Vinpocetine naturally gets me rattling off at the mouth. Also I have an almost physical connection with sound in its presence. It seems to increase my attention to sound, with a special affinity towards high frequency noises.
Don't take Vinpocetine with Ephedra!
It made me temporarily deaf. The effect seems to come and go but under slight agitation, such as in a social situation, I lost my ability to hear. A pressurized feeling may be felt in the ears.
I tried various ephedrine products to see whether it was the ephedra or the mixture I took. Its definetly the ephedra, if you wanna have a pressurized and deafening experience that can leave you with ringing ears matching the intensity of a black cat going off next to your head this mixture is for you. Oh yeah the experience is temporary, but can leave residual soreness.
While this report may have excited you, there are some cautions I suggest as precautions in the presence of these two chemicals:
1. whatever you do don't stand on your head, this seems to be very damaging to the ears.
2. don't listen to loud music, it feels good, but may make the condition worse.
3. small amounts may be tolerable (no deafness), but large amounts of vinpocetine will bring it on.
