Comment:
I didn't notice much at first, but i was only taking 5 mg. I read an article which found the effectiveness started at 20 -40 mg./day. After starting 20 mg 2x daily I did notice: clearer and longer lasting focus, improved memory. It was even more noticeable when I ran out for a few weeks, then started again, noticing the improvement.

Comment:
I have used a softgel of Ginkgo 120 mg and Vinpocetine 5mg with good results; so good that I thought I would add a higher dose of vinpocetine to the mix. I was afraid I was going to die! Chest pain and atrial fib. MORE IS NOT BETTER
