Slight Nausea
Vinpocetine
Citation:   kidkodine. "Slight Nausea: An Experience with Vinpocetine (exp96738)". Erowid.org. Jun 2, 2013. erowid.org/exp/96738

 
DOSE:
5 mg oral Vinpocetine
BODY WEIGHT: 180 lb
Normal morning. Green protein shake. 1 cup of coffee. Part of daily supplements is a Triple Genseng product that contains Eleuthero Root and Gotu Kola. Never a problem for several years. Added 5mg of Vinpocetine this time.

Onset of Digestive distress and slight anxiety begin 2 hours after ingestion. Slightly unpleasant. Flushing similar to Niacin. Vinpocetine is a vasodiliator after all. Hard to concentrate. (odd for something that is supposed to aid concentration although it could have been the anxiety) Effect greatly diminished after 4 hours.

I intend to try this again but without the the Triple genseng product and with a full stomach to validate its effectiveness.
