Where do you buy phenylpiracetam?  That must be rather expensive.

Phenylpiracetam and piracetam are fine together; although one of the 
avantages of phenylpiracetam over piracetam is that it does not induce 
sedation as piracetam does.  I vaguely remember this having to do with 
piracetam being a weak prolactin agonist, but I may be in error.

There is an optimal amount of piracetam and phenylpiracetam to take; 
more than this will actually decrease memory performance.  It can be 
difficult to find an optimal dose as the subjective effects of piracetam 
do not appear until the optimal dose has been exceeded.  Also some 
studies show that some of the effects of piracetam on verbal memory and 
retention do not manifest fully until after two weeks of supplementation.

Have you tried modafinil; how does it compare to phenylpiracetam?
