    I had to come off of my myalgia medication to take this, but my memory was so bad that I decided to risk it.

    I've been taking Rexall Ginkgo Biloba 120mg once a day for over 10 years now. I do technical work and I've noticed it does help my memory especially names and locations. Now that I'm in my 50's I'm considering upping my dosage.
