    With only 6 mg of Solian I am having prolactin in range, at the end of the year I had 16.80 ng/mL. I tolerate reasonably noisy situations so 6mg is my dose.

    Do benzodiazepines twice a week create addiction?

    Amisulpride — A Multipurpose Drug for ME/CFS

    With 4 mg of Solian I have finally given prolactin in the range, 15, and I have returned to having a normal sexual desire for my age and better erections than with high prolactin. I remember that I have reached 86 due to Solian and my sexuality was zero. The problem now is that my noise...

    Amisulpride — A Multipurpose Drug for ME/CFS

    Taking 8 mg of Amisulpride plus Mucuna Pruriens, my prolactin does not drop below 40. Now I will take 4 mg of Amisulpride daily to see what happens. I don't think anyone has taken such low doses.

    Amisulpride — A Multipurpose Drug for ME/CFS

    Some time later I still do not gain weight, I take approximately 10mg. I want to ask you about a matter that worries me. If Amisulpride temporarily blocks dopamine receptors, wouldn't it be good to separate the Abilify intake from the Amisulpride intake by 12 hours? Or better together? @Hip...

    Amisulpride — A Multipurpose Drug for ME/CFS

    I don't quite know where to put this, but since my dosage of Amisulpride is going to be exceptionally low I am putting it here. If I should open an exclusive thread for my treatment let me know. As unbelievable as it sounds due to living in Africa (Canary Islands) I have not been able to get...

    "Equivalent levels of vitamin E in the blood are obtained with 100 mg of natural vitamin E and 300 mg of synthetic vitamin E. (Kiyose et al., 1997). The degree of excretion of the synthetic source is 3 times faster than that of natural vitamin E. (Traber et al., 1998)"

    Amisulpride — A Multipurpose Drug for ME/CFS

    A friend told me that the natural vitamin E is absorbed much more and the cheap one can be absorbed even less due to my poor methylation. I ordered 100 capsules of Solgar 400 IU for 18.38 euros.
