Hi all - I have some sarcosine I bought like in 2017 or something. Do you think it would still be OK to take it now?
It should have an expiration date on it. Do not use expired medication.
Thanks, I am asking about actual experiences here though. I would love it if I didnāt have to wait weeks for a new order being shipped.
I highly recommend not taking expired medication just because a stranger on the internet said they also did it once.
If they say it worked for them and the effect of the sarcosine was retained too I would do it in a heartbeat. The expiry date isnāt the Bible on when something goes actually bad. Itās often more to do with legal regulations than anything.
Then you are free to make your own decisions. I can only highly recommend not taking expired medication based on the advice from people on the internet. If you are curious, you can call a pharmacist.
Thanks for the tip. I doubt they really know what sarcosine is here, but I can give that a try.
One more thing. Sarcosine is NOT a medication. Itās a supplement.
Supplements are just as potent and potentially dangerous as medications but arenāt as heavily regulated.
Well sarcosine for me gave no side effects like medications did. I ordered mine from BrainVitaminz btw. It says somewhere on their site that the shelf life is around 1.5 years. So hmm ā¦ For now Iām trying betaine anyway, that one didnāt expire yet. What Iām trying to do is get the same effect I did from sarcosine a long time ago (2016), like my brain was suddenly able to remember how certain things worked before and pick up on new things instead of things getting suffocated in some weirdness. Just more able to stay in reality really.
Amazon has some good sarcosine with Prime 2 day shipping.
If you canāt find it anywhere and can wait, there is a lot on eBay. I bought the cheapest which is from chinese labs, 250g for 20$ free shipping.
i wouldnāt buy on ebay or trust ebay for supplementsā¦
Many big supplement companies who also have a website sell on ebay. Nothing to worry about.
Thanks for the tips! Iām not in the USA or UK though.
Weird I just searched and not many sarcosine on ebay. They even removed mine, I bought it last month. Its because of corona.
DMG 125 mg supplement is widely available its a partial agonist at the NMDA receptor site while sarcosine is a full agonist.
