Seriously asking. I just found out a family member has been secretly injecting cortexin and im honestly bewildered. This stuff isnt approved for use in my country. It isnt regulated or tested for quality as a result here. No doctor oversight.

From what ive read the benefits/results are minor and debatable at best. So why on earth would anyone gamble with their life and health by injecting unregulated substances shipped from another country that has absolutely no culpability if anything goes wrong?

Just wanted to see if anyone has experience using cerebrolysin or any other peptide for Neuro Rehab.

I have a brain Avm which has been treated but due to previous brain swelling I have left sided weakness. I am hoping to use this peptide to aid my recovery alongside starting private physiotherapy does anyone have any advice on peptides either cerebrolysin or any other peptides that may help ?
Thank you.

I did not intentionally abuse inhalants, just wanted to clarify that. It was unintentional inhalation of vapors from things like wood stain and Lysol (I used to spray myself in the shower with Lysol due to OCD).

Marijuana, however, I used maybe about seven times total from ages 17-19. A few of those times were very high doses, and one of them was THC-O instead of regular THC.

I’m 22 now, and ever since I used marijuana, I’ve felt like I’ve gotten dumber. Less able to think clearly, it’s like thinking with a dull knife. Those vapors I inhaled could’ve contributed, too.

So I’ve been thinking about Cerebrolysin, but I wonder if it can reverse inhalant-induced damage, as well as marijuana-induced damage.

I’m also hesitant to use it because I don’t want to screw myself up. I’ve read it’s prescribed in several European countries, which seems to imply safety. Still, I’m hesitant and would like to ask your experiences (I’ve read some already but would still like to ask, especially for drug-induced damage).

If I do use it, I might do it intravenously above my left elbow. I’ll swab the site with alcohol, but should I flame sterilize the needle or just wipe it with alcohol?

So tl;dr: can it reverse inhalant-induced and marijuana-induced damage? Has it done so for you? And did you have any adverse reactions? Were your improvements permanent?

TL;DR: I’m starting a Cerebrolysin cycle and trying to document it in a useful, grounded way. Day 1 was 8 mL IM instead of the planned 10 mL because I had trouble extracting the full ampule and had a vasovagal response during the second injection. No clear cognitive or emotional effects yet, though I did sleep unusually long that night.

Background

Demographics:
43 years old
Male
140 lbs
American
White

Issues:
I am generally healthy, but I have struggled with cognitive, and emotional issues my whole life. My motivation is inconsistent. My personal organization is weak. Some days it feels like I never really wake up. Over the years, I have made progress on these problems, but I still feel like my biggest obstacle is my own mind.

History of nootropics and psychedelics:
I discovered ayahuasca in my mid-twenties. It helped me a lot. In fact, it saved my life. Only recently have I ventured into the world of nootropics in an effort to address these issues. Some have had profound effects. Others haven’t had any noticeable effect at all.

Current stack:
I am phasing out all nootropics except tea, alpha GPC, creatine, and fish oil. I also take enclomiphene for testosterone support, a multivitamin, and magnesium glycinate. I am on a low dose of retatrutide and winding down a cycle of MOTS-C.

Day 1

July 2

Injection:
8 mL intramuscular

I had trouble getting all 10 mL out of the ampule and into two 5 mL syringes. I got 6 mL into the first syringe and about 3 mL into the second. I have longer filter needles being delivered Monday, July 6, so I’ll wait until then before trying again.

I’ve never done IM injections on myself before. The first injection went fine, but I started feeling lightheaded during the second. I have a strong vasovagal response. I stopped and pulled out the needle after only 2 mL. I sat back and let the feeling pass. Afterward, I threw the final 1 mL away, so I only took 8 mL total.

Effects:
I cannot say that I really felt much. I had a vague feeling of dissociation, but it was subtle, and I cannot say for sure that it was due to Cerebrolysin.

Later, I got the afternoon sleepies and took a 20-minute nap at about 6 p.m. That night I got 8 hours and 56 minutes of sleep. It’s unusual for me to sleep that much, but again, I cannot say for certain that it was from Cerebrolysin.

I’m dealing with a load of health issues.. mold toxicity, long covid, reactivated ebv, tons of neuro inflammation, history of long term benzo prescription , trauma etc. trying to get my health and life back. Have tried numerous other peptides with no luck. Is cerebro worth the hype?

I started my first ever prescribed cerebrolysin cycle.

I split up the 10 ml into 2 doses and chose the quad. I used 25mm needles. 1st injection probably went wrong into fat tissue. 2nd went into muscle. Now the 1st injection site is warm and a bit swolen probably bc of subq injection.

How f.... am I?

Best

I mixed Cerebroprotein Hydrolysate with BAC water, all was fine. Then the next day, after being in the refrigerator, I got some floaters.
Is there a way to avoid this? Should I mix with a different mixing solution?

I’m about to start my first Cerebrolysin cycle, and I’d like to document it in a way that the people find informative and entertaining.

I’m not looking for advice on dosing, stacking. I’m specifically asking how people would want this documented.

What information would you want me to track and report?

Some possibilities:

• mood
• sleep
• focus
• verbal fluency
• productivity
• side effects
• photos of the product, supplies, or process
• a daily log in a Google Doc, with Reddit posts as summaries

I want to track a few metrics in an objective way, and also include subjective assessments.

Would people prefer periodic updates, one full write-up at the end, or a linked Google Doc with more detailed notes?

Could it help? I feel like there’s a whole part of my brain shutted down, circuits not working or something. I am not the person I used to be before

Title

Had an opportunity to take EVER Pharma Cerebrolysin by intravenous administration. Plan is a starting dose of 10ml per day diluted in 100ml N.S.S over 15 minutes. This will be administered 5 days a week for the foreseeable future with a possibility to increase the dose depending on the outcome. Can’t see anyone else outside of a hospital setting who has used close to these doses or IV daily for weeks. Below in the following days I will give my honest review of the outcome. This treatment was started on 23/06/26.

Will be administering it IM.

Some of you may have seen a post regarding topbrainboosters as a source for cerebrolysin. I placed an order about a month ago to get some, as well as a few other nootropics. Everything arrived in about three weeks, highly recommend!

What metrics would you use to inform the ratios you’d employ? And what would those ratios be?

(Again, hypothetically, imagine a person has a highly irrational phobia of needles and passes out when they see them near their body)

It will be objectively funny if this community is resistant to experimentation because “you’re (hypothetically) wasting the nectar, bro bro”

Hey all. You probably saw a little while back a new store opening up, I decided to give them a shot and reached out to the OP, then placed an order. I'm not paid to post this, nor am I affiliated with them at all, sharing my experience as (I believe) one of their early customers.

To put it simply, the entire process was extremely easy and fast compared to other lead times that I've seen people talk about. The customer service was excellent, follow up and responses were always within 24 hours, usually under 12. All in all under a month from order to delivery.

Would recommend, it arrived as expected with zero issues. No red flags were encountered during the entire process, the person running it feels very genuine in their intention and business. I'll probably grab a couple of other things from them in the future when I am ready, they have an interesting catalog.

gonna do 50ml/5 days

after which i will take dihexa

and take the SAT and see if I can get a perfect score with baseline no studying as a 1450

I have 8 weeks

also taking tren on an 800 calorie diet so we will see

How painful is a daily IM shot of 10ml Cerebrolysin? I can do IM B12, so is it like that, just much much longer (time wise) or is it more painful? I’m waiting for my last shipment so I can start 10 ml 30 days, 5 on 2 off, but honestly petrified.
