Fipexide - Caveat lector
So far, little is known about the effects of this
cognitive enhancer, which is also known by the
names Attentil, BP 662, and Vigilor. Whereas
most nootropics improve both learning and recall,
fipexide helps learning but not recall. Nootropics
in the pyrrolidone family work by affecting the
parts of the nervous system that use
acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter. Fipexide
works by slightly increasing the amount of the
neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. With
more dopamine, there is better motor
coordination, an improved immune system, more
motivation to act, and a better emotional balance,
all of which might contribute to the kind of mental
fine tuning that promotes learning.
