Anyone any experience of this stuff?
I've just taken order of some (supposedly better side-effect profile than Eldepryl(?), Jumex etc.), only trouble is the instructions are in Mexican & the dropper has no calibration.
From what I can make out 12ml contains 300mg/selegeline & so a 5mg daily dose would = 0.2ml. I also get the impression that 1 'drop' = 1mg but this seems a little imprecise to me.
Could anyone tell me where I might obtain an accurate dropper/pipette? Searches on the net have proved fruitless. Yr average pharmacy jobbie tends to go to 5/10ml.
Any help b4 I poison myself would be appreciated!
Ta,
Jah.

is it from DEDI (Discovery Experimental & Decelopment?
1 drop=1ml
Strange, the label I have is in English

It's made by Cyto-Pharma, Mexico under license, I think, from DEDI.

I am sorry! I meant 1drop=1mg
I think you have a similar product. My bottle contains 300mg (does not say how many ml)
1mililiter contains around 22 drops I think
It makes no sense to buy a dropper, all dropa are equal.For exact liquid meassure you can buy a pipette, bus is no sense.
What is importan is the mg/ml percentage and that is in the label

Hi Maniz.
How do/did you take yr LDC? Under the tongue?
Did you get any positive benefit from LDC (dose?) & if so, did you compare it with regular Deprenyl?
I'd also be interested in what symptoms drove you to try LDC in the first place.
Thanks,
Jah.

I tried it because I read it heps with motivation. Difficult to tell if of help.
Do you know youc an refrigerate it to prolong useful life (dont know how much)?. You can even freeze it -NOT the dropper.
Yes I tried it under the tongue (one or two drops) and in liquid. It tastes good enough.
I got some not clear effect, like feeling sleepy sometimes, especially in the 3-5mg dose.
Deprenyl works as a MAOIB at a certain dose and at higher doses as a MAOIA too.
Did you get the dose panphlet?

How long did you take it for? AndrewB suggested a 45 day+ trial @ 5mg/day (=5 drops) might be in order for certain individuals.
> Do you know youc an refrigerate it to prolong useful life (dont know how much)?. You can even freeze it -NOT the dropper.Yeah, kinda figured that from Mexican labelling, thanks.
