Ondansetron
Nauseous? You won’t be for long if you take ondansetron.
Where do you get it?
It’s by prescription only, but is an inexpensive prescription.
My wife has been on 8mg twice daily (oral dissolving and tabular at different times) + domperidone and it’s still not altered a chronic nausea that started at pregnancy. Little ones second birthday in a week, not a day without throwing up within minutes of eating or drinking anything at all - paramedics called it a starvation diet.
Not that there’s anything you can do, just getting increasingly desperate and throwing this out there in case anyone has anything to relate to this.
Super glad it’s working for you though - it’s a wonder drug for so many people!
Heads up to anyone with cardiac issues, especially long QT syndrome or other meds that prolong the QT internal: Ondansetron is so notorious for QT prolongation and cardiac arrhythmia problems that we have to perform an EKG before we’re allowed to give you a second dose on our cardiac unit.
I have scary anecdotes that bias me against it lol
A relatively niche case, to be sure, but thank you for pointing it out.
Yeah, long QT syndrome is estimated around 1/2000 people. Relatively rare. I fully confess that I’m just traumatized by my personal experiences with patients taking the drug lol
Phenibut
Helps relieve anxiety and eases social contact. For me personally its just a mood enhancer and makes listening to music so good. About 500-1500mg is a normal dose, lasts for up to 24h and should not be taken more often than once a week.

Sumatriptan
Rapidly cures migraines.
Coenzyme Q10
Energy, mitochondrial support, antioxidant
Personally, I think everyone should be taking this. Extremely safe, improves cardiac outcomes, some evidence that it can reverse damage in chronic kidney disease. Most people won’t feel different, but I take high dose CoQ10 for mitochondrial dysfunction, and I can tell you it definitely has a huge impact. Love this stuff.
DMT (dimethyltryptamine)

Apigenin (herbal supplement)
Insomnia, anxiety
Derived from chamomile flowers (and other plant sources), I’ve found this to be more successful in treating my chronic insomnia than any of the pharmaceutical options. (And believe me, I’ve tried them all.)
Phenmetrazine (Preludin)
[placeholder for substance of interest]
Baclofen
If someone wants to do one for baclofen that might be interesting both on its own and in comparison to other β-GABA ligands like Phenibut/GHB/GBL/etc. i’m too tired rn but they are a fascinating class of sedatives
Memantine

Guanfacine (Intuniv)

CBG For migraines Works as well as my prescriptions work less side effects. Many people use it as a preventative.
