How does Fasoracetam work? Mechanism of action The mechanism of action of fasoracetam is not entirely understood. It is however believed to regulate the release and production of the three most important neurotransmitters of the brain which include glutamate, cetylcholine, and GABA.

Balance Restoration to the Glutamate System The pure Nootropics fasoracetam is known to regulate some receptors of the brain for glutamate, a critical excitatory neurotransmitter important for all brain function’s aspects. Imbalances of glutamate are associated with a wide variety of mental and physical disorders, including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, ADHD, schizophrenia, depressive disorder, and epilepsy. Fasoracetam nootropics functions on glutamate receptor’s specific group known as metabotropic glutamate receptors or mGluRs that play a wide variety of roles in the brain and the body but are majorly involved in memory, anxiety, and learning. The only known metabotropic glutamate receptors are eight in number and they functions together to ensure maintenance of a delicate balance. Two of these mGluRs acts to boost neural excitation and the other six lowering neurotoxicity 1/3

risk by lessening neural excitation as required. In research studies involving animals, fasoracetam powder achieved to restore the work of two inhibitory metabotropic glutamate receptors, slightly reducing glutamate activity in the brain. However, fasoracetam may also regulate all the mGluRs, restoring balance to the whole glutamate system. This mechanism of action explains why fasoracetam adhd treatment gives perfect results. ADHD is highly associated with decreased glutamate levels, without functioning as an overall stimulant.

Acetylcholine roles Fasoracetam is a very powerful cholinergic. This means that it greatly boosts uptake of choline in the brain cortex and hippocampus. The additional choline produced is utilized by the brain to boost acetylcholine levels. Acetylcholine is a valuable neurotransmitter which has affects general memory, learning, and cognition. This type of cholinergic mechanism is typical for Piracetam, Aniracetam, and other Racetams. Actually, this is why racetams family of nootropics is so potent at enhancing cognition. Also, like most Racetams this mechanism leads to spending too much choline, which leads to headaches. That’s why it’s recommended that you take a choline stack when taking Racetams.

GABA Upregulation This nootropic has been proved to stimulate the activity of GABA-B receptors upwards. This makes more GABA available in the CNS (central nervous system) and the brain. Also, glutamate is the precursor to GABA, an essential inhibitory neurotransmitter which is associated with reducing anxiety, learning, promoting sleep, and has calming effects. The extra GABA, in combination with the glutamate receptors modulation, is how Fasoracetam powder relieves anxiety and depression increasing motivation and decreasing social inhibition. In research studies involving rats, this combined mechanism of action was seen crucial to the ability of subjects to overcome learned helplessness after fasoracetam treatment.
