60 pills over 7 weeks? thats less than 2 cups of coffee a day, less than the average coffee consumption per day amongst coffee drinkers. what are u worrying about?

Crush it up and dissolve it in water. Inject it through your temple.

halcyonsky i'd say 60 pills over 2 weeks is massive given that a pill is supposed to have the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee, and the "average" coffee drinker drinks about 3 cups a day, AND s/he's experiencing side effects.

oh and benji, i don't reckon no doz plus is much better than your run of the mill no-doz, since it has the same amount of the active igredient caffeine. you could also save yourself some money by buying it in bottles instead of boxes, but hey remember all things in moderation ;)

heyya. caffeine doesn't improve your memory or concentration. i have tried the herb called 'gingko biloba'. i noticed some effects of it were pain and discomfort.. for girls. but its apparently good for concentration. But it also has other side effects because it improves circulation.. so you make bleed alot if you have any clotting difficulties if you get a scratch.

no-doz pretty much has the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee.. ive taken 10 at a time.. and i couldn't sleep! i find them terrible! i only take them if i need to work (part time job) alot..

yeah i get headaches and thirsty sometimes...i know im addicted to caffiene and i try to cut down but sometimes when im really tired and still have to do stuff it's just the best thing in the world. i know technincally it doesn't wake you up but i feel like i can face the world so yeah. probably a placebo effect, though.

it doesnt wake you up, no, but it does give you the feeling that you're more awake. you're just prolonging a lack of sleep!

i bet if you reorganise yourself and time prioritise and get enough sleep you'll find you'll get a heap more done!

Serious? I always thought I was an average coffee drinker. Guess my 5 cups a day says otherwise. Oh and the no doz, but that was just for exams.

nodoz=legalised speed, friend took it for trials, weekend after the bulk of his exams he crashed out hard, didnt sleep for 3 days straight, he didnt wake up at all

haha just hit the books hard, its better to stay up 2-4 hours than ur desired bed time but dont go off the top with it.

i think consistent consumption of the drug would shorten ur lifespan

When I took my first no-doz, I was so alert and pumped up my hands were shaking.. and that's just one pill for someone that doesn't take caffine usually.. and yeah, I was so high I wanted to do other things besides study.. like jump around n shit..
i took my first one today and thats exactly what happened to me

Half life of caffeine is about 5 hours, so you've only got about a quarter of what you started with (i.e., not much.) Could you just be, idk, not tired because its middle of the day...
