Coluracetam COLU

A brain-supplement compound studied for boosting a nutrient uptake process in brain cells, with some early interest for depression. Human trial data are sparse and mostly unpublished, so it's harder to judge than older, more established brain supplements.

Also known as MKC-231, bci-540, Coluracetam [INN], MKC 231, coluracetamum, RefChem:127557, V6FL6O5GR7, Coluracetam (Standard)
