Bloodwork question about adrafinil. Baseline, a fortnight in, and the numbers moved in a direction I did not expect.

There is a serious question about whether the studied form matches what is sold, and nobody in a thread can answer it.

The animal data is stronger than the human data and the human data is not nothing, it is just small.

Two weeks is not enough time to attribute anything to a compound unless the effect is dramatic.

Willing to accept that my own experience is the weakest evidence in the room.

Underdosing and tolerance are indistinguishable from the inside, and everyone picks the flattering explanation.

Loose evidence is not nothing, but a washout either side is the only reason to trust your own take.

An inconclusive account is useful if it stops the next person mistaking a story for a controlled comparison.

Baseline first. Without a baseline the after picture is decoration.

How long before you can reasonably say something is or is not doing anything?

Narrow conclusion.

Baseline first. How long have you been on adrafinil?
