If you’ve used any nootropic supplement before, you’ll be aware of Noopept. This smart drug sells on the mere assumption that it’s potent and can rapidly improve your cognitive performance. Is that true? Is Noopept safe?

In this article, we take an in-depth look into Noopept, it’s purported benefits, legal status, and alternatives. We’ll also explore some questions users have and their answers.

• Noopept is a synthetic smart drug also known as N-phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ethyl ester.
• Although Noopept has nootropic properties, it requires more research to see just how beneficial these properties are.
• You can take Noopept as an oral, sublingual, or megadose.
• Depending on your country or territory, Noopept may be unregulated, controlled, or banned.
• Noopept is available for sale as a supplement across different marketplaces online.

Just like with other popular nootropics, Noopept benefits you by enhancing your cognitive function, improving your memory consolidation and recall, reducing brain fog, and helping to regulate your moods.

As a cognitive stimulant, Noopept claims to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-anxiety effects, while also improving blood flow to the brain. 

These three factors can also reduce neurotoxicity, preventing free radicals from destroying neurons and other cells in your brain. Noopept, in this right, also claims to help fight mild cognitive disorders and diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. 

Piracetam and Noopept have similar mechanisms of action, according to many studies that have compared the two. However, Noopept is 1000 times stronger, and requires much smaller doses for similar effects [1].

Potential Benefits

Several preliminary studies have investigated the potential benefits of using Noopept. None of them, however, give any firm conclusions on the safety or efficacy of its use. 

That’s why the benefits below are still tentative. Plenty of clinical research is underway to confirm them.
