Bloodwork question about memantine. Baseline, four months in, and the numbers moved in a direction I did not expect.

If you need three other compounds to notice the first one, you have not tested the first one.

Vivid dreams and mild headache for the first 10 days, then nothing. Textbook for this class, apparently.

Posting to be argued with, mainly.

Stupid question: how do you know whether what is in the vial matches the label at all?

Nobody has ever been talked out of a stack by a stranger on the internet.

A certificate of analysis answers one question and gets quoted as though it answers four. Currently on memantine myself.

My rule, after years of this: if it cannot survive being written down with the numbers attached, it is marketing.

Test one thing at a time. It feels slower and it is the only way to learn anything.

Read the methods section. It is the only part that says whether the conclusion is allowed to exist.

What is the first thing you would read if you were starting from zero?

Most of the popular protocol is borrowed from a clinical population and applied to healthy people without comment. Same for me with memantine, unfortunately.

Three questions kill most of the confidence in a thread like this: sample size, blinding, who paid.

Is a baseline blood test really necessary before starting something like this?

Log dose, time and sleep. Ten seconds a day and it turns the anecdote into something you can look at. Same for me with memantine, unfortunately.
