Semax vs Adamax, anyone actually tried both back to back?

Posted by curious_protocol in Cognitive & Nootropic - 1 points, 2 comments.

So I've been running Semax nasal for a few months now and I really do feel like the focus piece is there for me, like the first 2 hours after a dose I'm locked up on whatever I'm reading. But I keep seeing folks talk about Adamax as like the "better Semax" with longer action.

For those of you who have actually tried both, how do they compare for you in real world use? Like did Adamax feel cleaner, or just longer? I'm curious about the mood side too because some days on Semax I get kinda flat, not bad just not as up as I'd want.

Also curious about timing of doses. I do Semax once in the morning and sometimes a small one early afternoon if I have a lot of reading. Is Adamax something I'd dose similar or is it more of a once a day thing?

Fwiw I do alright on Semax, no real sides except sometimes a dull headache if I forget water. Just wondering if Adamax is worth exploring or if I'm chasing something that aint really there.

• katie_reads: I haven't tried Adamax yet, ngl that's why I'm lurking here for takes too. But the flatness thing on Semax, I get that, and it usually goes away for me if I skip a dose or two and then come back. Have you noticed that pattern or is it more constant for you? 3% or the higher 1%? I keep wondering if the concentration changes the mood piece since the 1% feels punchier to me but also more uneven day to day.
• tired_grinder: Honestly for me skipping makes it worse, i get kinda foggy the next day if i stop. So i just keep a low dose every day. You using the 0.1 or the 1%? I only tried 1% so far and yeah its punchy but some days it feels too much, like wired but not focused?
