> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PiracetamThere's a way of reading a monograph that teases out information that really isn't overt. If you read the contraindications, they mention one as being hypersensitivity to this med and its class. It may be "boiler-plate" legal language, but it could be covering up the fact that some people have severe adverse reactions to this substance.
I'm not saying don't do it, but really watch your dose and the effect, okay? Don't even consider taking a "normal" dose.
