NeuroProtek, how long before one starts noticing effect?

I'm asking for a severely ill friend. She writes:
I have just begun taking NeuroProtek for suspected mast cell activation. How long should I try it before deciding whether it's been helpful or not (i.e. how long before I should notice an effect)?

(I am also since before taking antihistamines and Singulair.)

Many thanks in advance! :)

When Googling, I found this:
NeuroProtek® folder said:
How long before I can expect to see results?
As each individual differs, results may differ. Depending upon the severity of the symptoms and the age of
the person taking NeuroProtek®, it may take at least 6 months before any significant benefit may be seen..

Those of you who have tried NeuroProtek, what was it like for you?

I noticed a difference within a few days. It was mild, but helped the antihistamines work better. My biggest result was with mental clarity. I have been on neuroprotek two months now.

Ketotifen gave me a much better (and much needed) positive response. I have only been on this two weeks.

What symptoms does your friend have?

I have taken NeuroProtek for over a year and the flavonoids (I think that is the right word?) of Rutin, Quercetin and Luteolin are all very helpful.

In my case I also take two other brands of Quercetin plus Daosin (all started at approx same time) so no way to know which is doing what!

im afraid I didn't get on with it well - headaches and a wired feeling. I meant to go back and try it again as its really expensive, but haven't so far.

That's too bad and I never had any side effects from NeuroProtek. I wonder what it was that caused the headache and wired feeling? I guess it's possible to try again and see if you get that same feeling but if you do, I definitely would not mess with it. We are all so different!

I felt it immediately. Within hours. I was able to quit taking hypothalamus glandular after my first dose of NP. I never took as much as suggested. One or 2/day. very helpful for me.
