Hello, I am looking for information on Hydergine(Ergoloid Mesylates) and Piracetam (Nootropil). Hydergine has been researched in European countries, and is said to be able to prevent damage to brain cells, and even reverse existing damage. It apparently mimicks the effects of a substance called Nerve Groth Factor. This stimulates protein sythesis that results in growth of Dendrites in brain cells. Hydergine is available in the UK, Mexico, and in the States with a perscr- iption. Is it available in Canada? What restriction are applied to it? Piracetam is used in the treatment of stroke, alcoholism, vertigo, senile dementia, and other conditions. It is said to promote flow of information btween the two hemispheres of the brain. It is available over the counter in Mexico. Is it available in Canada? What restrictions are applied to it? Please, If you have any information about these two drugs, e-mail it to me or post it for me to read. It would be greatly appreciated. Jesse L. Glasner e-mail cz531@freenet.carleton.ca -- "O dreadful the check - intense the agony When the ear begins to hear and the eye begins to see When the pulse begins to throb, and the brain to think again The soul to feel the flesh, and the flesh to feel the chain."
