scopolamine does work

Posted by linkadge on October 27, 2014, at 17:57:32

I have been using the scopolamine patch for depression, when it gets particularly bad.

It seems to help depression and anxiety very quickly.

A bit of spaciness, but its not unpleasant.

It tends to work well when ones thoughts just keep going and attacking without end.

What is a scopolamine patch? Is it something you can buy over the counter in a drugstore, or do you need a prescription? I read the article on Wikipedia, but I am not familiar with this drug. Looks promising based on the Wikipedia article.

Would try and avoid anticholinergics on a frequent basis.. Mental impairment is a likelihood.

There are articles which I can pull up, if interested, as well as the fact that the great majority of drug testing done on rats wrt cognition begin with impairment via scopolamine administration.

It's true that the dose makes the poison, just saying that anticholinergics aren't looking good in the long term. Even with things such as nightly benadryl sleeping tabs.

It worked for me as well but the side effects (mostly cognitive in nature) were too much to deal with. I would be concerned with cycling on Spoc because it has well known withdrawal effects.
