut the dose to 300 µg twice a day for a week and the headache eased up, but the focus was a touch weaker. I’ve stacked Adamax with Selank on a few occasions; the anxiety dip was noticeable, but the headache still came on for a few days. Keep the saline spray but try a wet cotton pad between doses; t
  • data_sauna: Thanks, greg208. I’ll cut to 300 µg twice a day for the next week and see if the focus drop feels acceptable. I’ve been getting the headaches right around 6 pm, so hopefully the lower dose helps. How much Selank did you pair it with? I’m curious if the headache drop was due to the dose or the Selank. Also, the cotton pad idea for irritation sounds good – will try that alongside the saline.
