DOPADEX - Dosage details for a newbie

G'day everyone,

I recently purchased the PES 'Muscle Hardening Stack' from Nutraplanet that had a bottle of DOPADEX included.

I've had a quick flick through the forums and what I can understand it can possibly elevate mood, increase HGH levels and provide a better nights sleep?

It's a completely new thing to me so I don't know what to expect and how to approach this supp and just wanted to some advice on best times for maximum effects, dosage, if there is anything I should avoid taking with the Dopadex tabs and what I could expect in regards to positive benefits and negative side effects if I'm doing it right/wrong.

I will be starting my PES stack next week (ABE, EP, Alphamine + DAA) and thought in the meantime I could start introducing this into my daily routine.

So far, I have taken one pill upon waking with my WPC+Creatine shake... Prepare my Amino Acid and Beta Alinine Intra-workout drink and pretty much get straight into the warm up and my lifts. I then have been taking another before bed, but I'm considering doing two before bed...?

Appreciate everyone's input and advice! Cheers :D
 
It's an empty stomach supplement so I wouldn't take it with your whey. However, it would be really good before bed as it'll promote GH release and make for better quality sleep.

Thanks bro.

So, should I wait until early morning to take my first dose? Maybe an hour or so before lunch? ...or not bother at all.

Do you think taking 2 caps before bed is ok or should I stick with just 1?

I wouldn't build your entire morning around it. Start with one at night and progress to two if needed.

I've asked Coop about this and he says there is no need to take it on a empty stomach...

If you're gonna paraphrase, do it right :).

I said that it won't affect the efficacy of the L-dopa in the long-run. Taking it on an empty stomach may reduce headaches in users that are prone. For a beginner, it's best to start on an empty stomach and experiment later.

It can be dosed morning or night. Expect, in about 2 weeks, an improvement in mood, libido, orgasm intensity, sleep depth, and GH + T elevation. Avoid taking it with vitamin B6

Thanks man.

I took it before bed last night, and I don't know if I was just tired or this stuff hit me quickly, but when my alarm went off this morning I felt like I could have slept another 8 hours... Considering I train in the morning, it's not the best feeling tbh! haha.

I'll do it again tonight and see if I feel the same way and then might look at taking it in the morning instead because the last thing I want is to be drowsy and sluggish under the bar.
 
It's one of my favorite supplements I've used, I typically take 1-2 before bed for the sleep and slight mood benefits.

I'm hearing a lot of positive things regarding this supp, so I have high hopes it will help. If I get a mood increase and nothing else I will rate it.

Do you find that you wake up a little slower or feel more sluggish when taking them before bed?

Nope, but then again I typically sleep till I want to. When taken I feel way more refreshed the next day with a lot more natural energy.

Felt a bit slow again this morning after taking them.

Maybe it's because I usually sleep around 6 - 7 hours per night max and the Dopadex is making me want 8 - 9 hours instead?

Might have to pull my bedtime back an hour or so... All I'll be missing out on will be mind-numbing TV anyway :P

Hey Coop,

Is this Dopadex something I can run continuously or only for say, 8 weeks at a time before taking a break?

Also, can I go 7 days a week on it or is it recommended to have a day off each week?

Appreciate your feedback :)

Take 2 Dopas with a GDA like glycophase and you'll have the best sleep.

Cool, thanks... Will this also have an effect of fat loss etc. or simply provide better sleep and therefore, better recover and growth?

I will be taking Anabeta Elite, Erase Pro, Alphamine and DAA shortly (just waiting on the alphamine to arrive!) and so I have to ask if this Glycophase addition would hinder my stack or have any negative effects when mixed with these other supps?
 
I've not tried dopadex yet but I've heard nothing but great things, has anyone compaired it with powerfull? I'd like to toss one in the cart on my next order
 
I never noticed much from powerfull. I've been taking the dopadex for a little over a week now and im a believer. 2 Dopadex +1g agmatine + zma +5mg melatonin 30 mins before bed. FANTASTIC sleep from day 1. Last few days have noticed an increase in libido as well.

Bouncing out of bed in the morning or feeling like you could just sleep all day?

I need to research this Agmatine more as I keep seeing/hearing it but don't know anything about it to be honest.

I must say, even with the 1 Dopadex my sleep has been more solid. I use a sleep cycle app and have noticed more 'efficiency' with my sleeping since introducing it. I have longer periods of REM/Deep sleep throughout the night.
 
definitely could sleep more. I've never gotten out of bed easily though. examine has a good write up/studies on agmatine for your research purposes.
 
Just an update to anyone following this or considering getting their hands on some Dopadex, I would recommend it, even though I'm still only about a week in so expecting even more results come another week of using it.

I am definitely getting deeper, better sleep while supplementing with Dopadex. According to my sleep cycle app, my 'efficiency' has increased from low - mid 80's on average up to as much as 94% and starting to notice that my mood is improving day by day, which may be attributed to this too.

Can't complain with that! :D

Thanks for the update, I'm following along even though not always posting.

Ahh, cool! :D

I don't think for this it's necessary for me to post every day but I'll make note of any major changes or benefits/side effects etc.

Really enjoying the PES products so far, I can't wait for my ABE and EP to start kicking in :P

On a side note, you can literally taste how potent that EP is as soon as you put it in your mouth huh?! ;)

EP dries me out pretty quick, definitely a product I notice working relatively fast.

Thanks for the kind words and support.

Can you explain why avoid taking L-dopa with vitamin B6?

I ask this cause SNS Inhibit P actually contains huge amounts of vit B6 and also contains l-dopa.

The inhibit-p formula doesnt make sense to me.More (ingredients) is not always better

Huge amounts of B6...tiny amounts of l-dopa. Dopadex is pure l-dopa. You will want to avoid b6 to prevent peripheral dopamine conversion
